PoDCall
Reads files exported from 'QX Manager or QuantaSoft' containing amplitude values from a run of ddPCR (96 well plate) and robustly sets thresholds to determine positive droplets for each channel of each individual well. Concentration and normalized concentration in addition to other metrics is then calculated for each well. Results are returned as a table, optionally written to file, as well as optional plots (scatterplot and histogram) for both channels per well written to file. The package includes a shiny application which provides an interactive and user-friendly interface to the full functionality of PoDCall.

This package contains R functions to predict biological variables to from placnetal DNA methylation data generated from infinium arrays. This includes inferring ethnicity/ancestry, gestational age, and cell composition from placental DNA methylation array (450k/850k) data.
RnBeads facilitates comprehensive analysis of various types of DNA methylation data at the genome scale.
"Methylation-Aware Genotype Association in R" (MAGAR) computes methQTL from DNA methylation and genotyping data from matched samples. MAGAR uses a linear modeling stragety to call CpGs/SNPs that are methQTLs. MAGAR accounts for the local correlation structure of CpGs.
mist (Methylation Inference for Single-cell along Trajectory) is a hierarchical Bayesian framework for modeling DNA methylation trajectories and performing differential methylation (DM) analysis in single-cell DNA methylation (scDNAm) data. It estimates developmental-stage-specific variations, identifies genomic features with drastic changes along pseudotime, and, for two phenotypic groups, detects features with distinct temporal methylation patterns. mist uses Gibbs sampling to estimate parameters for temporal changes and stage-specific variations.
qsea (quantitative sequencing enrichment analysis) was developed as the successor of the MEDIPS package for analyzing data derived from methylated DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP) experiments followed by sequencing (MeDIP-seq). However, qsea provides several functionalities for the analysis of other kinds of quantitative sequencing data (e.g. ChIP-seq, MBD-seq, CMS-seq and others) including calculation of differential enrichment between groups of samples.
EpiDISH is a R package to infer the proportions of a priori known cell-types present in a sample representing a mixture of such cell-types. Right now, the package can be used on DNAm data of blood-tissue of any age, from birth to old-age, generic epithelial tissue and breast tissue. Besides, the package provides a function that allows the identification of differentially methylated cell-types and their directionality of change in Epigenome-Wide Association Studies.
