RCAS is an R/Bioconductor package designed as a generic reporting tool for the functional analysis of transcriptome-wide regions of interest detected by high-throughput experiments. Such transcriptomic regions could be, for instance, signal peaks detected by CLIP-Seq analysis for protein-RNA interaction sites, RNA modification sites (alias the epitranscriptome), CAGE-tag locations, or any other collection of query regions at the level of the transcriptome. RCAS produces in-depth annotation summaries and coverage profiles based on the distribution of the query regions with respect to transcript features (exons, introns, 5'/3' UTR regions, exon-intron boundaries, promoter regions). Moreover, RCAS can carry out functional enrichment analyses and discriminative motif discovery.

Second version of RareVariantVis package aims to provide comprehensive information about rare variants for your genome data. It annotates, filters and presents genomic variants (especially rare ones) in a global, per chromosome way. For discovered rare variants CRISPR guide RNAs are designed, so the user can plan further functional studies. Large structural variants, including copy number variants are also supported. Package accepts variants directly from variant caller - for example GATK or Speedseq. Output of package are lists of variants together with adequate visualization. Visualization of variants is performed in two ways - standard that outputs png figures and interactive that uses JavaScript d3 package. Interactive visualization allows to analyze trio/family data, for example in search for causative variants in rare Mendelian diseases, in point-and-click interface. The package includes homozygous region caller and allows to analyse whole human genomes in less than 30 minutes on a desktop computer. RareVariantVis disclosed novel causes of several rare monogenic disorders, including one with non-coding causative variant - keratolythic winter erythema.

The prebs package aims at making RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data more comparable to microarray data. The comparability is achieved by summarizing sequencing-based expressions of probe regions using a modified version of RMA algorithm. The pipeline takes mapped reads in BAM format as an input and produces either gene expressions or original microarray probe set expressions as an output.

Interactions between proteins occur in many, if not most, biological processes. Most proteins perform their functions in networks associated with other proteins and other biomolecules. This fact has motivated the development of a variety of experimental methods for the identification of protein interactions. This variety has in turn ushered in the development of numerous different computational approaches for modeling and predicting protein interactions. Sometimes an experiment is aimed at identifying proteins closely related to some interesting proteins. A network based statistical learning method is used to infer the putative functions of proteins from the known functions of its neighboring proteins on a PPI network. This package identifies such proteins often involved in the same or similar biological functions.

This package provides a model for the clone size distribution of the TCR repertoire. Further, it permits comparative analysis of TCR repertoire libraries based on theoretical model fits.

'OSTA.data' is a companion package for the "Orchestrating Spatial Transcriptomics Analysis" (OSTA) with Bioconductor online book. Throughout OSTA, we rely on a set of publicly available datasets that cover different sequencing- and imaging-based platforms, such as Visium, Visium HD, Xenium (10x Genomics) and CosMx (NanoString). In addition, we rely on scRNA-seq (Chromium) data for tasks, e.g., spot deconvolution and label transfer (i.e., supervised clustering). These data been deposited in an Open Storage Framework (OSF) repository, and can be queried and downloaded using functions from the 'osfr' package. For convenience, we have implemented 'OSTA.data' to query and retrieve data from our OSF node, and cache retrieved Zip archives using 'BiocFileCache'.

Oscope is a statistical pipeline developed to identifying and recovering the base cycle profiles of oscillating genes in an unsynchronized single cell RNA-seq experiment. The Oscope pipeline includes three modules: a sine model module to search for candidate oscillator pairs; a K-medoids clustering module to cluster candidate oscillators into groups; and an extended nearest insertion module to recover the base cycle order for each oscillator group.

A sizable genomics study such as microarray often involves the use of multiple batches (groups) of experiment due to practical complication. To minimize batch effects, a careful experiment design should ensure the even distribution of biological groups and confounding factors across batches. OSAT (Optimal Sample Assignment Tool) is developed to facilitate the allocation of collected samples to different batches. With minimum steps, it produces setup that optimizes the even distribution of samples in groups of biological interest into different batches, reducing the confounding or correlation between batches and the biological variables of interest. It can also optimize the even distribution of confounding factors across batches. Our tool can handle challenging instances where incomplete and unbalanced sample collections are involved as well as ideal balanced RCBD. OSAT provides a number of predefined layout for some of the most commonly used genomics platform. Related paper can be find at http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/13/689 .

omicsGMF is a Bioconductor package that uses the sgdGMF-framework of the \code{sgdGMF} package for highly performant and fast matrix factorization that can be used for dimensionality reduction, visualization and imputation of omics data. It considers data from the general exponential family as input, and therefore suits the use of both RNA-seq (Poisson or Negative Binomial data) and proteomics data (Gaussian data). It does not require prior transformation of counts to the log-scale, because it rather optimizes the deviances from the data family specified. Also, it allows to correct for known sample-level and feature-level covariates, therefore enabling visualization and dimensionality reduction upon batch correction. Last but not least, it deals with missing values, and allows to impute these after matrix factorization, useful for proteomics data. This Bioconductor package allows input of SummarizedExperiment, SingleCellExperiment, and QFeature classes.

The synthetic hybridization data of “Tiling Arrays” can also be generated. The user has choice between three different distributions for the read positioning: Normal, Student and Uniform. In addition, a visualization tool is provided to explore the synthetic nucleosome maps.

Current gene set enrichment methods rely upon permutations for inference. These approaches are computationally expensive and have minimum achievable p-values based on the number of permutations, not on the actual observed statistics. We have derived three parametric approximations to the permutation distributions of two gene set enrichment test statistics. We are able to reduce the computational burden and granularity issues of permutation testing with our method, which is implemented in this package. npGSEA calculates gene set enrichment statistics and p-values without the computational cost of permutations. It is applicable in settings where one or many gene sets are of interest. There are also built-in plotting functions to help users visualize results.
