Large sets of data, like expression profile from many samples, require
analytic tools to reduce their complexity.
The Iterative Signature Algorithm (ISA) was designed to reduce the
complexity of very large sets of data by decomposing it into so-called
"modules". In the context of gene expression data these modules consist of
subsets of genes that exhibit a coherent expression profile only over a
subset of microarray experiments. Genes and arrays may be attributed to
multiple modules and the level of required coherence can be varied resulting
in different "resolutions" of the modular mapping. Since the ISA does not
rely on the computation of correlation matrices (like many other tools), it
is extremely fast even for very large datasets.
Contents
Software for Gene expression data
We developed the eisa
GNU R package to facilitate the modular analysis of gene expression data. The package uses standard BioConductor data structures and includes various visualization tools as well.
Requirements, download and installation
To use eisa
you will need a working GNU R installation.
As of the 23rd of April, 2010, the eisa
package is an official BioConductor package.
eisa
depends on a number of other R packages: isa2
, Biobase
, AnnotationDbi
, Category
, genefilter
, DBI
. The good news is that all these dependencies are installed automatically, and all you need to do is to start R and type in
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R") biocLite("eisa")
at your R prompt. See the eisa package page at the BioConductor website for details.
Alternatively, you can also download the package from here:
- Microsoft Windows (32 bit)
Download this file, save it in a temporary directory, and then start R. From the Packages menu choose 'Install packages from local zip files
' and select the saved file. - Microsoft Windows (64 bit)
Download this file, save it in a temporary directory, and then start R. From the Packages menu choose 'Install packages from local zip files
' and select the saved file. - Mac OSX (Leopard)
Download and install this file. - Linux and Unix systems, R source package
Download this file, save it in a temporary directory, and start R. Install the downloaded package using theinstall.packages()
function: give the full path of the saved file and use the 'repos=NULL
' argument ofinstall.packages()
.
License

Software for any tabular data
The ISA can be applied to identify coherent substructures (i.e. modules) from any rectangular matrix of data. You can use the isa2
R package for such an analysis.
Requirements
No additional R package is required to install and use isa2
. But on Linux and Unix systems you will need a C compiler to install it. E.g. on Ubuntu Linux you will need to install the build-essential
package.
Installation
The isa2
package is available from CRAN, the standard R package repository. You can install it on any platform that is supported by GNU R, e.g. Microsoft Windows, Mac OSX and Linux systems. To install it, start R and type in
install.packages("isa2")
at the prompt. On Linux and Unix-like systems, you will need a working C compiler for a successful installation.

You can download it from here. It also includes the implementation of the Ping-pong algorithm Kutalik2008NB. The "testPP.m" file explains how the algorithm is applied to a pair of toy data sets. To test the ISA functionalities, the "testISA.m" needs to be launched.
