The CytoGLMM R package implements two multiple regression strategies: A bootstrapped generalized linear model (GLM) and a generalized linear mixed model (GLMM). Most current data analysis tools compare expressions across many computationally discovered cell types. CytoGLMM focuses on just one cell type. Our narrower field of application allows us to define a more specific statistical model with easier to control statistical guarantees. As a result, CytoGLMM finds differential proteins in flow and mass cytometry data while reducing biases arising from marker correlations and safeguarding against false discoveries induced by patient heterogeneity.

This package provides functions for preprocessing, automated gating and meta-analysis of cytometry data. It also provides functions that facilitate the collection of cytometry data from the ImmPort database.

MPRAnalyze provides statistical framework for the analysis of data generated by Massively Parallel Reporter Assays (MPRAs), used to directly measure enhancer activity. MPRAnalyze can be used for quantification of enhancer activity, classification of active enhancers and comparative analyses of enhancer activity between conditions. MPRAnalyze construct a nested pair of generalized linear models (GLMs) to relate the DNA and RNA observations, easily adjustable to various experimental designs and conditions, and provides a set of rigorous statistical testig schemes.

This package provides functions that predict clinical outcomes using single cell data (such as flow cytometry data, RNA single cell sequencing data) without the requirement of cell gating or clustering.

Identifies maximal differential cell populations in flow cytometry data taking into account dependencies between cell populations; flowGraph calculates and plots SpecEnr abundance scores given cell population cell counts.

The GENESIS package provides methodology for estimating, inferring, and accounting for population and pedigree structure in genetic analyses. The current implementation provides functions to perform PC-AiR (Conomos et al., 2015, Gen Epi) and PC-Relate (Conomos et al., 2016, AJHG). PC-AiR performs a Principal Components Analysis on genome-wide SNP data for the detection of population structure in a sample that may contain known or cryptic relatedness. Unlike standard PCA, PC-AiR accounts for relatedness in the sample to provide accurate ancestry inference that is not confounded by family structure. PC-Relate uses ancestry representative principal components to adjust for population structure/ancestry and accurately estimate measures of recent genetic relatedness such as kinship coefficients, IBD sharing probabilities, and inbreeding coefficients. Additionally, functions are provided to perform efficient variance component estimation and mixed model association testing for both quantitative and binary phenotypes.
