This package provides functionality to run a number of tasks in the differential expression analysis workflow. This encompasses the most widely used steps, from running various enrichment analysis tools with a unified interface to creating plots and beautifying table components linking to external websites and databases. This streamlines the generation of comprehensive analysis reports.

This package defines low-level functions for mass spectrometry data and is independent of any high-level data structures. These functions include mass spectra processing functions (noise estimation, smoothing, binning), quantitative aggregation functions (median polish, robust summarisation, etc.), missing data imputation, data normalisation (quantiles, vsn, etc.) as well as misc helper functions, that are used across high-level data structure within the R for Mass Spectrometry packages.

This package implements a new RNA-Seq analysis method and integrates two modules: a basic model for pairwise comparison and a linear model for complex design. RNA-Seq quantifies gene expression with reads count, which usually consists of conditions (or treatments) and several replicates for each condition. This software infers differential expression directly by the counts difference between conditions. It assumes that the sum counts difference between conditions follow a negative binomial distribution. In addition, ABSSeq moderates the fold-changes by two steps: the expression level and gene-specific dispersion, that might facilitate the gene ranking by fold-change and visualization.

The parody package provides routines for univariate and multivariate outlier detection with a focus on parametric methods, but support for some methods based on resistant statistics.

This package provides repository information for the appropriate version of Bioconductor.

The MBECS provides a set of functions to evaluate and mitigate unwated noise due to processing in batches. To that end it incorporates a host of batch correcting algorithms (BECA) from various packages. In addition it offers a correction and reporting pipeline that provides a preliminary look at the characteristics of a data-set before and after correcting for batch effects.

The differences in the RNA types being sequenced have an impact on the resulting sequencing profiles. mRNA-seq data is enriched with reads derived from exons, while GRO-, nucRNA- and chrRNA-seq demonstrate a substantial broader coverage of both exonic and intronic regions. The presence of intronic reads in GRO-seq type of data makes it possible to use it to computationally identify and quantify all de novo continuous regions of transcription distributed across the genome. This type of data, however, is more challenging to interpret and less common practice compared to mRNA-seq. One of the challenges for primary transcript detection concerns the simultaneous transcription of closely spaced genes, which needs to be properly divided into individually transcribed units. The R package transcriptR combines RNA-seq data with ChIP-seq data of histone modifications that mark active Transcription Start Sites (TSSs), such as, H3K4me3 or H3K9/14Ac to overcome this challenge. The advantage of this approach over the use of, for example, gene annotations is that this approach is data driven and therefore able to deal also with novel and case specific events.

Representing nucleotide modifications in a nucleotide sequence is usually done via special characters from a number of sources. This represents a challenge to work with in R and the Biostrings package. The Modstrings package implements this functionality for RNA and DNA sequences containing modified nucleotides by translating the character internally in order to work with the infrastructure of the Biostrings package. For this the ModRNAString and ModDNAString classes and derivates and functions to construct and modify these objects despite the encoding issues are implemenented. In addition the conversion from sequences to list like location information (and the reverse operation) is implemented as well.

This package provides an implementation of the BRGE's (Bioinformatic Research Group in Epidemiology from Center for Research in Environmental Epidemiology) MultiDataSet and ResultSet. MultiDataSet is designed for integrating multi omics data sets and ResultSet is a container for omics results. This package contains base classes for MEAL and rexposome packages.

Exploratory data analysis to assess the quality of a set of LC-MS/MS experiments, and visualize de influence of the involved factors.

This package provides functions to estimate a bipartite graph of protein complex membership using AP-MS data.

This is an R package for interfacing with the BIOM format. This package includes basic tools for reading biom-format files, accessing and subsetting data tables from a biom object (which is more complex than a single table), as well as limited support for writing a biom-object back to a biom-format file. The design of this API is intended to match the Python API and other tools included with the biom-format project, but with a decidedly "R flavor" that should be familiar to R users. This includes S4 classes and methods, as well as extensions of common core functions/methods.

GOfuncR performs a gene ontology enrichment analysis based on the ontology enrichment software FUNC. GO-annotations are obtained from OrganismDb or OrgDb packages (Homo.sapiens by default); the GO-graph is included in the package and updated regularly. GOfuncR provides the standard candidate vs background enrichment analysis using the hypergeometric test, as well as three additional tests:

1. the Wilcoxon rank-sum test that is used when genes are ranked,

2. a binomial test that is used when genes are associated with two counts, and

3. a Chi-square or Fisher's exact test that is used in cases when genes are associated with four counts.

To correct for multiple testing and interdependency of the tests, family-wise error rates are computed based on random permutations of the gene-associated variables. GOfuncR also provides tools for exploring the ontology graph and the annotations, and options to take gene-length or spatial clustering of genes into account. It is also possible to provide custom gene coordinates, annotations and ontologies.

The goal of sansSouci is to perform post hoc inference: in a multiple testing context, sansSouci provides statistical guarantees on possibly user-defined and/or data-driven sets of hypotheses.

This package provides HDF5 storage based methods and functions for manipulation of flow cytometry data.

r-circrnaprofiler is a computational framework for a comprehensive in silico analysis of circular RNA (circRNAs). This computational framework allows combining and analyzing circRNAs previously detected by multiple publicly available annotation-based circRNA detection tools. It covers different aspects of circRNAs analysis from differential expression analysis, evolutionary conservation, biogenesis to functional analysis.

This package provides functions to fit nonparametric survival curves, plot them, and perform logrank or Wilcoxon type tests.

This package is designed to facilitate the automated gating methods in a sequential way to mimic the manual gating strategy.

Complex heatmaps are efficient to visualize associations between different sources of data sets and reveal potential structures. This package provides a highly flexible way to arrange multiple heatmaps and supports self-defined annotation graphics.

This package is importing data from Illumina SNP experiments and it performs copy number calculations and reports.

Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) is widely used to investigate the composition of complex tissues since the technology allows researchers to define cell-types using unsupervised clustering of the transcriptome. However, due to differences in experimental methods and computational analyses, it is often challenging to directly compare the cells identified in two different experiments. scmap is a method for projecting cells from a scRNA-seq experiment onto the cell-types or individual cells identified in a different experiment.

This package provides a simple, fast Bayesian method for computing posterior probabilities for relationships between a single predictor variable and multiple potential outcome variables, incorporating prior probabilities of relationships. In the context of knockdown experiments, the predictor variable is the knocked-down gene, while the other genes are potential targets. It can also be used for differential expression/2-class data.
