Welcome

heatmap showing four biclusters BiBench is a Python library designed to simplify biclustering tasks. It provides the following features:

  • Supports many biclustering algorithms, and it is easy to add more.
  • Download gene expression data from the Gene Expression Omnibus.
  • Gene Ontology enrichment analysis.
  • Synthetic dataset generation.
  • Data transformation.
  • Results validation and visualization.

Typical usage often looks like this:


      > import bibench.all as bb         # import most commonly used functions
      > data = bb.get_gds_data('GDS181') # download gene expression dataset GDS181
      > data = bb.pca_impute(data)       # impute missing values
      > biclusters = bb.plaid(data)      # cluster with Plaid algorithm
      > bb.enrichment(biclusters[0],     # Gene Ontology enrichment analysis
                      data.annotation,
                      data.genes)
