traseR performs GWAS trait-associated SNP enrichment analyses in genomic intervals using different hypothesis testing approaches, also provides various functionalities to explore and visualize the results.

This package is to find SNV/Indel differences between two bam files with near relationship in a way of pairwise comparison thourgh each base position across the genome region of interest. The difference is inferred by fisher test and euclidean distance, the input of which is the base count (A,T,G,C) in a given position and read counts for indels that span no less than 2bp on both sides of indel region.

systemPipeR is a workflow management environment for reproducible data analysis that integrates R with command-line software. It enables researchers to design, execute, and report complex workflows on local machines and HPC systems. The framework combines R-based analysis with external tools through a Common Workflow Language (CWL) interface, manages workflow dependencies and restart capabilities, and automatically generates reproducible scientific analysis reports. The companion package systemPipeRdata provides ready-to-use workflow templates that simplify workflow setup and customization. Alternatively, workflow templates can be loaded from dedicated GitHub repositories.

Basic4Cseq is an R/Bioconductor package for basic filtering, analysis and subsequent visualization of 4C-seq data. Virtual fragment libraries can be created for any BSGenome package, and filter functions for both reads and fragments and basic quality controls are included. Fragment data in the vicinity of the experiment's viewpoint can be visualized as a coverage plot based on a running median approach and a multi-scale contact profile.

Whole genome single-cell DNA sequencing (scDNA-seq) enables characterization of copy number profiles at the cellular level. This circumvents the averaging effects associated with bulk-tissue sequencing and has increased resolution yet decreased ambiguity in deconvolving cancer subclones and elucidating cancer evolutionary history. ScDNA-seq data is, however, sparse, noisy, and highly variable even within a homogeneous cell population, due to the biases and artifacts that are introduced during the library preparation and sequencing procedure. Here, we propose SCOPE, a normalization and copy number estimation method for scDNA-seq data. The distinguishing features of SCOPE include: (i) utilization of cell-specific Gini coefficients for quality controls and for identification of normal/diploid cells, which are further used as negative control samples in a Poisson latent factor model for normalization; (ii) modeling of GC content bias using an expectation-maximization algorithm embedded in the Poisson generalized linear models, which accounts for the different copy number states along the genome; (iii) a cross-sample iterative segmentation procedure to identify breakpoints that are shared across cells from the same genetic background.

recoup calculates and plots signal profiles created from short sequence reads derived from Next Generation Sequencing technologies. The profiles provided are either sumarized curve profiles or heatmap profiles. Currently, recoup supports genomic profile plots for reads derived from ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq experiments. The package uses ggplot2 and ComplexHeatmap graphics facilities for curve and heatmap coverage profiles respectively.
