Hetionet is a hetnet — network with multiple node and edge (relationship) types — which encodes biology. The hetnet was designed for Project Rephetio, which aims to systematically identify why drugs work and predict new therapies for drugs. The JSON and Neo4j formats contain node and edge properties, which are absent in the TSV and matrix formats, including licensing information. Therefore the recommended formats are JSON and Neo4j. Our hetio package in Python reads the JSON format, but it is otherwise a simple yet new format. The Neo4j graph database has an established and thriving ecosystem. However, if you would like to access Hetionet without Neo4j, then we suggest the JSON format. The matrix format refers to HetMat archives, which store edge adjacency matrices on disk. Additional usage information is available at the corresponding download locations.
