High-throughput sequencing experiments followed by differential expression analysis is a widely used approach to detect genomic biomarkers. A fundamental step in differential expression analysis is to model the association between gene counts and covariates of interest. NBAMSeq a flexible statistical model based on the generalized additive model and allows for information sharing across genes in variance estimation.

Method for scalable identification of spatially variable genes (SVGs) in spatially-resolved transcriptomics data. The method is based on nearest-neighbor Gaussian processes and uses the BRISC algorithm for model fitting and parameter estimation. Allows identification and ranking of SVGs with flexible length scales across a tissue slide or within spatial domains defined by covariates. Scales linearly with the number of spatial locations and can be applied to datasets containing thousands or more spatial locations.

This package provides functions for the selection of optimal reference genes and the normalisation of real-time quantitative PCR data.

ncRNAtools provides a set of basic tools for handling and analyzing non-coding RNAs. These include tools to access the RNAcentral database and to predict and visualize the secondary structure of non-coding RNAs. The package also provides tools to read, write and interconvert the file formats most commonly used for representing such secondary structures.

NetPathMiner is a general framework for network path mining using genome-scale networks. It constructs networks from KGML, SBML and BioPAX files, providing three network representations, metabolic, reaction and gene representations. NetPathMiner finds active paths and applies machine learning methods to summarize found paths for easy interpretation. It also provides static and interactive visualizations of networks and paths to aid manual investigation.

Computes Multiple Co-Inertia Analysis (MCIA), a dimensionality reduction (jDR) algorithm, for a multi-block dataset using a modification to the Nonlinear Iterative Partial Least Squares method (NIPALS) proposed in (Hanafi et. al, 2010). Allows multiple options for row- and table-level preprocessing, and speeds up computation of variance explained. Vignettes detail application to bulk- and single cell- multi-omics studies.

Modular package for generation of sets of ranges representing the null hypothesis. These can take the form of bootstrap samples of ranges (using the block bootstrap framework of Bickel et al 2010), or sets of control ranges that are matched across one or more covariates. nullranges is designed to be inter-operable with other packages for analysis of genomic overlap enrichment, including the plyranges Bioconductor package.

This package provides next-generation sequencing (NGS) and mass spectrometry (MS) sample data, code snippets and replication material used for developing NestLink. The NestLink approach is a protein binder selection and identification technology able to biophysically characterize thousands of library members at once without handling individual clones at any stage of the process. Data were acquired on NGS and MS platforms at the Functional Genomics Center Zurich.

NxtIRFdata is a companion package for SpliceWiz, an interactive analysis and visualization tool for alternative splicing quantitation (including intron retention) for RNA-seq BAM files. NxtIRFdata contains Mappability files required for the generation of human and mouse references. NxtIRFdata also contains a synthetic genome reference and example BAM files used to demonstrate SpliceWiz's functionality. BAM files are based on 6 samples from the Leucegene dataset provided by NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus under accession number GSE67039.

# NetActivity enables to compute gene set scores from previously trained sparsely-connected autoencoders. The package contains a function to prepare the data (`prepareSummarizedExperiment`) and a function to compute the gene set scores (`computeGeneSetScores`). The package `NetActivityData` contains different pre-trained models to be directly applied to the data. Alternatively, the users might use the package to compute gene set scores using custom models.

Perform non-parametric analysis of response curves as described by Childs, Bach, Franken et al. (2019): Non-parametric analysis of thermal proteome profiles reveals novel drug-binding proteins.

nuCpos, a derivative of NuPoP, is an R package for prediction of nucleosome positions. nuCpos calculates local and whole nucleosomal histone binding affinity (HBA) scores for a given 147-bp sequence. Note: This package was designed to demonstrate the use of chemical maps in prediction. As the parental package NuPoP now provides chemical-map-based prediction, the function for dHMM-based prediction was removed from this package. nuCpos continues to provide functions for HBA calculation.

This package contains the weights from pre-trained shallow sparsely-connected autoencoders. This data is required for getting the gene set scores with NetActivity package.

Current gene set enrichment methods rely upon permutations for inference. These approaches are computationally expensive and have minimum achievable p-values based on the number of permutations, not on the actual observed statistics. We have derived three parametric approximations to the permutation distributions of two gene set enrichment test statistics. We are able to reduce the computational burden and granularity issues of permutation testing with our method, which is implemented in this package. npGSEA calculates gene set enrichment statistics and p-values without the computational cost of permutations. It is applicable in settings where one or many gene sets are of interest. There are also built-in plotting functions to help users visualize results.

The purpose of ncGTW is to help XCMS for LC-MS data alignment. Currently, ncGTW can detect the misaligned feature groups by XCMS, and the user can choose to realign these feature groups by ncGTW or not.

OncoScore is a tool to measure the association of genes to cancer based on citation frequencies in biomedical literature. The score is evaluated from PubMed literature by dynamically updatable web queries.

OSTA.data is a companion package for the "Orchestrating Spatial Transcriptomics Analysis" (OSTA) with Bioconductor online book. Throughout OSTA, we rely on a set of publicly available datasets that cover different sequencing- and imaging-based platforms, such as Visium, Visium HD, Xenium (10x Genomics) and CosMx (NanoString). In addition, we rely on scRNA-seq (Chromium) data for tasks, e.g., spot deconvolution and label transfer (i.e., supervised clustering). These data been deposited in an Open Storage Framework (OSF) repository, and can be queried and downloaded using functions from the osfr package. For convenience, we have implemented OSTA.data to query and retrieve data from our OSF node, and cache retrieved Zip archives using BiocFileCache'.

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

This package provides a sizable genomics study such as microarray often involves the use of multiple batches (groups) of experiment due to practical complication. To minimize batch effects, a careful experiment design should ensure the even distribution of biological groups and confounding factors across batches. OSAT (Optimal Sample Assignment Tool) is developed to facilitate the allocation of collected samples to different batches. With minimum steps, it produces setup that optimizes the even distribution of samples in groups of biological interest into different batches, reducing the confounding or correlation between batches and the biological variables of interest. It can also optimize the even distribution of confounding factors across batches. Our tool can handle challenging instances where incomplete and unbalanced sample collections are involved as well as ideal balanced RCBD. OSAT provides a number of predefined layout for some of the most commonly used genomics platform. Related paper can be find at http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/13/689 .
