An R package for multiple-group comparison to detect tissue/cell-specific marker genes among subtypes. It provides functions to compute OVESEG-test statistics, derive component weights in the mixture null distribution model and estimate p-values from weightedly aggregated permutations. Obtained posterior probabilities of component null hypotheses can also portrait all kinds of upregulation patterns among subtypes.

This package performs outlier detection of sequences in a multiple sequence alignment using bootstrap of predefined distance metrics. Outlier sequences can make downstream analyses unreliable or make the alignments less accurate while they are being constructed. This package implements the OD-seq algorithm proposed by Jehl et al (doi 10.1186/s12859-015-0702-1) for aligned sequences and a variant using string kernels for unaligned sequences.

Genome wide annotation for Malaria, primarily based on mapping using Entrez Gene identifiers.

This package provides genome-wide annotation for Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, primarily based on mapping using custom gene identifiers. This OrgDb annotation package is intended for use with AnnotationDbi-based tools and supports querying of gene identifiers and related metadata.

OGRE calculates overlap between user defined genomic region datasets. Any regions can be supplied i.e. genes, SNPs, or reads from sequencing experiments. Key numbers help analyse the extend of overlaps which can also be visualized at a genomic level.

Genome wide annotation for Chimp, primarily based on mapping using Entrez Gene identifiers.

Identification of aberrant gene expression in RNA-seq data. Read count expectations are modeled by an autoencoder to control for confounders in the data. Given these expectations, the RNA-seq read counts are assumed to follow a negative binomial distribution with a gene-specific dispersion. Outliers are then identified as read counts that significantly deviate from this distribution. Furthermore, OUTRIDER provides useful plotting functions to analyze and visualize the results.

Support harvesting of diverse bioinformatic ontologies, making particular use of the ontologyIndex package on CRAN. We provide snapshots of key ontologies for terms about cells, cell lines, chemical compounds, and anatomy, to help analyze genome-scale experiments, particularly cell x compound screens. Another purpose is to strengthen development of compelling use cases for richer interfaces to emerging ontologies.

Detection of similarities between ordered lists of genes. Thereby, either simple lists can be compared or gene expression data can be used to deduce the lists. Significance of similarities is evaluated by shuffling lists or by resampling in microarray data, respectively.

Optimal-transport techniques applied to supervised flow cytometry gating.

Genome wide annotation for Myxococcus xanthus DK 1622, primarily based on mapping using Gene identifiers.

This package provides functions to browse the harmonized metadata for large omics databases. This package also supports data navigation if the metadata incorporates ontology.

Genome wide annotation for Pig, primarily based on mapping using Entrez Gene identifiers.

Symptomatic heterogeneity in complex diseases reveals differences in molecular states that need to be investigated. However, selecting the numerous parameters of an exploratory clustering analysis in RNA profiling studies requires deep understanding of machine learning and extensive computational experimentation. Tools that assist with such decisions without prior field knowledge are nonexistent and further gene association analyses need to be performed independently. We have developed a suite of tools to automate these processes and make robust unsupervised clustering of transcriptomic data more accessible through automated machine learning based functions. The efficiency of each tool was tested with four datasets characterised by different expression signal strengths. Our toolkit’s decisions reflected the real number of stable partitions in datasets where the subgroups are discernible. Even in datasets with less clear biological distinctions, stable subgroups with different expression profiles and clinical associations were found.

omicsViewer visualizes ExpressionSet (or SummarizedExperiment) in an interactive way. The omicsViewer has a separate back- and front-end. In the back-end, users need to prepare an ExpressionSet that contains all the necessary information for the downstream data interpretation. Some extra requirements on the headers of phenotype data or feature data are imposed so that the provided information can be clearly recognized by the front-end, at the same time, keep a minimum modification on the existing ExpressionSet object. The pure dependency on R/Bioconductor guarantees maximum flexibility in the statistical analysis in the back-end. Once the ExpressionSet is prepared, it can be visualized using the front-end, implemented by shiny and plotly. Both features and samples could be selected from (data) tables or graphs (scatter plot/heatmap). Different types of analyses, such as enrichment analysis (using Bioconductor package fgsea or fisher's exact test) and STRING network analysis, will be performed on the fly and the results are visualized simultaneously. When a subset of samples and a phenotype variable is selected, a significance test on means (t-test or ranked based test; when phenotype variable is quantitative) or test of independence (chi-square or fisher’s exact test; when phenotype data is categorical) will be performed to test the association between the phenotype of interest with the selected samples. Additionally, other analyses can be easily added as extra shiny modules. Therefore, omicsViewer will greatly facilitate data exploration, many different hypotheses can be explored in a short time without the need for knowledge of R. In addition, the resulting data could be easily shared using a shiny server. Otherwise, a standalone version of omicsViewer together with designated omics data could be easily created by integrating it with portable R, which can be shared with collaborators or submitted as supplementary data together with a manuscript.

Genome wide annotation for Xenopus, primarily based on mapping using Entrez Gene identifiers.

An implementation of methods for designing, evaluating, and comparing primer sets for multiplex PCR. Primers are designed by solving a set cover problem such that the number of covered template sequences is maximized with the smallest possible set of primers. To guarantee that high-quality primers are generated, only primers fulfilling constraints on their physicochemical properties are selected. A Shiny app providing a user interface for the functionalities of this package is provided by the openPrimeRui package.

This package allows users to control the false discovery rate (FDR) or familywise error rate (FWER) for online multiple hypothesis testing, where hypotheses arrive in a stream. In this framework, a null hypothesis is rejected based on the evidence against it and on the previous rejection decisions.

Genome wide annotation for E coli strain Sakai, primarily based on mapping using Entrez Gene identifiers.

Open Cancer TherApeutic Discovery (OCTAD) package implies sRGES approach for the drug discovery. The essential idea is to identify drugs that reverse the gene expression signature of a disease by tamping down over-expressed genes and stimulating weakly expressed ones. The following package contains all required precomputed data for whole OCTAD pipeline computation.

This packages provides C++ header files for developers wishing to create R packages that processes BAM files. ompBAM automates file access, memory management, and handling of multiple threads behind the scenes', so developers can focus on creating domain-specific functionality. The included vignette contains detailed documentation of this API, including quick-start instructions to create a new ompBAM-based package, and step-by-step explanation of the functionality behind the example packaged included within ompBAM.

This package provides a platform for Operational Taxonomic Unit based analysis.

This package allows to characterize the operating characteristics of a microarray experiment, i.e. the trade-off between false discovery rate and the power to detect truly regulated genes. The package includes tools both for planned experiments (for sample size assessment) and for already collected data (identification of differentially expressed genes).
