EnrichDO

EnrichDO is a double weighted iterative model by integrating the DO graph topology on a global scale. It was based on the latest annotations of the human genome with DO terms, and double weighted the annotated protein-coding genes. On one hand, to reinforce the saliency of direct gene-DO annotations, different initial weights were assigned to directly annotated genes and indirectly annotated genes, respectively. On the other hand, to detect locally most significant node between the parent and its children, less significant nodes were dynamically down-weighted.

EnrichDO exhibits higher accuracy that often yield more specific significant DO terms, which alleviate the over enriched problem. The input data are the protein-coding genes of the human genome, using the ENTREZID format of NCBI.
