A unique pseudonym can be created for every unique element in a vector or row in a data frame. Pseudonyms can be customized and tracked over time, so that the same input is always assigned the same pseudonym.

BEER implements a Bayesian model for analyzing phage-immunoprecipitation sequencing (PhIP-seq) data. Given a PhIPData object, BEER returns posterior probabilities of enriched antibody responses, point estimates for the relative fold-change in comparison to negative control samples, and more. Additionally, BEER provides a convenient implementation for using edgeR to identify enriched antibody responses.

This package contains the function to assess the batch sourcs by fitting all "sources" as random effects including two-way interaction terms in the Mixed Model(depends on lme4 package) to selected principal components, which were obtained from the original data correlation matrix. This package accompanies the book "Batch Effects and Noise in Microarray Experiements, chapter 12.

Genomic data analyses requires integrated visualization of known genomic information and new experimental data. Gviz uses the biomaRt and the rtracklayer packages to perform live annotation queries to Ensembl and UCSC and translates this to e.g. gene/transcript structures in viewports of the grid graphics package. This results in genomic information plotted together with your data.

Expedite large RNA-Seq analyses using a combination of previously developed tools. YARN is meant to make it easier for the user in performing basic mis-annotation quality control, filtering, and condition-aware normalization. YARN leverages many Bioconductor tools and statistical techniques to account for the large heterogeneity and sparsity found in very large RNA-seq experiments.
