netmap.downstream.markers.calculate_jaccard_scores(query_set, reference_dict)[source]¶

Calculate Jaccard similarity between a query set and a dict of reference sets.

Parameters:

query_set (iterable) – Gene names representing the query gene set.
reference_dict (dict) – Mapping of reference set names to sets (or iterables) of gene names to compare against the query.

Returns:

Mapping of each key from reference_dict to its Jaccard similarity score with query_set. Scores are floats in [0, 1]. A pair with an empty union receives a score of 0.

Return type:

dict
