Overview

One of the main functionalities provided by the multiGSEA package is the \code{multiGSEA} function itself which provides a container that holds the results of the variety of gene set enrichement analyses performed by the function as well as the differential expression results generated for the sampe comparison.

This package provides a number of shiny modules that are stitched together into an app invoked by the \code{explore} function which allows the user to interactively explore the gene set enrichment analysis results from each of the individual methods as well as the individual gene level differential expression statistics.

You will first have to run multiGSEA on your dataset, or load a serialized version of it from your disk:

library(multiGSEA)
library(multiGSEA.shiny)
mg <- exampleMultiGSEAResult()

Then invoke the explore method to look at the results

explore(mg)

Every bit of this application is interactive. Go ahead and play with it while we expand on this documentation further ...

One piece of functionality that is non-obvious but quite useful is that when you select genes (dots) on the various interactive plots that are generated, a table is generated at the bottom of the application that lists the other gene sets that those genes you selected are members of,
