The parody package provides routines for univariate and multivariate outlier detection with a focus on parametric methods, but support for some methods based on resistant statistics.

This package provides processed 22 samples from BrainSpan keeping only the information for chromosome 21. Data is stored in the BigWig format and is used for examples in other packages.

This package provides the output of running various transcript abundance quantifiers on a set of 6 RNA-seq samples from the GEUVADIS project. The quantifiers were Cufflinks, RSEM, kallisto, Salmon and Sailfish. Alevin example output is also included.

This is a package for normalization, testing for differential variability and differential methylation and gene set testing for data from Illumina's Infinium HumanMethylation arrays. The normalization procedure is subset-quantile within-array normalization (SWAN), which allows Infinium I and II type probes on a single array to be normalized together. The test for differential variability is based on an empirical Bayes version of Levene's test. Differential methylation testing is performed using RUV, which can adjust for systematic errors of unknown origin in high-dimensional data by using negative control probes. Gene ontology analysis is performed by taking into account the number of probes per gene on the array, as well as taking into account multi-gene associated probes.

This package provides functions for inferring continuous, branching lineage structures in low-dimensional data. Slingshot was designed to model developmental trajectories in single-cell RNA sequencing data and serve as a component in an analysis pipeline after dimensionality reduction and clustering. It is flexible enough to handle arbitrarily many branching events and allows for the incorporation of prior knowledge through supervised graph construction.

This package is an R implementation for fully unsupervised deconvolution of complex tissues. DebCAM provides basic functions to perform unsupervised deconvolution on mixture expression profiles by CAM and some auxiliary functions to help understand the subpopulation- specific results. It also implements functions to perform supervised deconvolution based on prior knowledge of molecular markers, S matrix or A matrix. Combining molecular markers from CAM and from prior knowledge can achieve semi-supervised deconvolution of mixtures.

M3C is a consensus clustering algorithm that uses a Monte Carlo simulation to eliminate overestimation of K and can reject the null hypothesis K=1.

The NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) is a public repository of microarray data. Given the rich and varied nature of this resource, it is only natural to want to apply BioConductor tools to these data. GEOquery is the bridge between GEO and BioConductor.

This package enables you to read and manipulate genome intervals and signals. It provides functionality similar to command-line tool suites within R, enabling interactive analysis and visualization of genome-scale data.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) methods are typically unable to quantify the expression levels of all genes in a cell, creating a need for the computational prediction of missing values (dropout imputation). Most existing dropout imputation methods are limited in the sense that they exclusively use the scRNA-seq dataset at hand and do not exploit external gene-gene relationship information. The ADImpute package proposes two methods to address this issue:

1. a gene regulatory network-based approach using gene-gene relationships learnt from external data;

2. a baseline approach corresponding to a sample-wide average.

ADImpute implements these novel methods and also combines them with existing imputation methods like DrImpute and SAVER. ADImpute can learn the best performing method per gene and combine the results from different methods into an ensemble.

The motifStack package is designed for graphic representation of multiple motifs with different similarity scores. It works with both DNA/RNA sequence motifs and amino acid sequence motifs. In addition, it provides the flexibility for users to customize the graphic parameters such as the font type and symbol colors.

This package provides functions to plot data associated with arbitrary genomic intervals along chromosomal ideogram.

This is a package to perform the Adaptive Robust Regression method (ARRm) for the normalization of methylation data from the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation 450k assay.

This package provides a consistent C++ class interface for a variety of commonly used matrix types, including sparse and HDF5-backed matrices.

The S4Arrays package defines the Array virtual class to be extended by other S4 classes that wish to implement a container with an array-like semantic. It also provides:

1. low-level functionality meant to help the developer of such container to implement basic operations like display, subsetting, or coercion of their array-like objects to an ordinary matrix or array, and

2. a framework that facilitates block processing of array-like objects (typically on-disk objects).

This is a manifest package for Illumina's EPIC methylation arrays.

BioQC performs quality control of high-throughput expression data based on tissue gene signatures. It can detect tissue heterogeneity in gene expression data. The core algorithm is a Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test that is optimised for high performance.

This package provides a GUI for analysis of Affymetrix microarray gene expression data using the affy and limma packages.

This package provides an alternative interface to Bioconductor annotation resources, in particular the gene identifier mapping functionality of the org packages (e.g., org.Hs.eg.db) and the genome coordinate functionality of the TxDb packages (e.g., TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg38.knownGene).

This package implements the GENIE3 algorithm for inferring gene regulatory networks from expression data.

This package implements an approach for scanning the genome to detect and perform accurate inference on differentially methylated regions from Whole Genome Bisulfite Sequencing data. The method is based on comparing detected regions to a pooled null distribution, that can be implemented even when as few as two samples per population are available. Region-level statistics are obtained by fitting a generalized least squares (GLS) regression model with a nested autoregressive correlated error structure for the effect of interest on transformed methylation proportions.

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.

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.

The canonical way to perform meta-analysis involves using effect sizes. When they are not available this package provides a number of methods for meta-analysis of significance values including the methods of Edgington, Fisher, Stouffer, Tippett, and Wilkinson; a number of data-sets to replicate published results; and a routine for graphical display.
