TFEA.ChIP: a tool kit for transcription factor binding site enrichment analysis capitalizing on ChIP-seq datasets
Bibliographic record
Abstract
SUMMARY: The computational identification of the transcription factors (TFs) [more generally, transcription regulators, (TR)] responsible for the co-regulation of a specific set of genes is a common problem found in genomic analysis. Herein, we describe TFEA.ChIP, a tool that makes use of ChIP-seq datasets to estimate and visualize TR enrichment in gene lists representing transcriptional profiles. We validated TFEA.ChIP using a wide variety of gene sets representing signatures of genetic and chemical perturbations as input and found that the relevant TR was correctly identified in 126 of a total of 174 analyzed. Comparison with other TR enrichment tools demonstrates that TFEA.ChIP is an highly customizable package with an outstanding performance. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: TFEA.ChIP is implemented as an R package available at Bioconductor https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc/html/TFEA.ChIP.html and github https://github.com/LauraPS1/TFEA.ChIP_downloads. A web-based GUI to the package is also available at https://www.iib.uam.es/TFEA.ChIP/. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
