GSEABase-package:
Gene set enrichment data structures and methods
Description
This package provides classes and methods to support Gene Set
Enrichment Analysis (GSEA). The GeneSet class provides a
common data structure for representing gene sets. The GeneColorSet
class allows genes in a set to be associated with phenotypes. The
GeneSetCollection class facilitates grouping together a list of related
gene sets. The GeneIdentifierType class hierarchy reflects how genes
are represented (e.g., Entrez versus symbol) in the gene
set. mapIdentifiers provides a way to convert identifiers in a set from one
type to another. The CollectionType class hierarchy reflects how the
gene set was made, and can order genes into distinct sets or
collections.
