UMI-4C is a technique that allows characterization of 3D chromatin interactions with a bait of interest, taking advantage of a sonication step to produce unique molecular identifiers (UMIs) that help remove duplication bias, thus allowing a better differential comparsion of chromatin interactions between conditions. This package allows processing of UMI-4C data, starting from FastQ files provided by the sequencing facility. It provides two statistical methods for detecting differential contacts and includes a visualization function to plot integrated information from a UMI-4C assay.

Target capture experiments combine hybridization-based (in solution or on microarrays) capture and enrichment of genomic regions of interest (e.g. the exome) with high throughput sequencing of the captured DNA fragments. This package provides functionalities for assessing and visualizing the quality of the target enrichment process, like specificity and sensitivity of the capture, per-target read coverage and so on.

Tools for comprehensive gene set enrichment and extraction of multi-resource high confidence subnetworks. RITAN facilitates bioinformatic tasks for enabling network biology research.

Rfastp is an R wrapper of fastp developed in c++. fastp performs quality control for fastq files. including low quality bases trimming, polyX trimming, adapter auto-detection and trimming, paired-end reads merging, UMI sequence/id handling. Rfastp can concatenate multiple files into one file (like shell command cat) and accept multiple files as input.

omicsPrint provides functionality for cross omic genetic fingerprinting, for example, to verify sample relationships between multiple omics data types, i.e. genomic, transcriptomic and epigenetic (DNA methylation).

This package provides methods and object classes for parsing FastQC reports and output summaries from other NGS tools into R. As well as parsing files, multiple plotting methods have been implemented for visualising the parsed data. Plots can be generated as static ggplot objects or interactive plotly objects.

marr (Maximum Rank Reproducibility) is a nonparametric approach that detects reproducible signals using a maximal rank statistic for high-dimensional biological data. In this R package, we implement functions that measures the reproducibility of features per sample pair and sample pairs per feature in high-dimensional biological replicate experiments. The user-friendly plot functions in this package also plot histograms of the reproducibility of features per sample pair and sample pairs per feature. Furthermore, our approach also allows the users to select optimal filtering threshold values for the identification of reproducible features and sample pairs based on output visualization checks (histograms). This package also provides the subset of data filtered by reproducible features and/or sample pairs.

IONiseR provides tools for the quality assessment of Oxford Nanopore MinION data. It extracts summary statistics from a set of fast5 files and can be used either before or after base calling. In addition to standard summaries of the read-types produced, it provides a number of plots for visualising metrics relative to experiment run time or spatially over the surface of a flowcell.

This package contains methods for calculating Interaction Based Homogeneity to evaluate fitness of gene lists to an interaction network which is useful for evaluation of clustering results and gene list analysis. BioGRID interactions are used in the calculation. The user can also provide their own interactions.

The hdxmsqc package enables us to analyse and visualise the quality of HDX-MS experiments. Either as a final quality check before downstream analysis and publication or as part of a interative procedure to determine the quality of the data. The package builds on the QFeatures and Spectra packages to integrate with other mass-spectrometry data.

An interactive web application for quality control, filtering and trimming of FASTQ files. This user-friendly tool combines a pipeline for data processing based on Biostrings and ShortRead infrastructure, with a cutting-edge visual environment. Single-Read and Paired-End files can be locally processed. Diagnostic interactive plots (CG content, per-base sequence quality, etc.) are provided for both the input and output files.

An implementation of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard E691 for interlaboratory testing procedures, designed for cross-platform genomic measurements. Given three (3) or more genomic platforms or laboratory protocols, this package provides interlaboratory testing procedures giving per-locus comparisons for sensitivity and precision between platforms.

RNA-seq data generated by some library preparation methods, such as rRNA-depletion-based method and the SMART-seq method, might be contaminated by genomic DNA (gDNA), if DNase I disgestion is not performed properly during RNA preparation. CleanUpRNAseq is developed to check if RNA-seq data is suffered from gDNA contamination. If so, it can perform correction for gDNA contamination and reduce false discovery rate of differentially expressed genes.

Generate QC reports summarizing the output from an alevin, alevin-fry, or simpleaf run. Reports can be generated as html or pdf files, or as shiny applications.
