BASiCS is an integrated Bayesian hierarchical model to perform statistical analyses of single-cell RNA sequencing datasets in the context of supervised experiments (where the groups of cells of interest are known a priori. BASiCS performs built-in data normalisation (global scaling) and technical noise quantification (based on spike-in genes). BASiCS provides an intuitive detection criterion for highly (or lowly) variable genes within a single group of cells. Additionally, BASiCS can compare gene expression patterns between two or more pre-specified groups of cells.

This package implements exact and approximate methods for nearest neighbor detection, in a framework that allows them to be easily switched within Bioconductor packages or workflows. The exact algorithm is implemented using pre-clustering with the k-means algorithm. Functions are also provided to search for all neighbors within a given distance. Parallelization is achieved for all methods using the BiocParallel framework.

Oscope is a oscillatory genes identifier in unsynchronized single cell RNA-seq. This statistical pipeline has been developed to identify and recover the base cycle profiles of oscillating genes in an unsynchronized single cell RNA-seq experiment. The Oscope pipeline includes three modules: a sine model module to search for candidate oscillator pairs; a K-medoids clustering module to cluster candidate oscillators into groups; and an extended nearest insertion module to recover the base cycle order for each oscillator group.

This package supports data management of large-scale whole-genome sequencing variant calls with thousands of individuals: genotypic data (e.g., SNVs, indels and structural variation calls) and annotations in SeqArray GDS files are stored in an array-oriented and compressed manner, with efficient data access using the R programming language.

Included methods allow fitting and plotting dose-response data using established radio-biological models along with quality control to validate results. Additional functions related to fitting and plotting dose response curves, quantifying statistical correlation and calculating AUC or SF are included.

This package provides a collection of reference expression datasets with curated cell type labels, for use in procedures like automated annotation of single-cell data or deconvolution of bulk RNA-seq.

The HiTC package was developed to explore high-throughput "C" data such as 5C or Hi-C. Dedicated R classes as well as standard methods for quality controls, normalization, visualization, and further analysis are also provided.

This package allows for persistent storage, access, exploration, and manipulation of Cufflinks high-throughput sequencing data. In addition, provides numerous plotting functions for commonly used visualizations.

This package is an R program for the subset-based analysis of heterogeneous traits and disease subtypes. ASSET allows the user to search through all possible subsets of z-scores to identify the subset of traits giving the best meta-analyzed z-score. Further, it returns a p-value adjusting for the multiple-testing involved in the search. It also allows for searching for the best combination of disease subtypes associated with each variant.

This package provides tools for statistical analysis of assembled transcriptomes, including flexible differential expression analysis, visualization of transcript structures, and matching of assembled transcripts to annotation.

Analysis of Ct values from high throughput quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) assays across multiple conditions or replicates. The input data can be from spatially-defined formats such ABI TaqMan Low Density Arrays or OpenArray; LightCycler from Roche Applied Science; the CFX plates from Bio-Rad Laboratories; conventional 96- or 384-well plates; or microfluidic devices such as the Dynamic Arrays from Fluidigm Corporation. HTqPCR handles data loading, quality assessment, normalization, visualization and parametric or non-parametric testing for statistical significance in Ct values between features (e.g. genes, microRNAs).

This package provides Bayesian PCA, Probabilistic PCA, Nipals PCA, Inverse Non-Linear PCA and the conventional SVD PCA. A cluster based method for missing value estimation is included for comparison. BPCA, PPCA and NipalsPCA may be used to perform PCA on incomplete data as well as for accurate missing value estimation. A set of methods for printing and plotting the results is also provided. All PCA methods make use of the same data structure (pcaRes) to provide a common interface to the PCA results.

This package provides functions for handling translating between different identifieres using the Biocore Data Team data-packages (e.g. org.Bt.eg.db).

The lumi package provides an integrated solution for the Illumina microarray data analysis. It includes functions of Illumina BeadStudio (GenomeStudio) data input, quality control, BeadArray-specific variance stabilization, normalization and gene annotation at the probe level. It also includes the functions of processing Illumina methylation microarrays, especially Illumina Infinium methylation microarrays.

This package provides a client for the Bioconductor AnnotationHub web resource. The AnnotationHub web resource provides a central location where genomic files (e.g. VCF, bed, wig) and other resources from standard locations (e.g. UCSC, Ensembl) can be discovered. The resource includes metadata about each resource, e.g., a textual description, tags, and date of modification. The client creates and manages a local cache of files retrieved by the user, helping with quick and reproducible access.

The scDblFinder package gathers various methods for the detection and handling of doublets/multiplets in single-cell RNA sequencing data (i.e. multiple cells captured within the same droplet or reaction volume). It includes methods formerly found in the scran package, and the new fast and comprehensive scDblFinder method.

ChemmineR is a cheminformatics package for analyzing drug-like small molecule data in R. It contains functions for efficient processing of large numbers of molecules, physicochemical/structural property predictions, structural similarity searching, classification and clustering of compound libraries with a wide spectrum of algorithms. In addition, it offers visualization functions for compound clustering results and chemical structures.

This package provides full genome sequences for Danio rerio (Zebrafish) as provided by UCSC (danRer7, Jul. 2010) and stored in Biostrings objects.

The dada2 package infers exact amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) from high-throughput amplicon sequencing data, replacing the coarser and less accurate OTU clustering approach. The dada2 pipeline takes as input demultiplexed fastq files, and outputs the sequence variants and their sample-wise abundances after removing substitution and chimera errors. Taxonomic classification is available via a native implementation of the RDP naive Bayesian classifier, and species-level assignment to 16S rRNA gene fragments by exact matching.

This is a package for multivariate data analysis and graphical display of microarray data. Functions are included for supervised dimension reduction (between group analysis) and joint dimension reduction of two datasets (coinertia analysis).

BiocSet displays different biological sets in a triple tibble format. These three tibbles are element, set, and elementset. The user has the ability to activate one of these three tibbles to perform common functions from the dplyr package. Mapping functionality and accessing web references for elements/sets are also available in BiocSet.

This package provides tools for the computationally efficient analysis of quantitative trait loci (QTL) data, including eQTL, mQTL, dsQTL, etc. The software in this package aims to support refinements and functional interpretation of members of a collection of association statistics on a family of feature/genome hypotheses.

This package provides tools to display a rectangular heatmap (intensity plot) of a data matrix. By default, both samples (columns) and features (row) of the matrix are sorted according to a hierarchical clustering, and the corresponding dendrogram is plotted. Optionally, panels with additional information about samples and features can be added to the plot.
