In computer science and information science, an ontology encompasses a representation, formal naming and definition of the categories, properties and relations between the concepts, data and entities that substantiate one, many or all domains of discourse. These functions give researchers the possibility to select which type of bias they wish to compensate for, between two options. I hope there is some tools with r programming or something.

The topgo package is designed to facilitate semiautomated enrichment analysis for gene ontology go terms. Instead of sample randomization, it uses gene randomization, making it able to carry out accurate analyses of smaller datasets i. A powerful approach towards this end is to systematically study the differences in correlation between gene pairs in more than one distinct condition.
