This package takes a list of p-values resulting from the simultaneous testing of many hypotheses and estimates their q-values and local false discovery rate (FDR) values. The q-value of a test measures the proportion of false positives incurred when that particular test is called significant. The local FDR measures the posterior probability the null hypothesis is true given the test's p-value. Various plots are automatically generated, allowing one to make sensible significance cut-offs. The software can be applied to problems in genomics, brain imaging, astrophysics, and data mining.

This package makes GREAT (Genomic Regions Enrichment of Annotations Tool) analysis automatic by constructing a HTTP POST request according to user's input and automatically retrieving results from GREAT web server.

This package provides tools for differential expression biomarker discovery based on microarray and next-generation sequencing data that leverage efficient semiparametric estimators of the average treatment effect for variable importance analysis. Estimation and inference of the (marginal) average treatment effects of potential biomarkers are computed by targeted minimum loss-based estimation, with joint, stable inference constructed across all biomarkers using a generalization of moderated statistics for use with the estimated efficient influence function. The procedure accommodates the use of ensemble machine learning for the estimation of nuisance functions.

The airpart package identifies sets of genes displaying differential cell-type-specific allelic imbalance across cell types or states, utilizing single-cell allelic counts. It makes use of a generalized fused lasso with binomial observations of allelic counts to partition cell types by their allelic imbalance. Alternatively, a nonparametric method for partitioning cell types is offered. The package includes a number of visualizations and quality control functions for examining single cell allelic imbalance datasets.

The necessary external data to run the flowWorkspace and openCyto vignette is found in this package. This data package contains two flowJo, one diva xml workspace and the associated fcs files as well as three GatingSets for testing the flowWorkspace, openCyto and CytoML packages.

This package AMARETTO represents an algorithm that integrates copy number, DNA methylation and gene expression data to identify a set of driver genes by analyzing cancer samples and connects them to clusters of co-expressed genes, which we define as modules. AMARETTO can be applied in a pancancer setting to identify cancer driver genes and their modules on multiple cancer sites. AMARETTO captures modules enriched in angiogenesis, cell cycle and EMT, and modules that accurately predict survival and molecular subtypes. This allows AMARETTO to identify novel cancer driver genes directing canonical cancer pathways.

This package wires together large collections of single-cell RNA-seq datasets, which allows for both the identification of recurrent cell clusters and the propagation of information between datasets in multi-sample or atlas-scale collections. Conos focuses on the uniform mapping of homologous cell types across heterogeneous sample collections. For instance, users could investigate a collection of dozens of peripheral blood samples from cancer patients combined with dozens of controls, which perhaps includes samples of a related tissue such as lymph nodes.

This package provides a package to perform differential network analysis, differential node analysis (differential coexpression analysis), network and metabolic pathways view.

This package provides an alternative interface to Bioconductor annotation resources, in particular the gene identifier mapping functionality of the org packages (e.g., org.Hs.eg.db) and the genome coordinate functionality of the TxDb packages (e.g., TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg38.knownGene).

This is a package to perform the Adaptive Robust Regression method (ARRm) for the normalization of methylation data from the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation 450k assay.

Piano performs gene set analysis using various statistical methods, from different gene level statistics and a wide range of gene-set collections. The package contains functions for combining the results of multiple runs of gene set analyses.

The package provides two frameworks. One for the differential transcript usage analysis between different conditions and one for the tuQTL analysis. Both are based on modeling the counts of genomic features (i.e., transcripts) with the Dirichlet-multinomial distribution. The package also makes available functions for visualization and exploration of the data and results.

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.

This package provides utility functions for manipulating, processing, and analyzing mass spectrometry-based single-cell proteomics data. The package is an extension to the QFeatures package and relies on SingleCellExpirement to enable single-cell proteomics analyses. The package offers the user the functionality to process quantitative table (as generated by MaxQuant, Proteome Discoverer, and more) into data tables ready for downstream analysis and data visualization.

This package includes details on variants for each probe on the 450k bead chip for each of the four populations (Asian, American, African and European).

This package can do non-parametric bootstrap and permutation resampling-based multiple testing procedures (including empirical Bayes methods) for controlling the family-wise error rate (FWER), generalized family-wise error rate (gFWER), tail probability of the proportion of false positives (TPPFP), and false discovery rate (FDR). Several choices of bootstrap-based null distribution are implemented (centered, centered and scaled, quantile-transformed). Single-step and step-wise methods are available. Tests based on a variety of T- and F-statistics (including T-statistics based on regression parameters from linear and survival models as well as those based on correlation parameters) are included. When probing hypotheses with T-statistics, users may also select a potentially faster null distribution which is multivariate normal with mean zero and variance covariance matrix derived from the vector influence function. Results are reported in terms of adjusted P-values, confidence regions and test statistic cutoffs. The procedures are directly applicable to identifying differentially expressed genes in DNA microarray experiments.
