CENTIPEDE applies a hierarchical Bayesian mixture model to infer regions of the genome that are bound by particular transcription factors. It starts by identifying a set of candidate binding sites, and then aims to classify the sites according to whether each site is bound or not bound by a transcription factor. CENTIPEDE is an unsupervised learning algorithm that discriminates between two different types of motif instances using as much relevant information as possible.

In putative Transcription Factor Binding Sites (TFBSs) identification from sequence/alignments, we are interested in the significance of certain match scores. TFMPvalue provides the accurate calculation of a p-value with a score threshold for position weight matrices, or the score with a given p-value. It is an interface to code originally made available by Helene Touzet and Jean-Stephane Varre, 2007, Algorithms Mol Biol:2, 15. Touzet and Varre (2007).

Genomic analysis of model organisms often requires the use of databases based on human data or making comparisons to patient-derived resources. This requires converting genes between human and non-human analogues. The babelgene R package provides predicted gene orthologs/homologs for frequently studied model organisms in an R-friendly tidy/long format. The package integrates orthology assertion predictions sourced from multiple databases as compiled by the HGNC Comparison of Orthology Predictions (HCOP).

This package provides tools to compute marginal effects from statistical models and return the result as tidy data frames. These data frames are ready to use with the ggplot2 package.

There is a generic plot() method to plot the results using ggplot2.

This improves accessibility to the comprehensive range of object-specific analytical and tree-visualization functions found across a wide array of bioinformatic R packages.

In repeated measures studies with extreme large or small values it is common that the subjects measurements on average are closer to the mean of the basic population. Interpreting possible changes in the mean in such situations can lead to biased results since the values were not randomly selected, they come from truncated sampling. This method allows to estimate the range of means where treatment effects are likely to occur when regression toward the mean is present. Ostermann, T., Willich, Stefan N. & Luedtke, Rainer. (2008).
