InMoose: the Integrated Multi Omic Open Source Environment

Project description

InMoose

InMoose is the Integrated Multi Omic Open Source Environment. It is a collection of tools for the analysis of omic data.

Currently it focuses on transcriptomic data.

Installation

You can install InMoose directly with:

pip install inmoose

Batch Effect Correction

InMoose provides features to correct technical biases, also called batch effects, in transcriptomic data:

  • for microarray data, InMoose supersedes pyCombat [1], a Python 3 implementation of ComBat [2], one of the most widely used tool for batch effect correction on microarray data.
  • for RNASeq, InMoose features a port to Python3 of ComBat-Seq [3], one the most widely used tool for batch effect correction on RNASeq data.

To use these functions, simply import them and call them with default parameters:

from inmoose.batch import pycombat, pycombat_seq

microarray_corrected = pycombat(microarray_data, microarray_batches)
rnaseq_corrected = pycombat_seq(rnaseq_data, rnaseq_batches)
  • microarray_data, rnaseq_data: the expression matrices, containing the information about the gene expression (rows) for each sample (columns).
  • microarray_batches, rnaseq_batches: list of batch indices, describing the batch for each sample. The list of batches should contain as many elements as the number of samples in the expression matrix.
