revigo-standalone


A standalone, offline version of the Revigo web application for reducing redundancy in long lists of Gene Ontology terms.

The Revigo web server at http://revigo.irb.hr/ offers a way to reduce long, unintelligible lists of Gene Ontology terms resulting from gene enrichment analysis, or similar. It accomplishes this goal by using semantic similarity between GO terms to eliminate redundant terms. Moreover, it can visualize the remaining terms in several ways. The algorithm is described in Supek et al. 2011, PLOS One.

The Revigo Standalone version performs the same computations as Revigo on the user's own computer and is interesting primarily for two reasons: * batch usage - processing many lists of GO terms * source code - use Revigo's routines in your own program

The Standalone outputs its results in tabular format; it does not visualize the data like the Revigo Web server does.

You can check out the Java sources via Subversion, or you can download a compiled version here. NOTE: this is a beta - use at own risk!

This repository does not contain the code to run the Revigo web server; if you're interested in modifying & running your own server, please contact Fran Supek.
