Find open-source science resources

Tools for parsing Illumina's microarray output files, including IDAT.

FHIR R4 bundles in JSON format are derived from https://synthea.mitre.org/downloads. Transformation inspired by a kaggle notebook published by Dr Alexander Scarlat, https://www.kaggle.com/code/drscarlat/fhir-starter-parse-healthcare-bundles-into-tables. This is a very limited illustration of some basic parsing and reorganization processes. Additional tooling will be required to move beyond the Synthea data illustrations.

VCFArray extends the DelayedArray to represent VCF data entries as array-like objects with on-disk / remote VCF file as backend. Data entries from VCF files, including info fields, FORMAT fields, and the fixed columns (REF, ALT, QUAL, FILTER) could be converted into VCFArray instances with different dimensions.

structured corruption of cel file data to demonstrate QA effectiveness

This package provides a client for the Bioconductor AnnotationHub web resource. The AnnotationHub web resource provides a central location where genomic files (e.g., VCF, bed, wig) and other resources from standard locations (e.g., UCSC, Ensembl) can be discovered. The resource includes metadata about each resource, e.g., a textual description, tags, and date of modification. The client creates and manages a local cache of files retrieved by the user, helping with quick and reproducible access.

AnVILBilling helps monitor AnVIL-related costs in R, using queries to a BigQuery table to which costs are exported daily. Functions are defined to help categorize tasks and associated expenditures, and to visualize and explore expense profiles over time. This package will be expanded to help users estimate costs for specific task sets.

Use this package to create or update AnVIL workspaces from resources such as R / Bioconductor packages. The metadata about the package (e.g., select information from the package DESCRIPTION file and from vignette YAML headings) are used to populate the 'DASHBOARD'. Vignettes are translated to python notebooks ready for evaluation in AnVIL.

This package supports the application of diverse quality metrics to AffyBatch instances, summarizing these metrics via PCA, and then performing parametric outlier detection on the PCs to identify aberrant arrays with a fixed Type I error rate

A rich R interface to Illumina's BaseSpace cloud computing environment, enabling the fast development of data analysis and visualisation tools.

Installs a self-contained conda instance that is managed by the R/Bioconductor installation machinery. This aims to provide a consistent Python environment that can be used reliably by Bioconductor packages. Functions are also provided to enable smooth interoperability of multiple Python environments in a single R session.

Provides a centralized conda installation for use by other Bioconductor packages. If conda is not already available on the system, it is downloaded and installed from the Miniforge project; otherwise, no action is performed. Historically, this package was used to provide a Python installation for basilisk, hence the name.

Functions that are needed by many other packages or which replace R functions.

A BiocBook can be created by authors (e.g. R developers, but also scientists, teachers, communicators, ...) who wish to 1) write (compile a body of biological and/or bioinformatics knowledge), 2) containerize (provide Docker images to reproduce the examples illustrated in the compendium), 3) publish (deploy an online book to disseminate the compendium), and 4) version (automatically generate specific online book versions and Docker images for specific Bioconductor releases).

The package defines many S4 generic functions used in Bioconductor.

This package provides repository information for the appropriate version of Bioconductor.

Infrastructure to support 'views' used to classify Bioconductor packages. 'biocViews' are directed acyclic graphs of terms from a controlled vocabulary. There are three major classifications, corresponding to 'software', 'annotation', and 'experiment data' packages.

The biovizBase package is designed to provide a set of utilities, color schemes and conventions for genomic data. It serves as the base for various high-level packages for biological data visualization. This saves development effort and encourages consistency.

A set of tools to forge BSgenome data packages. Supersedes the old seed-based tools from the BSgenome software package. This package allows the user to create a BSgenome data package in one function call, simplifying the old seed-based process.

Microarray analysis methods that use BufferedMatrix objects

A general framework for the simulation of ChIP-seq data. Although currently focused on nucleosome positioning the package is designed to support different types of experiments.

CIGAR stands for Concise Idiosyncratic Gapped Alignment Report. CIGAR strings are found in the BAM files produced by most aligners and in the AIRR-formatted output produced by IgBLAST. The cigarillo package provides functions to parse and inspect CIGAR strings, trim them, turn them into ranges of positions relative to the "query space" or "reference space", and project positions or sequences from one space to the other. Note that these operations are low-level operations that the user rarely needs to perform directly. More typically, they are performed behind the scene by higher-level functionality implemented in other packages like Bioconductor packages GenomicAlignments and igblastr.

Define coerce methods for microarray data objects.

Wrapping an array-like object (typically an on-disk object) in a DelayedArray object allows one to perform common array operations on it without loading the object in memory. In order to reduce memory usage and optimize performance, operations on the object are either delayed or executed using a block processing mechanism. Note that this also works on in-memory array-like objects like DataFrame objects (typically with Rle columns), Matrix objects, ordinary arrays and, data frames.

doseR package is a next generation sequencing package for sex chromosome dosage compensation which can be applied broadly to detect shifts in gene expression among an arbitrary number of pre-defined groups of loci. doseR is a differential gene expression package for count data, that detects directional shifts in expression for multiple, specific subsets of genes, broad utility in systems biology research. doseR has been prepared to manage the nature of the data and the desired set of inferences. doseR uses S4 classes to store count data from sequencing experiment. It contains functions to normalize and filter count data, as well as to plot and calculate statistics of count data. It contains a framework for linear modeling of count data. The package has been tested using real and simulated data.

