PyComplexHeatmap: A Python package to visualize multimodal genomics data PYCOMPLEXHEATMAP DING et al.

Abstract

PyComplexHeatmap was designed to visualize matrix data and associated metadata through sophisticated, richly annotated heatmap layouts. We have integrated the R grammar-of-graphics semantics with the Python-native matplotlib/Pandas-based data science ecosystem, allowing users to utilize built-in matplotlib colormaps and project Pandas DataFrame directly as horizontal or vertical color bars. PyComplexHeatmap supports high-level data abstraction and can display up to five data dimensions within a single heatmap visualization.
