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 exposes an annotation database generated from Ensembl.

This package implements a variety of methods for batch correction of single-cell (RNA sequencing) data. This includes methods based on detecting mutually nearest neighbors, as well as several efficient variants of linear regression of the log-expression values. Functions are also provided to perform global rescaling to remove differences in depth between batches, and to perform a principal components analysis that is robust to differences in the numbers of cells across batches.

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).

The mia package implements tools for microbiome analysis based on the SummarizedExperiment, SingleCellExperiment and TreeSummarizedExperiment infrastructure. Data wrangling and analysis in the context of taxonomic data is the main scope. Additional functions for common task are implemented such as community indices calculation and summarization.

This package implements algorithms for calculating microarray enrichment (ACME), and it is a set of tools for analysing tiling array of combined chromatin immunoprecipitation with DNA microarray (ChIP/chip), DNAse hypersensitivity, or other experiments that result in regions of the genome showing enrichment. It does not rely on a specific array technology (although the array should be a tiling array), is very general (can be applied in experiments resulting in regions of enrichment), and is very insensitive to array noise or normalization methods. It is also very fast and can be applied on whole-genome tiling array experiments quite easily with enough memory.

Phyloseq provides a set of classes and tools to facilitate the import, storage, analysis, and graphical display of microbiome census data.

This package provides genome wide annotations for Zebrafish, primarily based on mapping using Entrez Gene identifiers.

The package provides utility functions related to package development. These include functions that replace slots, and selectors for show methods. It aims to coalesce the various helper functions often re-used throughout the Bioconductor ecosystem.

This package provides functions for annotation-agnostic differential expression analysis of RNA-seq data. Two implementations of the DER Finder approach are included in this package:

1. single base-level F-statistics and

2. DER identification at the expressed regions-level.

The DER Finder approach can also be used to identify differentially bounded ChIP-seq peaks.

This package provides tools for calculating the Reproducibility-Optimized Test Statistic (ROTS) for differential testing in omics data.

This package provides a high-level R interface to CoreArray Genomic Data Structure (GDS) data files, which are portable across platforms with hierarchical structure to store multiple scalable array-oriented data sets with metadata information. It is suited for large-scale datasets, especially for data which are much larger than the available random-access memory. The gdsfmt package offers efficient operations specifically designed for integers of less than 8 bits, since a diploid genotype, like single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), usually occupies fewer bits than a byte. Data compression and decompression are available with relatively efficient random access. It is also allowed to read a GDS file in parallel with multiple R processes supported by the package parallel.

This package provides uniform interfaces to machine learning code for data in R and Bioconductor containers.

This package provides methods for working with Illumina arrays using the gdsfmt package.

This package offers functionality for taking methtuple or Bismark outputs to calculate ASM scores and compute DAMEs regions. It also offers nice visualization of methyl-circle plots.

BAnOCC is a package designed for compositional data, where each sample sums to one. It infers the approximate covariance of the unconstrained data using a Bayesian model coded with rstan. It provides as output the stanfit object as well as posterior median and credible interval estimates for each correlation element.

InferCNV is used to explore tumor single cell RNA-Seq data to identify evidence for somatic large-scale chromosomal copy number alterations, such as gains or deletions of entire chromosomes or large segments of chromosomes. This is done by exploring expression intensity of genes across positions of a tumor genome in comparison to a set of reference "normal" cells. A heatmap is generated illustrating the relative expression intensities across each chromosome, and it often becomes readily apparent as to which regions of the tumor genome are over-abundant or less-abundant as compared to that of normal cells.

Bacon can be used to remove inflation and bias often observed in epigenome- and transcriptome-wide association studies. To this end bacon constructs an empirical null distribution using a Gibbs Sampling algorithm by fitting a three-component normal mixture on z-scores.

This package provides a Poisson mixture model is implemented to cluster genes from high-throughput transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) data. Parameter estimation is performed using either the EM or CEM algorithm, and the slope heuristics are used for model selection (i.e., to choose the number of clusters).

FlowSOM offers visualization options for cytometry data, by using self-organizing map clustering and minimal spanning trees.

The package r-alevinqc generates quality control reports summarizing the output from an alevin run. The reports can be generated as HTML or PDF files, or as Shiny applications.

This package provides a set of low-level utilities to retrieve data from the UCSC Genome Browser. Most functions in the package access the data via the UCSC REST API but some of them query the UCSC MySQL server directly. Note that the primary purpose of the package is to support higher-level functionalities implemented in downstream packages like GenomeInfoDb or txdbmaker.

This package implements the mini-batch k-means algorithm for large datasets, including support for on-disk data representation.

This package provides tools for parsing Illumina's microarray output files, including IDAT.
