CNVrd2 uses next-generation sequencing data to measure human gene copy number for multiple samples, indentify SNPs tagging copy number variants and detect copy number polymorphic genomic regions.

Logic based ordinary differential equation (ODE) add-on to CellNOptR.

This package is an extension to CellNOptR. It contains additional functionality needed to simulate and train a prior knowledge network to experimental data using constrained fuzzy logic (cFL, rather than Boolean logic as is the case in CellNOptR). Additionally, this package will contain functions to use for the compilation of multiple optimization results (either Boolean or cFL).

This add-on to the package CellNOptR handles time-course data, as opposed to steady state data in CellNOptR. It scales the simulation step to allow comparison and model fitting for time-course data. Future versions will optimize delays and strengths for each edge.

Performs ratio, GC content correction and normalization of data obtained using low coverage (one read every 100-10,000 bp) high troughput sequencing. It performs a "discrete" normalization looking for the ploidy of the genome. It will also provide tumour content if at least two ploidy states can be found.

clustSIGNAL: clustering of Spatially Informed Gene expression with Neighbourhood Adapted Learning. A tool for adaptively smoothing and clustering gene expression data. clustSIGNAL uses entropy to measure heterogeneity of cell neighbourhoods and performs a weighted, adaptive smoothing, where homogeneous neighbourhoods are smoothed more and heterogeneous neighbourhoods are smoothed less. This not only overcomes data sparsity but also incorporates spatial context into the gene expression data. The resulting smoothed gene expression data is used for clustering and could be used for other downstream analyses.

Data driven strategy to find hidden groups of patients with complex diseases using clinical data. ClustAll facilitates the unsupervised identification of multiple robust stratifications. ClustAll, is able to overcome the most common limitations found when dealing with clinical data (missing values, correlated data, mixed data types).

This package implements a Naive Bayes classifier for accurately differentiating true polyadenylation sites (pA sites) from oligo(dT)-mediated 3' end sequencing such as PAS-Seq, PolyA-Seq and RNA-Seq by filtering out false polyadenylation sites, mainly due to oligo(dT)-mediated internal priming during reverse transcription. The classifer is highly accurate and outperforms other heuristic methods.

A package used for efficient unraveling of the inherent dynamic properties of pathways. MicroRNA-mediated subpathway topologies are extracted and evaluated by exploiting the temporal transition and the fold change activity of the linked genes/microRNAs.

Import TIFF images of fluorescently labeled cells, and track cell movements over time. Parallelization is supported for image processing and for fast computation of cell trajectories. In-depth analysis of cell trajectories is enabled by 15 trajectory analysis functions.

Calculates significant annotations (categories) in each of two (or more) feature (i.e. gene) lists, determines the overlap between the annotations, and returns graphical and tabular data about the significant annotations and which combinations of feature lists the annotations were found to be significant. Interactive exploration is facilitated through the use of RCytoscape (heavily suggested).

The package is user friendly interface based on the cgdsr and other modeling packages to explore, compare, and analyse all available Cancer Data (Clinical data, Gene Mutation, Gene Methylation, Gene Expression, Protein Phosphorylation, Copy Number Alteration) hosted by the Computational Biology Center at Memorial-Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC).

With the development of high-throughput techniques, more and more gene expression analysis tend to replace hybridization-based microarrays with the revolutionary technology.The novel method encodes the category again by employing the rank of samples for each gene in each class. We then consider the correlation coefficient of gene and class with rank of sample and new rank of category. The highest correlation coefficient genes are considered as the feature genes which are most effective to classify the samples.

Package for calculating aggregated isotopic distribution and exact center-masses for chemical substances (in this version composed of C, H, N, O and S). This is an implementation of the BRAIN algorithm described in the paper by J. Claesen, P. Dittwald, T. Burzykowski and D. Valkenborg.

The BloodGen3Module package provides functions for R user performing module repertoire analyses and generating fingerprint representations. Functions can perform group comparison or individual sample analysis and visualization by fingerprint grid plot or fingerprint heatmap. Module repertoire analyses typically involve determining the percentage of the constitutive genes for each module that are significantly increased or decreased. As we describe in details;https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/525709v2 and https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33624743/, the results of module repertoire analyses can be represented in a fingerprint format, where red and blue spots indicate increases or decreases in module activity. These spots are subsequently represented either on a grid, with each position being assigned to a given module, or in a heatmap where the samples are arranged in columns and the modules in rows.

Adopting tipping-point theory to transcriptome profiles to unravel disease regulatory trajectory.

This is an R package for interfacing with the BIOM file format. This package includes basic tools for reading biom-format files, accessing and subsetting data tables from a biom object (which is more complex than a single table), as well as limited support for writing a biom-object back to a biom-format file. The design of this API is intended to match the python API and other tools included with the biom-format project, but with a decidedly "R flavor" that should be familiar to R users. This includes S4 classes and methods, as well as extensions of common core functions/methods.

Biclustering Analysis and Results Exploration.

Provides functionality for the compression and decompression of raw bead-level data from the Illumina BeadArray platform.

Functions and classes for de novo prediction of transcription factor binding consensus by heuristic search

From the perspective of metabolites as the continuation of the central dogma of biology, metabolomics provides the closest link to many phenotypes of interest. This makes metabolomics research promising in teasing apart the complexities of living systems. However, due to experimental reasons, the data includes non-biological variation which limits quality and reproducibility, especially if the data is obtained from several batches. The batchCorr package reduces unwanted variation by way of between-batch alignment, within-batch drift correction and between-batch normalization using batch-specific quality control samples and long-term reference QC samples. Please see the associated article for more thorough descriptions of algorithms.

This package allows to efficiently obtain count vectors from indexed bam files. It counts the number of reads in given genomic ranges and it computes reads profiles and coverage profiles. It also handles paired-end data.

For RNA sequencing count data, BADER fits a Bayesian hierarchical model. The algorithm returns the posterior probability of differential expression for each gene between two groups A and B. The joint posterior distribution of the variables in the model can be returned in the form of posterior samples, which can be used for further down-stream analyses such as gene set enrichment.

atSNP performs affinity tests of motif matches with the SNP or the reference genomes and SNP-led changes in motif matches.

apeglm provides Bayesian shrinkage estimators for effect sizes for a variety of GLM models, using approximation of the posterior for individual coefficients.

annmap provides annotation mappings for Affymetrix exon arrays and coordinate based queries to support deep sequencing data analysis. Database access is hidden behind the API which provides a set of functions such as genesInRange(), geneToExon(), exonDetails(), etc. Functions to plot gene architecture and BAM file data are also provided. Underlying data are from Ensembl. The annmap database can be downloaded from: https://figshare.manchester.ac.uk/account/articles/16685071

Airpart identifies sets of genes displaying differential cell-type-specific allelic imbalance across cell types or states, utilizing single-cell allelic counts. It makes use of a generalized fused lasso with binomial observations of allelic counts to partition cell types by their allelic imbalance. Alternatively, a nonparametric method for partitioning cell types is offered. The package includes a number of visualizations and quality control functions for examining single cell allelic imbalance datasets.

The package helps with the assessment and correction of RNA degradation effects in Affymetrix 3' expression arrays. The parameter d gives a robust and accurate measure of RNA integrity. The correction removes the probe positional bias, and thus improves comparability of samples that are affected by RNA degradation.
