CGHnormaliter

Low- and high-level wrappers for Gemma's RESTful API. They enable access to curated expression and differential expression data from over 10,000 published studies. Gemma is a web site, database and a set of tools for the meta-analysis, re-use and sharing of genomics data, currently primarily targeted at the analysis of gene expression profiles.

affyILM is a preprocessing tool which estimates gene expression levels for Affymetrix Gene Chips. Input from physical chemistry is employed to first background subtract intensities before calculating concentrations on behalf of the Langmuir model.

The package provides functionality that can be useful for the analysis of high-density tiling microarray data (such as from Affymetrix genechips) for measuring transcript abundance and architecture. The main functionalities of the package are: 1. the class 'segmentation' for representing partitionings of a linear series of data; 2. the function 'segment' for fitting piecewise constant models using a dynamic programming algorithm that is both fast and exact; 3. the function 'confint' for calculating confidence intervals using the strucchange package; 4. the function 'plotAlongChrom' for generating pretty plots; 5. the function 'normalizeByReference' for probe-sequence dependent response adjustment from a (set of) reference hybridizations.

This package unifies access to Statistal Modeling of Omics Data. Across linear modeling engines (lm, lme, lmer, limma, and wilcoxon). Across coding systems (treatment, difference, deviation, etc). Across model formulae (with/without intercept, random effect, interaction or nesting). Across omics platforms (microarray, rnaseq, msproteomics, affinity proteomics, metabolomics). Across projection methods (pca, pls, sma, lda, spls, opls). Across clustering methods (hclust, pam, cmeans). Across survival methods (coxph, survdiff, coin). It provides a fast enrichment analysis implementation.

Quantify and interpret multiple sources of biological and technical variation in gene expression experiments. Uses a linear mixed model to quantify variation in gene expression attributable to individual, tissue, time point, or technical variables. Includes dream differential expression analysis for repeated measures.

A data-driven test for the assumptions of quantile normalization using raw data such as objects that inherit eSets (e.g. ExpressionSet, MethylSet). Group level information about each sample (such as Tumor / Normal status) must also be provided because the test assesses if there are global differences in the distributions between the user-defined groups.
