phenotrex 0.6.0

Microbial Phenotype Prediction

End-to-end Microbial Phenotypic Trait Prediction.

Installation

$ pip install phenotrex[fasta]

Usage

Phenotrex is a component of the PhenDB web server, which performs phenotypic trait prediction on user-uploaded metagenomic bins. To try out phenotrex with PhenDB’s pre-trained and curated set of trait models, genomes may thus simply be submitted to PhenDB.

Basic Usage

To use a trained phenotrex model MY_TRAIT.pkl for prediction of a phenotypic trait with a given genome genome.fna:

$ phenotrex predict --classifier MY_TRAIT.pkl genome.fna > predictions.tsv

This yields a tabular file containing a prediction regarding the presence of the trait (YES or NO), as well as a confidence value the model ascribes to this prediction, ranging from 0.5 to 1.0.

Advanced Usage
