Matches cases to controls based on genotype principal components (PC). In order to produce better results, matches are based on the weighted distance of PCs where the weights are equal to the % variance explained by that PC. A weighted Mahalanobis distance metric (Kidd et al. (1987) <DOI:10.1016/0031-3203(87)90066-5>) is used to determine matches.

The ACE file format is used in genomics to store contigs from sequencing machines. This tools converts it into FASTQ format. Both formats contain the sequence characters and their corresponding quality information. Unlike the FASTQ file, the ACE file stores the quality values numerically. The conversion algorithm uses the standard Sanger formula. The package facilitates insertion into pipelines, and content inspection.

Pathifier is an algorithm that infers pathway deregulation scores for each tumor sample on the basis of expression data. This score is determined, in a context-specific manner, for every particular dataset and type of cancer that is being investigated. The algorithm transforms gene-level information into pathway-level information, generating a compact and biologically relevant representation of each sample.
