The spicyR package provides a framework for performing inference on changes in spatial relationships between pairs of cell types for cell-resolution spatial omics technologies. spicyR consists of three primary steps: (i) summarizing the degree of spatial localization between pairs of cell types for each image; (ii) modelling the variability in localization summary statistics as a function of cell counts and (iii) testing for changes in spatial localizations associated with a response variable.

Bulk RNA-seq from GTEx on 4,000 randomly selected, expressed genes. Data has been processed for co-expression analysis.

This package is designed for calling lineage-informative mitochondrial mutations using single-cell sequencing data, such as scRNASeq and scATACSeq (preferably the latter due to RNA editing issues). It includes functions for mutation calling and visualization. Mutation calling is done using beta-binomial distribution.

This package implements the spatially aware library size normalisation algorithm, SpaNorm. SpaNorm normalises out library size effects while retaining biology through the modelling of smooth functions for each effect. Normalisation is performed in a gene- and cell-/spot- specific manner, yielding library size adjusted data.

scLang is a suite for package development for scRNA-seq analysis. It offers functions that can operate on both Seurat and SingleCellExperiment objects. These functions are primarily aimed to help developers build tools compatible with both types of input.

This is a data package that hosts annotated sub-cellular localised datasets from the STOmics, Xenium and CosMx platforms. Specifically, it hosts datasets analysed in the publication Bhuva et. al, 2024 titled "Library size confounds biology in spatial transcriptomics data". Raw transcript detections are hosted and functions to convert them to SpatialExperiment objects have been implemented.

An unsupervised cross-validation method to select the optimal number of mutational signatures. A data set of mutational counts is split into training and validation data.Signatures are estimated in the training data and then used to predict the mutations in the validation data.

This package allows users to estimate the science-wise false discovery rate from Jager and Leek, "Empirical estimates suggest most published medical research is true," 2013, Biostatistics, using an EM approach due to the presence of rounding and censoring. It also allows users to estimate the false discovery rate conditional on covariates, using a regression framework, as per Boca and Leek, "A direct approach to estimating false discovery rates conditional on covariates," 2018, PeerJ.

srnadiff is a package that finds differently expressed regions from RNA-seq data at base-resolution level without relying on existing annotation. To do so, the package implements the identify-then-annotate methodology that builds on the idea of combining two pipelines approachs differential expressed regions detection and differential expression quantification. It reads BAM files as input, and outputs a list differentially regions, together with the adjusted p-values.

SEMPLR computes transcription factor binding affinity scores for genomic positions and genetic variants. Scores are computed from SNP Effect Matrices (SEMs) produced by SEMpl. 223 pre-computed SEMs are included with the package or custom sets can be provided. Enrichment can be tested among sets of genomic positions to determine if transcription factor binding events occur more often than expected. Comparing binding affinity scores between alleles can reveal differences in transcription factor binding with genetic variation. This package also includes several visualization functions to view scores both on the motif and variant/position level.

This package provides a shiny interface to the scanMiR package. The application enables the scanning of transcripts and custom sequences for miRNA binding sites, the visualization of KdModels and binding results, as well as browsing predicted repression data. In addition contains the IndexedFst class for fast indexed reading of large GenomicRanges or data.frames, and some utilities for facilitating scans and identifying enriched miRNA-target pairs.

Spatially-aware quality control (QC) software for both spot-level and artifact-level QC in spot-based spatial transcripomics, such as 10x Visium. These methods calculate local (nearest-neighbors) mean and variance of standard QC metrics (library size, unique genes, and mitochondrial percentage) to identify outliers spot and large technical artifacts.

Subtypes are defined as groups of samples that have distinct molecular and clinical features. Genomic data can be analyzed for discovering patient subtypes, associated with clinical data, especially for survival information. This package is aimed to identify subtypes that are both clinically relevant and biologically meaningful.

Filtering of lowly expressed features (e.g. genes) is a common step before performing statistical analysis, but an arbitrary threshold is generally chosen. SeqGate implements a method that rationalize this step by the analysis of the distibution of counts in replicate samples. The gate is the threshold above which sequenced features can be considered as confidently quantified.

Cell differentiation processes are achieved through a continuum of hierarchical intermediate cell-states that might be captured by single-cell RNA seq. Existing computational approaches for the assessment of cell-state hierarchies from single-cell data might be formalized under a general workflow composed of i) a metric to assess cell-to-cell similarities (combined or not with a dimensionality reduction step), and ii) a graph-building algorithm (optionally making use of a cells-clustering step). Sincell R package implements a methodological toolbox allowing flexible workflows under such framework. Furthermore, Sincell contributes new algorithms to provide cell-state hierarchies with statistical support while accounting for stochastic factors in single-cell RNA seq. Graphical representations and functional association tests are provided to interpret hierarchies.

spiky implements methods and model generation for cfMeDIP (cell-free methylated DNA immunoprecipitation) with spike-in controls. CfMeDIP is an enrichment protocol which avoids destructive conversion of scarce template, making it ideal as a "liquid biopsy," but creating certain challenges in comparing results across specimens, subjects, and experiments. The use of synthetic spike-in standard oligos allows diagnostics performed with cfMeDIP to quantitatively compare samples across subjects, experiments, and time points in both relative and absolute terms.

This package provides a streamlined tool provides a graphical user interface for quality control based signal drift correction (QC-RFSC), integration of data from multi-batch MS-based experiments, and the comprehensive statistical analysis in metabolomics and proteomics.

Splatter is a package for the simulation of single-cell RNA sequencing count data. It provides a simple interface for creating complex simulations that are reproducible and well-documented. Parameters can be estimated from real data and functions are provided for comparing real and simulated datasets.

This package performs a gene expression data analysis to detect condition-specific genes. Such genes are significantly up- or down-regulated in a small number of conditions. It does so by fitting a mixture of normal distributions to the expression values. Conditions can be environmental conditions, different tissues, organs or any other sources that you wish to compare in terms of gene expression.

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.

SPICEY (SPecificity Index for Coding and Epigenetic activitY) is an R package designed to quantify cell-type specificity in single-cell transcriptomic and epigenomic data, particularly scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq. It introduces two complementary indices: the Gene Expression Tissue Specificity Index (GETSI) and the Regulatory Element Tissue Specificity Index (RETSI), both based on entropy to provide continuous, interpretable measures of specificity. By integrating gene expression and chromatin accessibility, SPICEY enables standardized analysis of cell-type-specific regulatory programs across diverse tissues and conditions.

SNAGEE data - gene list and correlation matrix.

This package does k-nearest neighbor based statistics and visualizations with flow and mass cytometery data. This gives tSNE maps"fold change" functionality and provides a data quality metric by assessing manifold overlap between fcs files expected to be the same. Other applications using this package include imputation, marker redundancy, and testing the relative information loss of lower dimension embeddings compared to the original manifold.