Serve data from Bioconductor Objects through a WebSocket connection.

This package provides objects to manage WebSocket connections to epiviz apps. Other epivizr package use this infrastructure.

Functions to add metadata to ExperimentHub db and resource files to AWS S3 buckets.

Experiment objects such as the SummarizedExperiment or SingleCellExperiment are data containers for one or more matrix-like assays along with the associated row and column data. Often only a subset of the original data is needed for down-stream analysis. For example, filtering out poor quality samples will require excluding some columns before analysis. The ExperimentSubset object is a container to efficiently manage different subsets of the same data without having to make separate objects for each new subset.

Provides efficient containers for storing and manipulating short genomic alignments (typically obtained by aligning short reads to a reference genome). This includes read counting, computing the coverage, junction detection, and working with the nucleotide content of the alignments.

Produce highly customizable publication quality graphics for genomic data primarily at the cohort level.

The NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) represents the largest public repository of microarray data. However, finding data of interest can be challenging using current tools. GEOmetadb is an attempt to make access to the metadata associated with samples, platforms, and datasets much more feasible. This is accomplished by parsing all the NCBI GEO metadata into a SQLite database that can be stored and queried locally. GEOmetadb is simply a thin wrapper around the SQLite database along with associated documentation. Finally, the SQLite database is updated regularly as new data is added to GEO and can be downloaded at will for the most up-to-date metadata. GEOmetadb paper: http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/short/24/23/2798 .

The ggbio package extends and specializes the grammar of graphics for biological data. The graphics are designed to answer common scientific questions, in particular those often asked of high throughput genomics data. All core Bioconductor data structures are supported, where appropriate. The package supports detailed views of particular genomic regions, as well as genome-wide overviews. Supported overviews include ideograms and grand linear views. High-level plots include sequence fragment length, edge-linked interval to data view, mismatch pileup, and several splicing summaries.

The main function in the h5mread package is h5mread(), which allows reading arbitrary data from an HDF5 dataset into R, similarly to what the h5read() function from the rhdf5 package does. In the case of h5mread(), the implementation has been optimized to make it as fast and memory-efficient as possible.

The HDF5Array package is an HDF5 backend for DelayedArray objects. It implements the HDF5Array, H5SparseMatrix, H5ADMatrix, and TENxMatrix classes, 4 convenient and memory-efficient array-like containers for representing and manipulating either: (1) a conventional (a.k.a. dense) HDF5 dataset, (2) an HDF5 sparse matrix (stored in CSR/CSC/Yale format), (3) the central matrix of an h5ad file (or any matrix in the /layers group), or (4) a 10x Genomics sparse matrix. All these containers are DelayedArray extensions and thus support all operations (delayed or block-processed) supported by DelayedArray objects.

Many functions for computing the NPMLE for censored and truncated data.

Provides the GInteractions, InteractionSet and ContactMatrix objects and associated methods for storing and manipulating genomic interaction data from Hi-C and ChIA-PET experiments.

Provides efficient low-level and highly reusable S4 classes for storing, manipulating and aggregating over annotated ranges of integers. Implements an algebra of range operations, including efficient algorithms for finding overlaps and nearest neighbors. Defines efficient list-like classes for storing, transforming and aggregating large grouped data, i.e., collections of atomic vectors and DataFrames.

This package was derived from Rsymphony_0.1-17 from CRAN. These packages provide an R interface to SYMPHONY, an open-source linear programming solver written in C++. The main difference between this package and Rsymphony is that it includes the solver source code (SYMPHONY version 5.6), while Rsymphony expects to find header and library files on the users' system. Thus the intention of lpsymphony is to provide an easy to install interface to SYMPHONY. For Windows, precompiled DLLs are included in this package.

Interface to construct LRBase package (LRBase.XXX.eg.db).

S4 generic functions modeled after the 'matrixStats' API for alternative matrix implementations. Packages with alternative matrix implementation can depend on this package and implement the generic functions that are defined here for a useful set of row and column summary statistics. Other package developers can import this package and handle a different matrix implementations without worrying about incompatibilities.

Different data resources for microRNAs and some functions for manipulating them.

Harmonize data management of multiple experimental assays performed on an overlapping set of specimens. It provides a familiar Bioconductor user experience by extending concepts from SummarizedExperiment, supporting an open-ended mix of standard data classes for individual assays, and allowing subsetting by genomic ranges or rownames. Facilities are provided for reshaping data into wide and long formats for adaptability to graphing and downstream analysis.

This package contains class definitions, validity checks, and initialization methods for classes used by the oligo and crlmm packages.

A function to make gene presence/absence calls based on distance from negative strand matching probesets (NSMP) which are derived from Affymetrix annotation. PANP is applied after gene expression values are created, and therefore can be used after any preprocessing method such as MAS5 or GCRMA, or PM-only methods like RMA. NSMP sets have been established for the HGU133A and HGU133-Plus-2.0 chipsets to date.

PhIPData defines an S4 class for phage-immunoprecipitation sequencing (PhIP-seq) experiments. Buliding upon the RangedSummarizedExperiment class, PhIPData enables users to coordinate metadata with experimental data in analyses. Additionally, PhIPData provides specialized methods to subset and identify beads-only samples, subset objects using virus aliases, and use existing peptide libraries to populate object parameters.
