decoupler.run_gsea(mat, net, source='source', target='target', times=1000, batch_size=10000, min_n=5, seed=42, verbose=False, use_raw=True)

Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA).

GSEA (Aravind et al., 2005) starts by transforming the input molecular readouts in mat to ranks for each sample. Then, an enrichment score gsea_estimate is calculated by walking down the list of features, increasing a running-sum statistic when a feature in the target feature set is encountered and decreasing it when it is not. The final score is the maximum deviation from zero encountered in the random walk. Finally, a normalized score gsea_norm, can be obtained by computing the z-score of the estimate compared to a null distribution obtained from N random permutations.
