microbiomeDASim

Microbiome

A toolkit for simulating differential microbiome data designed for longitudinal analyses. Several functional forms may be specified for the mean trend. Observations are drawn from a multivariate normal model. The objective of this package is to be able to simulate data in order to accurately compare different longitudinal methods for differential abundance.

iSEEtree is an extension of iSEE for the TreeSummarizedExperiment data container. It provides interactive panel designs to explore hierarchical datasets, such as the microbiome and cell lines.

The MicrobiomeExplorer R package is designed to facilitate the analysis and visualization of marker-gene survey feature data. It allows a user to perform and visualize typical microbiome analytical workflows either through the command line or an interactive Shiny application included with the package. In addition to applying common analytical workflows the application enables automated analysis report generation.

The miaViz package implements functions to visualize TreeSummarizedExperiment objects especially in the context of microbiome analysis. Part of the mia family of R/Bioconductor packages.

miaDash provides a Graphical User Interface for the exploration of microbiome data. This way, no knowledge of programming is required to perform analyses. Datasets can be imported, manipulated, analysed and visualised with a user-friendly interface.

Provides a reproducible and modular workflow for absolute microbial quantification using spike-in controls. Supports both single spike-in taxa and synthetic microbial communities with user-defined spike-in volumes and genome copy numbers. Compatible with 'phyloseq' and 'TreeSummarizedExperiment' (TSE) data structures. The package implements methods for spike-in validation, preprocessing, scaling factor estimation, absolute abundance conversion, bias correction, and normalization. Facilitates downstream statistical analyses with 'DESeq2', 'edgeR', and other Bioconductor-compatible methods. Visualization tools are provided via 'ggplot2', 'ggtree', and related packages. Includes detailed vignettes, case studies, and function-level documentation to guide users through experimental design, quantification, and interpretation.

MicrobiotaProcess is an R package for analysis, visualization and biomarker discovery of microbial datasets. It introduces MPSE class, this make it more interoperable with the existing computing ecosystem. Moreover, it introduces a tidy microbiome data structure paradigm and analysis grammar. It provides a wide variety of microbiome data analysis procedures under the unified and common framework (tidy-like framework).
