Functions for Reading Ontologies into R

Description

Functions for reading ontologies into R and manipulating sets of ontological terms.

Details

Package: ontologyIndex
Type: Package
Version: 2.0
Date: 2016-07-20
License: GPL (>= 2)

The key functions include get_ontology for creating the index, get_ancestors for computing the set of all terms which are ancestors of at least one from set of terms and get_descendants for getting all terms which descend from a term. The package comes with R objects hpo, mpo and go which index the Human Phenotype Ontology, Mammalian Phenotype Ontology and Gene Ontology respectively.
