cfDNA fragments carry important features for building cancer sample classification ML models, such as fragment size, and fragment end motif etc. Analyzing and visualizing fragment size metrics, as well as other biological features in a curated, standardized, scalable, well-documented, and reproducible way might be time intensive. This package intends to resolve these problems and simplify the process. It offers two sets of functions for cfDNA feature characterization and visualization.

The package is user friendly interface based on the cgdsr and other modeling packages to explore, compare, and analyse all available Cancer Data (Clinical data, Gene Mutation, Gene Methylation, Gene Expression, Protein Phosphorylation, Copy Number Alteration) hosted by the Computational Biology Center at Memorial-Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC).

Infer alternative splicing from paired-end RNA-seq data. The model is based on counting paths across exons, rather than pairwise exon connections, and estimates the fragment size and start distributions non-parametrically, which improves estimation precision.

CluMSID is a tool that aids the identification of features in untargeted LC-MS/MS analysis by the use of MS2 spectra similarity and unsupervised statistical methods. It offers functions for a complete and customisable workflow from raw data to visualisations and is interfaceable with the xmcs family of preprocessing packages.

This package provides a collection of software tools for dealing with co-citation data.

cosmiq is a tool for the preprocessing of liquid- or gas - chromatography mass spectrometry (LCMS/GCMS) data with a focus on metabolomics or lipidomics applications. To improve the detection of low abundant signals, cosmiq generates master maps of the mZ/RT space from all acquired runs before a peak detection algorithm is applied. The result is a more robust identification and quantification of low-intensity MS signals compared to conventional approaches where peak picking is performed in each LCMS/GCMS file separately. The cosmiq package builds on the xcmsSet object structure and can be therefore integrated well with the package xcms as an alternative preprocessing step.

It fits correlation motif model to multiple studies to detect study specific differential expression patterns.

Dropout events make the lowly expressed genes indistinguishable from true zero expression and different than the low expression present in cells of the same type. This issue makes any subsequent downstream analysis difficult. ccImpute is an imputation algorithm that uses cell similarity established by consensus clustering to impute the most probable dropout events in the scRNA-seq datasets. ccImpute demonstrated performance which exceeds the performance of existing imputation approaches while introducing the least amount of new noise as measured by clustering performance characteristics on datasets with known cell identities.

ClonalSim generates realistic mutational profiles of tumor samples with hierarchical clonal structure. It simulates founder, shared, and private mutations with biologically realistic noise models including intra-tumor heterogeneity (Beta distribution) and technical sequencing noise (negative binomial depth variation, binomial read sampling, base errors). The package is designed for benchmarking variant callers, testing clonal deconvolution algorithms, and teaching tumor heterogeneity concepts.

Package for modified nearest-neighbor classification based on calculation of a similarity threshold distinguishing within-group from between-group comparisons.

Logic based ordinary differential equation (ODE) add-on to CellNOptR.

This R package makes use of the exhaustive RESTful Web service API that has been implemented for the Cellabase database. It enable researchers to query and obtain a wealth of biological information from a single database saving a lot of time. Another benefit is that researchers can easily make queries about different biological topics and link all this information together as all information is integrated.

consICA implements a data-driven deconvolution method – consensus independent component analysis (ICA) to decompose heterogeneous omics data and extract features suitable for patient diagnostics and prognostics. The method separates biologically relevant transcriptional signals from technical effects and provides information about the cellular composition and biological processes. The implementation of parallel computing in the package ensures efficient analysis of modern multicore systems.

This package aims to integrate GWAS-derived SNPs and coexpression networks to mine candidate genes associated with a particular phenotype. For that, users must define a set of guide genes, which are known genes involved in the studied phenotype. Additionally, the mined candidates can be given a score that favor candidates that are hubs and/or transcription factors. The scores can then be used to rank and select the top n most promising genes for downstream experiments.

Gene set analysis methods exist to combine SNP-level association p-values into gene sets, calculating a single association p-value for each gene set. This package implements two such methods that require only the calculated SNP p-values, the gene set(s) of interest, and a correlation matrix (if desired). One method (GLOSSI) requires independent SNPs and the other (VEGAS) can take into account correlation (LD) among the SNPs. Built-in plotting functions are available to help users visualize results.

CircSeqAlignTk is a toolkit for the analysis of RNA-Seq data derived from circular genome sequences, with a primary focus on viroids, circular RNAs typically consisting of a few hundred nucleotides. The toolkit supports an end-to-end analysis pipeline, from alignment to visualization.

This package is an extension to CellNOptR. It contains additional functionality needed to simulate and train a prior knowledge network to experimental data using constrained fuzzy logic (cFL, rather than Boolean logic as is the case in CellNOptR). Additionally, this package will contain functions to use for the compilation of multiple optimization results (either Boolean or cFL).

Coralysis is an R package featuring a multi-level integration algorithm for sensitive integration, reference-mapping, and cell-state identification in single-cell data. The multi-level integration algorithm is inspired by the process of assembling a puzzle - where one begins by grouping pieces based on low-to high-level features, such as color and shading, before looking into shape and patterns. This approach progressively blends the batch effects and separates cell types across multiple rounds of divisive clustering.

The package encompasses functions to find potential guide RNAs for the CRISPR-based genome-editing systems including the Base Editors and the Prime Editors when supplied with target sequences as input. Users have the flexibility to filter resulting guide RNAs based on parameters such as the absence of restriction enzyme cut sites or the lack of paired guide RNAs. The package also facilitates genome-wide exploration for off-targets, offering features to score and rank off-targets, retrieve flanking sequences, and indicate whether the hits are located within exon regions. All detected guide RNAs are annotated with the cumulative scores of the top5 and topN off-targets together with the detailed information such as mismatch sites and restrictuion enzyme cut sites. The package also outputs INDELs and their frequencies for Cas9 targeted sites.

High-throughput cell imaging facilitates the analysis of cell migration across many wells treated under different biological conditions. These workflows generate considerable technical noise and biological variability, and therefore technical and biological replicates are necessary, leading to large, hierarchically structured datasets, i.e., cells are nested within technical replicates that are nested within biological replicates. Current statistical analyses of such data usually ignore the hierarchical structure of the data and fail to explicitly quantify uncertainty arising from technical or biological variability. To address this gap, we present cellmig, an R package implementing Bayesian hierarchical models for migration analysis. cellmig quantifies condition- specific velocity changes (e.g., drug effects) while modeling nested data structures and technical artifacts. It further enables synthetic data generation for experimental design optimization.

This package provides a developed and benchmarked reproducible machine learning framework for microbiome-based colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. By systematically evaluating normalization strategies, taxonomic resolutions, and class imbalance handling. This R package allows users to apply the full pipeline or selectively run specific components depending on their analytical needs. It establishes a scalable foundation for developing interpretable microbiome-based screening tools to support early CRC detection. This approach could be easily implemented in a national screening programme, to improve early detection rates for this disease.
