preciseTAD
preciseTAD provides functions to predict the location of boundaries of topologically associated domains (TADs) and chromatin loops at base-level resolution. As an input, it takes BED-formatted genomic coordinates of domain boundaries detected from low-resolution Hi-C data, and coordinates of high-resolution genomic annotations from ENCODE or other consortia. preciseTAD employs several feature engineering strategies and resampling techniques to address class imbalance, and trains an optimized random forest model for predicting low-resolution domain boundaries. Translated on a base-level, preciseTAD predicts the probability for each base to be a boundary. Density-based clustering and scalable partitioning techniques are used to detect precise boundary regions and summit points. Compared with low-resolution boundaries, preciseTAD boundaries are highly enriched for CTCF, RAD21, SMC3, and ZNF143 signal and more conserved across cell lines. The pre-trained model can accurately predict boundaries in another cell line using CTCF, RAD21, SMC3, and ZNF143 annotation data for this cell line.

TADCompare is an R package designed to identify and characterize differential Topologically Associated Domains (TADs) between multiple Hi-C contact matrices. It contains functions for finding differential TADs between two datasets, finding differential TADs over time and identifying consensus TADs across multiple matrices. It takes all of the main types of HiC input and returns simple, comprehensive, easy to analyze results.
timeOmics is a generic data-driven framework to integrate multi-Omics longitudinal data measured on the same biological samples and select key temporal features with strong associations within the same sample group. The main steps of timeOmics are: 1. Plaform and time-specific normalization and filtering steps; 2. Modelling each biological into one time expression profile; 3. Clustering features with the same expression profile over time; 4. Post-hoc validation step.
SpectralTAD is an R package designed to identify Topologically Associated Domains (TADs) from Hi-C contact matrices. It uses a modified version of spectral clustering that uses a sliding window to quickly detect TADs. The function works on a range of different formats of contact matrices and returns a bed file of TAD coordinates. The method does not require users to adjust any parameters to work and gives them control over the number of hierarchical levels to be returned.
A comprehensive toolkit that bridges popular Python-based immune repertoire analysis tools and Hugging Face protein language models into the R environment. Provides unified interfaces for TCR distance calculations (tcrdist3), sequence generation probability (OLGA), selection inference (soNNia), clustering (clusTCR), protein embeddings (ESM-2), metaclone discovery (metaclonotypist). Fully compatible with the scRepertoire and immApex ecosystem for single-cell immune repertoire analysis.
Provide functions for performing abundance and compositional based binning on metagenomic samples, directly from FASTA or FASTQ files. Functions are implemented in Java and called via rJava. Parallel implementation that operates directly on input FASTA/FASTQ files for fast execution. Inputs may be file paths or Biostrings/ShortRead sequence objects; results are returned as a MetabinResult S4 object wrapping cluster assignments, algorithm parameters, and input metadata.
planttfhunter is used to identify plant transcription factors (TFs) from protein sequence data and classify them into families and subfamilies using the classification scheme implemented in PlantTFDB. TFs are identified using pre-built hidden Markov model profiles for DNA-binding domains. Then, auxiliary and forbidden domains are used with DNA-binding domains to classify TFs into families and subfamilies (when applicable). Currently, TFs can be classified in 58 different TF families/subfamilies.
