General

Click on a button corresponding to a general annotation analysis process. Refer to the table below for guidance.

Process

Choose this process for...

Gene Set Enrichment

Performing an enrichment analysis by comparing columns of continuous statistics or measures with a column that defines a set of annotation categories

Gene Set Scoring

Transforming a tall data set with genes as rows into a tall data set with pathways or categories as rows, with relevance scores added based on individual deviations from a reference value for each gene

Tip: Output from this process can be used as input to processes in the Expression Quality Control and Differential Expression menus, as well as the Pattern Discovery and Predictive Modeling menus in order to perform category-based inference.

List Enrichment

Comparing a set of curated lists against a table of significance values, and testing for significant enrichment using Fisher’s exact test for association
