cytoKernel
cytoKernel implements a kernel-based score test to identify differentially expressed features in high-dimensional biological experiments. This approach can be applied across many different high-dimensional biological data including gene expression data and dimensionally reduced cytometry-based marker expression data. In this R package, we implement functions that compute the feature-wise p values and their corresponding adjusted p values. Additionally, it also computes the feature-wise shrunk effect sizes and their corresponding shrunken effect size. Further, it calculates the percent of differentially expressed features and plots user-friendly heatmap of the top differentially expressed features on the rows and samples on the columns.

Statistical methods for differential discovery analyses in high-dimensional cytometry data (including flow cytometry, mass cytometry or CyTOF, and oligonucleotide-tagged cytometry), based on a combination of high-resolution clustering and empirical Bayes moderated tests adapted from transcriptomics.
CATALYST provides tools for preprocessing of and differential discovery in cytometry data such as FACS, CyTOF, and IMC. Preprocessing includes i) normalization using bead standards, ii) single-cell deconvolution, and iii) bead-based compensation. For differential discovery, the package provides a number of convenient functions for data processing (e.g., clustering, dimension reduction), as well as a suite of visualizations for exploratory data analysis and exploration of results from differential abundance (DA) and state (DS) analysis in order to identify differences in composition and expression profiles at the subpopulation-level, respectively.
Linnorm is an algorithm for normalizing and transforming RNA-seq, single cell RNA-seq, ChIP-seq count data or any large scale count data. It has been independently reviewed by Tian et al. on Nature Methods (https://doi.org/10.1038/s41592-019-0425-8). Linnorm can work with raw count, CPM, RPKM, FPKM and TPM.
Differential expression analysis of sequence count data. Implements a range of statistical methodology based on the negative binomial distributions, including empirical Bayes estimation, exact tests, generalized linear models, quasi-likelihood, and gene set enrichment. Can perform differential analyses of any type of omics data that produces read counts, including RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq, Bisulfite-seq, SAGE, CAGE, metabolomics, or proteomics spectral counts. RNA-seq analyses can be conducted at the gene or isoform level, and tests can be conducted for differential exon or transcript usage.
This package implements a variety of functions useful for gene set analysis using rotations to approximate the null distribution. It contributes with the implementation of seven test statistic scores that can be used with different goals and interpretations. Several functions are available to complement the statistical results with graphical representations.
