HyperModules

Interaction Network Algorithm to Analyse Gene Mutations and Clinical Data
HyperModules is a biological interaction network analysis algorithm to analyse gene mutations and clinical information. Specifically, HyperModules uses local network search heuristics to detect closely connected network regions (i.e. modules of genes and proteins) in which gene mutations correlate with clinical features. Clinical features in HyperModules analysis comprise time values like patient survival, or discrete values like tumor stage or vital status. To establish statistical significance of clinical correlations in detected modules, HyperModules applies standard tests (Log-rank test, Fisher's exact test). Searches are repeated across many shuffled networks to correct for systematic biases originating from underlying network structure. HyperModules was designed by Jüri Reimand and Gary Bader. The Java implementation for Cytoscape and command line software was created by Alvin Leung.
