In this paper, we present an open source Python package—GSimPy, which can measure similarity between items and groups that satisfy GIE model. GIE model is a Group–Item–Element model commonly used in many fields such as biology. GSimPy can help manage scientists’ customized data and provide a random model as a reference to evaluate similarity results. Visualization tools are also supported to make analysis results more interpretable.
