HiCcompare provides functions for joint normalization and difference detection in multiple Hi-C datasets. HiCcompare operates on processed Hi-C data in the form of chromosome-specific chromatin interaction matrices. It accepts three-column tab-separated text files storing chromatin interaction matrices in a sparse matrix format which are available from several sources. HiCcompare is designed to give the user the ability to perform a comparative analysis on the 3-Dimensional structure of the genomes of cells in different biological states.`HiCcompare` differs from other packages that attempt to compare Hi-C data in that it works on processed data in chromatin interaction matrix format instead of pre-processed sequencing data. In addition, `HiCcompare` provides a non-parametric method for the joint normalization and removal of biases between two Hi-C datasets for the purpose of comparative analysis. `HiCcompare` also provides a simple yet robust method for detecting differences between Hi-C datasets.

This package provides a set of functions useful in the analysis of 3D genomic interactions. It includes the import of standard HiC data formats into R and HiC normalisation procedures. The main objective of this package is to improve the visualization and quantification of the analysis of HiC contacts through aggregation. The package allows to import 1D genomics data, such as peaks from ATACSeq, ChIPSeq, to create potential couples between features of interest under user-defined parameters such as distance between pairs of features of interest. It allows then the extraction of contact values from the HiC data for these couples and to perform Aggregated Peak Analysis (APA) for visualization, but also to compare normalized contact values between conditions. Overall the package allows to integrate 1D genomics data with 3D genomics data, providing an easy access to HiC contact values.

Enriched heatmap is a special type of heatmap which visualizes the enrichment of genomic signals on specific target regions. Here we implement enriched heatmap by ComplexHeatmap package. Since this type of heatmap is just a normal heatmap but with some special settings, with the functionality of ComplexHeatmap, it would be much easier to customize the heatmap as well as concatenating to a list of heatmaps to show correspondance between different data sources.

The EMDomics algorithm is used to perform a supervised multi-class analysis to measure the magnitude and statistical significance of observed continuous genomics data between groups. Usually the data will be gene expression values from array-based or sequence-based experiments, but data from other types of experiments can also be analyzed (e.g. copy number variation). Traditional methods like Significance Analysis of Microarrays (SAM) and Linear Models for Microarray Data (LIMMA) use significance tests based on summary statistics (mean and standard deviation) of the distributions. This approach lacks power to identify expression differences between groups that show high levels of intra-group heterogeneity. The Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) algorithm instead computes the "work" needed to transform one distribution into another, thus providing a metric of the overall difference in shape between two distributions. Permutation of sample labels is used to generate q-values for the observed EMD scores. This package also incorporates the Komolgorov-Smirnov (K-S) test and the Cramer von Mises test (CVM), which are both common distribution comparison tests.

The easylift package provides a convenient tool for genomic liftover operations between different genome assemblies. It seamlessly works with Bioconductor's GRanges objects and chain files from the UCSC Genome Browser, allowing for straightforward handling of genomic ranges across various genome versions. One noteworthy feature of easylift is its integration with the BiocFileCache package. This integration automates the management and caching of chain files necessary for liftover operations. Users no longer need to manually specify chain file paths in their function calls, reducing the complexity of the liftover process.

Customizations range from size and title adjustments to automatic generation of annotations for heatmaps, overlay of trajectory analysis onto any dimensionality reduciton plot, hidden data overlay upon cursor hovering via ggplotly conversion, and many more. All with simple, discrete inputs. Color blindness friendliness is powered by legend adjustments (enlarged keys), and by allowing the use of shapes or letter-overlay in addition to the carefully selected dittoColors().

The purpose of this package is to identify traits in a dataset that can separate groups. This is done on two levels. First, clustering is performed, using an implementation of sparse K-means. Secondly, the generated clusters are used to predict outcomes of groups of individuals based on their distribution of observations in the different clusters. As certain clusters with separating information will be identified, and these clusters are defined by a sparse number of variables, this method can reduce the complexity of data, to only emphasize the data that actually matters.

Differential abundance testing in microbiome data challenges both parametric and non-parametric statistical methods, due to its sparsity, high variability and compositional nature. Microbiome-specific statistical methods often assume classical distribution models or take into account compositional specifics. These produce results that range within the specificity vs sensitivity space in such a way that type I and type II error that are difficult to ascertain in real microbiome data when a single method is used. Recently, a consensus approach based on multiple differential abundance (DA) methods was recently suggested in order to increase robustness. With dar, you can use dplyr-like pipeable sequences of DA methods and then apply different consensus strategies. In this way we can obtain more reliable results in a fast, consistent and reproducible way.

Cell Set Overlap Analysis (CSOA) is a tool for calculating per-cell gene signature scores in an scRNA-seq dataset. CSOA constructs a set for each gene in the signature, consisting of the cells that highly express the gene. Next, all overlaps of pairs of cell sets are computed, ranked, filtered and scored. The CSOA per-cell score is calculated by summing up all products of the overlap scores and the min-max-normalized expression of the two involved genes. CSOA can run on a Seurat object, a SingleCellExperiment object, a matrix and a dgCMatrix.

CBN2Path package provides a unifying interface to facilitate CBN-based quantification, analysis and visualization of cancer progression pathways.

Implements the BumpyMatrix class and several subclasses for holding non-scalar objects in each entry of the matrix. This is akin to a ragged array but the raggedness is in the third dimension, much like a bumpy surface - hence the name. Of particular interest is the BumpyDataFrameMatrix, where each entry is a Bioconductor data frame. This allows us to naturally represent multivariate data in a format that is compatible with two-dimensional containers like the SummarizedExperiment and MultiAssayExperiment objects.

This package implements an attribute-weighted aggregation algorithm which leverages peptide-spectrum match (PSM) attributes to provide a more accurate estimate of protein abundance compared to conventional aggregation methods. This algorithm employs pre-trained random forest models to predict the quantitative inaccuracy of PSMs based on their attributes. PSMs are then aggregated to the protein level using a weighted average, taking the predicted inaccuracy into account. Additionally, the package allows users to construct their own training sets that are more relevant to their specific experimental conditions if desired.
