## What is `anchor`?

Anchor is a python package to find unimodal, bimodal, and multimodal features in any data that is normalized between 0 and 1, for example alternative splicing or other percent-based units.

## Installation

To install this code, clone this github repository and use `pip` to install

git clone git@github.com:YeoLab/anchor
cd anchor
pip install . # The "." means "install *this*, the folder where I am now"


To install ``anchor``, we recommend using the `Anaconda Python
Distribution <http://anaconda.org/>`__ and creating an environment.



### Stable (recommended)


To install this code from the Python Package Index, you'll need to specify ``anchor-bio`` (``anchor`` was already taken - boo).

```
pip install anchor-bio
```

### Bleeding-edge (for the brave)

If you want the latest and greatest version, clone this github repository and use `pip` to install

```
git clone git@github.com:YeoLab/anchor
cd anchor
pip install . # The "." means "install *this*, the folder where I am now"
```


## Usage

`anchor` was structured like `scikit-learn`, where if you want the "final
answer" of your estimator, you use `fit_transform()`, but if you want to see the
intermediates, you use `fit()`.

If you want the modality assignments for your data, first make sure that you
have a `pandas.DataFrame`, here it is called `data`, in the format (samples,
features). This uses a log2 Bayes Factor cutoff of 5, and the default Beta
distribution parameterizations (shown [here]())

```python
import anchor

bm = anchor.BayesianModalities()
modalities = bm.fit_transform(data)
```

If you want to see all the intermediate Bayes factors, then you can do:

```python
import anchor

bm = anchor.BayesianModalities()
bayes_factors = bm.fit(data)
```
