# Epihet: Epigenetic heterogeneity from DNA methylation
[](https://travis-ci.org/databio/epihet)
`Epihet` calculates a the PIM score, which measures the epigenetic heterogeneity in a bisulfite sequencing sample. Under the assumption that a homogeneous sample will have mostly CpGs with either 100% or 0% DNA methylation, it follows that the proportion of sites that differ from these two extremes can be used as a measure of sample heterogeneity.
### Installing
Install the development version of epihet directly from GitHub:
```{r}
devtools::install_github("databio/epihet")
```
or locally after downloading/cloning the source code:
```{r}
install.packages("path/to/epihet/directory", repos=NULL, type="source")
```
### How to use
Please see the [vignettes](/vignettes) for details.
