ontologySimilarity: Calculating Ontological Similarities

Calculate similarity between ontological terms and sets of ontological terms based on term information content and assess statistical significance of similarity in the context of a collection of terms sets - Greene et al. 2017 <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btw763>.
