staNMF.py

staNMF.py class includes the necessary methods to perform stability NMF on a user-specified .csv datase (see sourcecode/staNMF_Example for precise usage instructions)

staNMF_Example.py

Example of staNMF demonstrated on Wu et al.’s 2016 drosophila spatial expression data between K=15 and K=30; Generates sample factorizations, calculates instability index, and plots instability against K

staNMF_driver.py

Driver script to run staNMF in parallel; can be called from the command line using: python staNMF_driver.py <k1> <k2> <reps1> <reps2> <folder> <filename> <function> (See docstring for more specific instructions)

data/WuExampleExpression.csv

sample dataset (also available for download here)
