NEWS:
To obtain an executable version of RRHO, please contact the RRHO development.
An R package version of RRHO has been developed and is available via Bioconductor.
A <batch submit RRHO interface> is now available.

Manuscript

The RRHO algorithm allows for the comparison of two gene expression signatures. Each signature is processed as a ranked list based on expression differences between two classes of samples. The signatures can be input either as raw expression data and sample and class labels, or as a preranked gene list.

Species

This version of Rank Rank Hypergeometric Overlap (RRHO) currently recognizes only Mus musculus and Homo sapiens.

Rank rank options

The step size is used to bin the ranked items to improve the run time of calculating the hypergeometric distribution. An optimal step size is small enough to match the image resolution to the overlap patterns in the data, but large enough to reduce computational time. For gene expression data on the scale of 10,000-50,000 probes, we recommend a step size of 100-500.

Reverse rank lists will reverse the ranks of the items in one or both of the datasets.

In addition to the hypergeometric heat map, you may select two additional graphs:

Benjamini-Yekutieli multiple hypothesis correction can be applied.

The output can include a list(s) of the overlapping genes within the region(s) of maximal statistical overlap.
