This package performs multi-omic differential network analysis by revealing differential interactions between molecular entities (genes, proteins, transcription factors, or other biomolecules) across the omic datasets provided. For each omic dataset, a differential network is constructed where links represent statistically significant differential interactions between entities. These networks are then integrated into a comprehensive visualization using distinct colors to distinguish interactions from different omic layers. This unified display allows interactive exploration of cross-omic patterns, such as differential interactions present at both transcript and protein levels. For each link, users can access differential statistical significance metrics (p values or adjusted p values, calculated via robust or traditional linear regression with interaction term) and differential regression plots. The methods implemented in this package are described in Sciacca et al. (2023) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btad192>.

The tools for MicroRNA Set Enrichment Analysis can identify risk pathways(or prior gene sets) regulated by microRNA set in the context of microRNA expression data. (1) This package constructs a correlation profile of microRNA and pathways by the hypergeometric statistic test. The gene sets of pathways derived from the three public databases (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes ('KEGG'); Reactome'; Biocarta') and the target gene sets of microRNA are provided by four databases('TarBaseV6.0'; mir2Disease'; miRecords'; miRTarBase';). (2) This package can quantify the change of correlation between microRNA for each pathway(or prior gene set) based on a microRNA expression data with cases and controls. (3) This package uses the weighted Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic to calculate an enrichment score (ES) of a microRNA set that co-regulate to a pathway , which reflects the degree to which a given pathway is associated with the specific phenotype. (4) This package can provide the visualization of the results.

This algorithm provides a numerical solution to the problem of unconstrained local minimization (or maximization). It is particularly suited for complex problems and more efficient than the Gauss-Newton-like algorithm when starting from points very far from the final minimum (or maximum). Each iteration is parallelized and convergence relies on a stringent stopping criterion based on the first and second derivatives. See Philipps et al, 2021 <doi:10.32614/RJ-2021-089>.

Mixtures of skewed and elliptical distributions are implemented using mixtures of multivariate skew power exponential and power exponential distributions, respectively. A generalized expectation-maximization framework is used for parameter estimation. See citation() for how to cite.

This package performs Monte Carlo hypothesis tests, allowing a couple of different sequential stopping boundaries. For example, a truncated sequential probability ratio test boundary (Fay, Kim and Hachey, 2007 <DOI:10.1198/106186007X257025>) and a boundary proposed by Besag and Clifford, 1991 <DOI:10.1093/biomet/78.2.301>. Gives valid p-values and confidence intervals on p-values.

Interactions between different biological entities are crucial for the function of biological systems. In such networks, nodes represent biological elements, such as genes, proteins and microbes, and their interactions can be defined by edges, which can be either binary or weighted. The dysregulation of these networks can be associated with different clinical conditions such as diseases and response to treatments. However, such variations often occur locally and do not concern the whole network. To capture local variations of such networks, we propose multiplex network differential analysis (MNDA). MNDA allows to quantify the variations in the local neighborhood of each node (e.g. gene) between the two given clinical states, and to test for statistical significance of such variation.

The method m:Explorer associates a given list of target genes (e.g. those involved in a biological process) to gene regulators such as transcription factors. Transcription factors that bind DNA near significantly many target genes or correlate with target genes in transcriptional (microarray or RNAseq data) are selected. Selection of candidate master regulators is carried out using multinomial regression models, likelihood ratio tests and multiple testing correction.
