Functional enrichment analysis methods such as gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) have been widely used for analyzing gene expression data. GSEA is a powerful method to infer results of gene expression data at a level of gene sets by calculating enrichment scores for predefined sets of genes. GSEA depends on the availability and accuracy of gene sets. There are overlaps between terms of gene sets or categories because multiple terms may exist for a single biological process, and it can thus lead to redundancy within enriched terms. In other words, the sets of related terms are overlapping. Using deep learning, this pakage is aimed to predict enrichment scores for unique tokens or words from text in names of gene sets to resolve this overlapping set issue. Furthermore, we can coin a new term by combining tokens and find its enrichment score by predicting such a combined tokens.

TTMap is a clustering method that groups together samples with the same deviation in comparison to a control group. It is specially useful when the data is small. It is parameter free.

The package provides S4 classes and methods to filter, summarise and visualise genetic variation data stored in VCF files. In particular, the package extends the FilterRules class (S4Vectors package) to define news classes of filter rules applicable to the various slots of VCF objects. Functionalities are integrated and demonstrated in a Shiny web-application, the Shiny Variant Explorer (tSVE).

UNDO is an R package for unsupervised deconvolution of tumor and stromal mixed expression data. It detects marker genes and deconvolutes the mixing expression data without any prior knowledge.

Uniparental disomy (UPD) is a genetic condition where an individual inherits both copies of a chromosome or part of it from one parent, rather than one copy from each parent. This package contains a HMM for detecting UPDs through HTS (High Throughput Sequencing) data from trio assays. By analyzing the genotypes in the trio, the model infers a hidden state (normal, father isodisomy, mother isodisomy, father heterodisomy and mother heterodisomy).

A fundamental problem in biomedical research is the low number of observations, mostly due to a lack of available biosamples, prohibitive costs, or ethical reasons. By augmenting a few real observations with artificially generated samples, their analysis could lead to more robust and higher reproducible. One possible solution to the problem is the use of generative models, which are statistical models of data that attempt to capture the entire probability distribution from the observations. Using the variational autoencoder (VAE), a well-known deep generative model, this package is aimed to generate samples with gene expression data, especially for single-cell RNA-seq data. Furthermore, the VAE can use conditioning to produce specific cell types or subpopulations. The conditional VAE (CVAE) allows us to create targeted samples rather than completely random ones.

The main objective of ViSEAGO package is to carry out a data mining of biological functions and establish links between genes involved in the study. We developed ViSEAGO in R to facilitate functional Gene Ontology (GO) analysis of complex experimental design with multiple comparisons of interest. It allows to study large-scale datasets together and visualize GO profiles to capture biological knowledge. The acronym stands for three major concepts of the analysis: Visualization, Semantic similarity and Enrichment Analysis of Gene Ontology. It provides access to the last current GO annotations, which are retrieved from one of NCBI EntrezGene, Ensembl or Uniprot databases for several species. Using available R packages and novel developments, ViSEAGO extends classical functional GO analysis to focus on functional coherence by aggregating closely related biological themes while studying multiple datasets at once. It provides both a synthetic and detailed view using interactive functionalities respecting the GO graph structure and ensuring functional coherence supplied by semantic similarity. ViSEAGO has been successfully applied on several datasets from different species with a variety of biological questions. Results can be easily shared between bioinformaticians and biologists, enhancing reporting capabilities while maintaining reproducibility.

The package allows users to readily import spatial data obtained from either the 10X website or from the Space Ranger pipeline. Supported formats include tar.gz, h5, and mtx files. Multiple files can be imported at once with *List type of functions. The package represents data mainly as SpatialExperiment objects.

This package provides helper functions for working with multiple Visium capture areas that overlap each other. This package was developed along with the companion example use case data available from https://github.com/LieberInstitute/visiumStitched_brain. visiumStitched prepares SpaceRanger (10x Genomics) output files so you can stitch the images from groups of capture areas together with Fiji. Then visiumStitched builds a SpatialExperiment object with the stitched data and makes an artificial hexagonal grid enabling the seamless use of spatial clustering methods that rely on such grid to identify neighboring spots, such as PRECAST and BayesSpace. The SpatialExperiment objects created by visiumStitched are compatible with spatialLIBD, which can be used to build interactive websites for stitched SpatialExperiment objects. visiumStitched also enables casting SpatialExperiment objects as Seurat objects.

This package enables the interpretation and analysis of results from a gene set enrichment analysis using network-based and text-mining approaches. Most enrichment analyses result in large lists of significant gene sets that are difficult to interpret. Tools in this package help build a similarity-based network of significant gene sets from a gene set enrichment analysis that can then be investigated for their biological function using text-mining approaches.

Data type and tools for working with matrices having precision weights and missing data. This package provides a common representation and tools that can be used with many types of high-throughput data.

It provides basic functions to perform unsupervised deconvolution on mixture expression profiles by Convex Analysis of Mixtures (CAM) and some auxiliary functions to help understand the subpopulation-specific results. It also implements functions to perform supervised deconvolution based on prior knowledge of molecular markers, S matrix or A matrix. Combining molecular markers from CAM and from prior knowledge can achieve semi-supervised deconvolution of mixtures.
