The CompensAID is an automated quality control tool, which determines for each marker combination in the FCS file, whether there a potential presence of reference errors. Such reference errors, which represent themselves in the form of skewed populations, are detected by integrating the Secondary Stain Index (SSI) score. Marker combinations with an SSI < 1 are flagged by CompensAID.

Determine sample ploidy via flow cytometry histogram analysis. Reads Flow Cytometry Standard (FCS) files via the flowCore bioconductor package, and provides functions for determining the DNA ploidy of samples based on internal standards.

The CytoGLMM R package implements two multiple regression strategies: A bootstrapped generalized linear model (GLM) and a generalized linear mixed model (GLMM). Most current data analysis tools compare expressions across many computationally discovered cell types. CytoGLMM focuses on just one cell type. Our narrower field of application allows us to define a more specific statistical model with easier to control statistical guarantees. As a result, CytoGLMM finds differential proteins in flow and mass cytometry data while reducing biases arising from marker correlations and safeguarding against false discoveries induced by patient heterogeneity.

Identifies maximal differential cell populations in flow cytometry data taking into account dependencies between cell populations; flowGraph calculates and plots SpecEnr abundance scores given cell population cell counts.

An approach to filter out and/or identify phytoplankton cells from all particles measured via flow cytometry pigment and cell complexity information. It does this using a sequence of one-dimensional gates on pre-defined channels measuring certain pigmentation and complexity. The package is especially tuned for cyanobacteria, but will work fine for phytoplankton communities where there is at least one cell characteristic that differentiates every phytoplankton in the community.
