Comprehensive R package for differential composition and variability analysis in single-cell RNA sequencing, CyTOF, and microbiome data. Provides robust Bayesian modeling with outlier detection, random effects, and advanced statistical methods for cell type proportion analysis. Features include probabilistic outlier identification, mixed-effect modeling, differential variability testing, and comprehensive visualization tools. Perfect for cancer research, immunology, developmental biology, and single-cell genomics applications.

Robust normalization and difference calling procedures for ChIP-seq and alike data. Read counts are modeled jointly as a binomial mixture model with a user-specified number of components. A fitted background estimate accounts for the effect of enrichment in certain regions and, therefore, represents an appropriate null hypothesis. This robust background is used to identify significantly enriched or depleted regions.

The Bandle package enables the analysis and visualisation of differential localisation experiments using mass-spectrometry data. Experimental methods supported include dynamic LOPIT-DC, hyperLOPIT, Dynamic Organellar Maps, Dynamic PCP. It provides Bioconductor infrastructure to analyse these data.

Quantification and differential analysis of mass-spectrometry proteomics data, with probabilistic recovery of information from missing values. Avoids the need for imputation. Estimates the detection probability curve (DPC), which relates the probability of successful detection to the underlying log-intensity of each precursor ion, and uses it to incorporate missing values into protein quantification and into subsequent differential expression analyses. The package produces objects suitable for downstream analysis in limma. The package accepts precursor (or peptide) intensities including missing values and produces complete protein quantifications without the need for imputation. The uncertainty of the protein quantifications is propagated through to the limma analyses using variance modeling and precision weights, ensuring accurate error rate control. The analysis pipeline can alternatively work with PTM or protein level data. The package name "limpa" is an acronym for "Linear Models for Proteomics Data".

This package integrates colocalization probabilities from colocalization analysis with transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) scan summary statistics to implicate genes that may be biologically relevant to a complex trait. The probabilistic framework implemented in this package constrains the TWAS scan z-score-based likelihood using a gene-level colocalization probability. Given gene set annotations, this package can estimate gene set enrichment using posterior probabilities from the TWAS-colocalization integration step.

Provides Bayesian PCA, Probabilistic PCA, Nipals PCA, Inverse Non-Linear PCA and the conventional SVD PCA. A cluster based method for missing value estimation is included for comparison. BPCA, PPCA and NipalsPCA may be used to perform PCA on incomplete data as well as for accurate missing value estimation. A set of methods for printing and plotting the results is also provided. All PCA methods make use of the same data structure (pcaRes) to provide a common interface to the PCA results. Initiated at the Max-Planck Institute for Molecular Plant Physiology, Golm, Germany.
