decoupler - Ensemble of methods to infer enrichment scores

decoupler is a python package containing different enrichment statistical methods to extract biologically driven scores from omics data within a unified framework. This is its faster and memory efficient Python implementation, a deprecated version in R can be found here.

decoupler is part of the scverse® project (website, governance) and is fiscally sponsored by NumFOCUS.
