jvenn

jvenn generates Venn diagrams to compare multiple lists, enabling analysis of overlaps and unique elements in gene lists from differential analyses and gene expression studies.

Key Features:

• Handling Multiple Lists: Supports computation of Venn diagrams for up to six input lists.
• Layout Options: Provides classical and Edwards-Venn layouts for alternative diagram geometries.
• Overlap and Unique Element Analysis: Identifies and presents set intersections and set-specific elements for comparative analysis of lists such as gene sets.

Scientific Applications:

• Gene list comparison: Comparison of gene lists derived from differential analyses to determine shared and unique genes between results.
• Comparative expression analysis: Assessment of overlaps between gene expression results across experimental conditions or different analysis methods.

Methodology:

Implemented as a JavaScript library that computes Venn diagrams for up to six input lists and supports classical and Edwards-Venn layouts.
