"""PathMe.
PathMe facilitates a systematic comparison across three of the major pathway databases.
The primary goal of this package is to convert KEGG, Reactome, and WikiPathways to Biological Expression Language (BEL).
PathMe is the followw-up of the ComPath web application which is aimed at exploring, analyzing, and curating pathway
knowledge in a more simplistic, gene-centric view. This approach involves converting all pathways to BEL as a pivotal
integration schema and evaluating consensus and gaps in pathway knowledge. Additionally, PathMe is complemented with
a web application (`PathMe Viewer <https://github.com/ComPath/PathMe-Viewer>`_) that enables the exploration of all the
pathways from these three resources.
The goal of this package is to conduct a systematic comparison across three of the major pathway databases. PathMe does
that by converting KEGG, Reactome, and WikiPathways to Biological Expression Language (BEL).
Once the three databases are harmonized into BEL, we can evaluate the consensus and gaps in pathway knowledge.
For that, PathMe is complemented with a web application (`PathMe Viewer <https://github.com/ComPath/PathMe-Viewer>`_)
that enables the exploration of all the pathways from these three resources. PathMe is the follow-up of the ComPath web
