overlapDistance: Helper function for computeGeneSetSimilarity

In EvgeniyaGorobets/PGxVision: Visualize Biomarkers and Pharmacogenomic Data

Description

Compute the overlap distance between two gene sets, defined as (number of overlapping genes) / (number of unique genes in the union of gene sets).

Usage

overlapDistance(geneSets, gs1, gs2)

Arguments

geneSets	A data.table with columns "gs_name" (gene set name) and "ensembl_gene" (ENSEMBL gene ID) which lists the genes in each gene set
gs1	The name of gene set 1
gs2	The name of gene set 2

Value

The overlap distance, as defined in the description, between the two gene sets
