BioProfiling.jl

This package allows to perform robust multidimensional profiling in 'Julia' and comes with helper functions, especially designed for high-content imaging-based morphological profiling.

You can simply add this package from the Julia repository like any other package:

import Pkg
Pkg.add("BioProfiling")
using BioProfiling

Alternatively, you may use the following to load this package after cloning this repository:

import Pkg
Pkg.activate(<pathToThisFolder>)
using BioProfiling
Pkg.activate()

Use the following to install the package:

import Pkg
Pkg.add(Pkg.PackageSpec(url = "https://github.com/menchelab/BioProfiling.jl.git"))

You can then import the package normally:

using BioProfiling

• Have a look at the documentation

This package was created by Loan Vulliard @ Menche lab.
BioProfiling.jl relies on several amazing open-source Julia packages, listed in the requirement file (see Project.toml).
If you use this tool in your research work, please cite the article in which we detail how this tool is implemented and can be used:
