Implements R bindings to C++ code for analyzing single-cell (expression) data, mostly from various libscran libraries. Each function performs an individual step in the single-cell analysis workflow, ranging from quality control to clustering and marker detection. Additional wrappers are provided for easy construction of end-to-end workflows involving Bioconductor objects like SingleCellExperiments.

NormalyzerDE provides screening of normalization methods for LC-MS based expression data. It calculates a range of normalized matrices using both existing approaches and a novel time-segmented approach, calculates performance measures and generates an evaluation report. Furthermore, it provides an easy utility for Limma- or ANOVA- based differential expression analysis.

We propose an Asymmetric Within-Sample Transformation (AWST) to regularize RNA-seq read counts and reduce the effect of noise on the classification of samples. AWST comprises two main steps: standardization and smoothing. These steps transform gene expression data to reduce the noise of the lowly expressed features, which suffer from background effects and low signal-to-noise ratio, and the influence of the highly expressed features, which may be the result of amplification bias and other experimental artifacts.

Modified quantile normalization for omics or other matrix-like data distorted in location and scale.
