scTypeEval
scTypeEval provides tools to evaluate and validate cell type classifications in single-cell transcriptomics when ground truth labels are limited or unavailable. Results are organized in an S4 object that integrates processed data, dimensional reductions, dissimilarity assays, and consistency metrics computed across samples. The workflow includes preprocessing and feature selection, principal component analysis, computation of dissimilarity matrices, internal validation metrics (for example, silhouette-based summaries), and visualization utilities to inspect heatmaps and PCA plots. Functions support common single-cell containers and enable comparison of clustering and labeling strategies across datasets.

The scECODA R package provides a complete workflow for the analysis and visualization of compositional data, primarily focusing on cell type proportions derived from single-cell data. It implements specialized methods, such as the Centered Log-Ratio (CLR) transformation, to properly analyze proportional data while avoiding the biases introduced by the compositional constraint. The package encapsulates data management, transformation, and analysis into a single SummarizedExperiment object, offering downstream tools for dimensionality reduction via PCA, calculating critical metrics like the Adjusted Rand Index (ARI) and Modularity to quantify sample grouping quality, and generating high-quality visualizations like heatmaps and scatter plots.
Many modern biological datasets consist of small counts that are not well fit by standard linear-Gaussian methods such as principal component analysis. This package provides implementations of count-based feature selection and dimension reduction algorithms. These methods can be used to facilitate unsupervised analysis of any high-dimensional data such as single-cell RNA-seq.
This package unifies access to Statistal Modeling of Omics Data. Across linear modeling engines (lm, lme, lmer, limma, and wilcoxon). Across coding systems (treatment, difference, deviation, etc). Across model formulae (with/without intercept, random effect, interaction or nesting). Across omics platforms (microarray, rnaseq, msproteomics, affinity proteomics, metabolomics). Across projection methods (pca, pls, sma, lda, spls, opls). Across clustering methods (hclust, pam, cmeans). Across survival methods (coxph, survdiff, coin). It provides a fast enrichment analysis implementation.
Tools for analyzing SingleCellExperiment objects as projects. for input into the chevreulShiny app downstream. Includes functions for analysis of single cell RNA sequencing data. Supported by NIH grants R01CA137124 and R01EY026661 to David Cobrinik.
iSEEfier provides a set of functionality to quickly and intuitively create, inspect, and combine initial configuration objects. These can be conveniently passed in a straightforward manner to the function call to launch iSEE() with the specified configuration. This package currently works seamlessly with the sets of panels provided by the iSEE and iSEEu packages, but can be extended to accommodate the usage of any custom panel (e.g. from iSEEde, iSEEpathways, or any panel developed independently by the user).
