dominoSignal is a package developed to analyze cell signaling through ligand - receptor - transcription factor networks in scRNAseq data. It takes as input information transcriptomic data, requiring counts, z-scored counts, and cluster labels, as well as information on transcription factor activation (such as from SCENIC) and a database of ligand and receptor pairings (such as from CellPhoneDB). This package creates an object storing ligand - receptor - transcription factor linkages by cluster and provides several methods for exploring, summarizing, and visualizing the analysis.
tidyFlowCore bridges the gap between flow cytometry analysis using the flowCore Bioconductor package and the tidy data principles advocated by the tidyverse. It provides a suite of dplyr-, ggplot2-, and tidyr-like verbs specifically designed for working with flowFrame and flowSet objects as if they were tibbles; however, your data remain flowCore data structures under this layer of abstraction. tidyFlowCore enables intuitive and streamlined analysis workflows that can leverage both the Bioconductor and tidyverse ecosystems for cytometry data.

This package provides two functions: Group_function() and Parallel_Tree(). Group_function() applies a given function (e.g., mean()) to input variable(s) by group across levels of a multilevel data structure, with additional data management options. Parallel_Tree() uses ggplot2 to create parallel coordinate plots (technically a facsimile of parallel coordinate plots in a Cartesian coordinate system). Used in combination, these functions can create parallel tree plots, a variant of parallel coordinate plots useful for visualizing multilevel data.
This package provides a re-implementation of quantile kriging. Quantile kriging was described by Plumlee and Tuo (2014) <doi:10.1080/00401706.2013.860919>. With computational savings when dealing with replication from the recent paper by Binois, Gramacy, and Ludovski (2018) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2018.1458625> it is now possible to apply quantile kriging to a wider class of problems. In addition to fitting the model, other useful tools are provided such as the ability to automatically perform leave-one-out cross validation.
This package provides tools for checking whether an R session is in a clean state, including the global environment, attached packages, loaded namespaces, attached environments, session run time, R options, locale settings, and system environment variables. Intended as a safer replacement for the common rm(list = ls()) idiom: rather than silently wiping the global environment, sessioncheck() surfaces problems so the user can make an informed decision. The package also supplies tools for documenting the session state, to aid in the overall process.

This package extends the fitdistr function of the MASS package with several functions to help the fit of a parametric distribution to non-censored or censored data. Censored data may contain left-censored, right-censored and interval-censored values, with several lower and upper bounds. In addition to maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), the package provides moment matching (MME), quantile matching (QME) and maximum goodness-of-fit estimation (MGE) methods (available only for non-censored data). Weighted versions of MLE, MME and QME are available.
Penalized variable selection tools for the Cox proportional hazards model with interval censored and possibly left truncated data. It performs variable selection via penalized nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation with an adaptive lasso penalty.

This package provides software to facilitate the design, testing, and operation of computer models. It focuses particularly on tools that make it easy to construct and edit a customized graphical user interface ('GUI'). Although our simplified GUI language depends heavily on the R interface to the Tcl/Tk package, a user does not need to know Tcl/Tk'. Examples illustrate models built with other R packages, including PBSmapping', PBSddesolve', and BRugs'. A complete user's guide PBSmodelling-UG.pdf shows how to use this package effectively.

Bayesian models are used to estimate effect sizes (e.g., gene expression changes, protein abundance differences, drug response effects) while accounting for uncertainty, small sample sizes, and complex experimental designs. However, Bayesian posteriors of models with many parameters are often difficult to interpret at a glance. One way to quickly identify important biological changes based on frequentist analysis are volcano plots (using fold-changes and p-values). Bayesian volcano plots bring together the explicit treatment of uncertainty in Bayesian models and the familiar visualization of volcano plots.
Provided data containing an outcome variable, compositional variables and additional covariates (optional); linearly regress the outcome variable on an isometric log ratio (ilr) transformation of the linearly dependent compositional variables. The package provides predictions (with confidence intervals) in the change (delta) in the outcome/response variable based on the multiple linear regression model and evenly spaced reallocations of the compositional values. The compositional data analysis approach implemented is outlined in Dumuid et al. (2017a) <doi:10.1177/0962280217710835> and Dumuid et al. (2017b) <doi:10.1177/0962280217737805>.
