Analysis and Visualization of Microbial Communities

One or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying software that is operable when executed to:

• access a plurality of microbiome samples;
• generate a user interface, wherein the user interface comprises one or more input fields, and wherein each of the input fields corresponds to one or more of a phenotype or a feature associated with the plurality of microbiome samples;
• receive, via the user interface, one or more user inputs to one or more of the input fields;
• generate, at the user interface, a visualization comprising one or more analysis results associated with the plurality of microbiome samples, wherein the one or more analysis results are generated based on the one or more user inputs;
• and
• output an exportable report and software code comprising the generated visualization.

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and a non-transitory memory coupled to the processors comprising instructions executable by the processors, the processors operable when executing the instructions to:
• access a plurality of microbiome samples;
• generate a user interface, wherein the user interface comprises one or more input fields, and wherein each of the input fields corresponds to one or more of a phenotype or a feature associated with the plurality of microbiome samples;
• receive, via the user interface, one or more user inputs to one or more of the input fields;
• generate, at the user interface, a visualization comprising one or more analysis results associated with the plurality of microbiome samples, wherein the one or more analysis results are generated based on the one or more user inputs;
• and
• output an exportable report and software code comprising the generated visualization.

A method comprising, by one or more computing systems:

• preprocessing a plurality of microbiome samples for microbiome analyses to be performed by a software tool;
• inputting the processed microbiome samples to the software tool;
• using the software tool to perform quality control on the processed microbiome samples;
• using the software tool to perform one or more microbiome analyses based on one or more user inputs;
• and
• generating an exportable report comprising analysis results associated with the one or more microbiome analyses.

A method comprising, by one or more computing systems:

• accessing a plurality of microbiome samples;
• receiving one or more user-specified analysis parameters associated with a request for a survival analysis, wherein the one or more user-specified analysis parameters comprise one or more of a selected feature, a selected diversity index, a split of groups, or a phenotype;
• generating a visualization comprising a result of the survival analysis associated with the plurality of microbiome samples, wherein the result of the survival analysis is generated based on the one or more user-specified analysis parameters;
• and
• generating an exportable report and software code comprising the generated visualization.
