A collection of tools for doing various analyses of multi-state QTL data, with a focus on visualization and interpretation. The package 'multistateQTL' contains functions which can remove or impute missing data, identify significant associations, as well as categorise features into global, multi-state or unique. The analysis results are stored in a 'QTLExperiment' object, which is based on the 'SummarisedExperiment' framework.

Implements exact and approximate methods for singular value decomposition and principal components analysis, in a framework that allows them to be easily switched within Bioconductor packages or workflows. Where possible, parallelization is achieved using the BiocParallel framework.

The GENESIS package provides methodology for estimating, inferring, and accounting for population and pedigree structure in genetic analyses. The current implementation provides functions to perform PC-AiR (Conomos et al., 2015, Gen Epi) and PC-Relate (Conomos et al., 2016, AJHG). PC-AiR performs a Principal Components Analysis on genome-wide SNP data for the detection of population structure in a sample that may contain known or cryptic relatedness. Unlike standard PCA, PC-AiR accounts for relatedness in the sample to provide accurate ancestry inference that is not confounded by family structure. PC-Relate uses ancestry representative principal components to adjust for population structure/ancestry and accurately estimate measures of recent genetic relatedness such as kinship coefficients, IBD sharing probabilities, and inbreeding coefficients. Additionally, functions are provided to perform efficient variance component estimation and mixed model association testing for both quantitative and binary phenotypes.

scider is an user-friendly R package providing functions to model the global density of cells in a slide of spatial transcriptomics data. All functions in the package are built based on the SpatialExperiment object, allowing integration into various spatial transcriptomics-related packages from Bioconductor. After modelling density, the package allows for several downstream analysis, including colocalization analysis, boundary detection analysis and differential density analysis.

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.

Calculate distances, build phylogenetic trees or perform hierarchical clustering between the samples of a VCF or FASTA file. Functions are implemented in Java-11 and called via rJava. Parallel implementation that operates directly on the VCF or FASTA file for fast execution.

The package imports the result of tRNAscan-SE as a GRanges object.

TOP constructs a transferable model across gene expression platforms for prospective experiments. Such a transferable model can be trained to make predictions on independent validation data with an accuracy that is similar to a re-substituted model. The TOP procedure also has the flexibility to be adapted to suit the most common clinical response variables, including linear response, binomial and Cox PH models.

A novel framework to correct for batch effects prior to any downstream analysis in microbiome data based on Projection to Latent Structures Discriminant Analysis. The main method is named “PLSDA-batch”. It first estimates treatment and batch variation with latent components, then subtracts batch-associated components from the data whilst preserving biological variation of interest. PLSDA-batch is highly suitable for microbiome data as it is non-parametric, multivariate and allows for ordination and data visualisation. Combined with centered log-ratio transformation for addressing uneven library sizes and compositional structure, PLSDA-batch addresses all characteristics of microbiome data that existing correction methods have ignored so far. Two other variants are proposed for 1/ unbalanced batch x treatment designs that are commonly encountered in studies with small sample sizes, and for 2/ selection of discriminative variables amongst treatment groups to avoid overfitting in classification problems. These two variants have widened the scope of applicability of PLSDA-batch to different data settings.

Implements a variety of methods for combining p-values in differential analyses of genome-scale datasets. Functions can combine p-values across different tests in the same analysis (e.g., genomic windows in ChIP-seq, exons in RNA-seq) or for corresponding tests across separate analyses (e.g., replicated comparisons, effect of different treatment conditions). Support is provided for handling log-transformed input p-values, missing values and weighting where appropriate.

Drop-in replacement for BiocNeighbors::findKNN using the jvecfor Java library, which builds on the jvector library to leverage the Java Vector API for portable SIMD acceleration across AVX2, AVX-512, and ARM NEON hardware. jvecfor/jvector implements HNSW-DiskANN approximate search and VP-tree exact search. The package achieves approximately 2x speedup over Annoy-based search at n >= 50K cells while returning output structurally identical to BiocNeighbors, making it suitable for seamless integration into existing Bioconductor single-cell workflows. Convenience wrappers delegate shared nearest-neighbor (SNN) and k-nearest-neighbor (KNN) graph construction to the bluster package.

GEOexplorer is a webserver and R/Bioconductor package and web application that enables users to perform gene expression analysis. The development of GEOexplorer was made possible because of the excellent code provided by GEO2R (https: //www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/geo2r/).

An extensive set of data (pre-)processing and analysis methods and tools for metabolomics and other omics, with a strong emphasis on statistics and machine learning. This toolbox allows the user to build extensive and standardised workflows for data analysis. The methods and tools have been implemented using class-based templates provided by the struct (Statistics in R Using Class-based Templates) package. The toolbox includes pre-processing methods (e.g. signal drift and batch correction, normalisation, missing value imputation and scaling), univariate (e.g. ttest, various forms of ANOVA, Kruskal–Wallis test and more) and multivariate statistical methods (e.g. PCA and PLS, including cross-validation and permutation testing) as well as machine learning methods (e.g. Support Vector Machines). Ontology terms have been integrated to provide standardised definitions for the different methods, inputs and outputs.

This package primarily identifies variants in mitochondrial genomes from BAM alignment files. It filters these variants to remove RNA editing events then estimates their evolutionary relationship (i.e. their phylogenetic tree) and groups single cells into clones. It also visualizes the mutations and providing additional genomic context.

IsoBayes is a Bayesian method to perform inference on single protein isoforms. Our approach infers the presence/absence of protein isoforms, and also estimates their abundance; additionally, it provides a measure of the uncertainty of these estimates, via: i) the posterior probability that a protein isoform is present in the sample; ii) a posterior credible interval of its abundance. IsoBayes inputs liquid cromatography mass spectrometry (MS) data, and can work with both PSM counts, and intensities. When available, trascript isoform abundances (i.e., TPMs) are also incorporated: TPMs are used to formulate an informative prior for the respective protein isoform relative abundance. We further identify isoforms where the relative abundance of proteins and transcripts significantly differ. We use a two-layer latent variable approach to model two sources of uncertainty typical of MS data: i) peptides may be erroneously detected (even when absent); ii) many peptides are compatible with multiple protein isoforms. In the first layer, we sample the presence/absence of each peptide based on its estimated probability of being mistakenly detected, also known as PEP (i.e., posterior error probability). In the second layer, for peptides that were estimated as being present, we allocate their abundance across the protein isoforms they map to. These two steps allow us to recover the presence and abundance of each protein isoform.

Feature rankings can be distorted by a single case in the context of high-dimensional data. The cases exerts abnormal influence on feature rankings are called influential points (IPs). The package aims at detecting IPs based on case deletion and quantifies their effects by measuring the rank changes (DOI:10.48550/arXiv.2303.10516). The package applies a novel rank comparing measure using the adaptive weights that stress the top-ranked important features and adjust the weights to ranking properties.

This package runs the GADGETS method to identify epistatic effects in nuclear family studies. It also provides functions for permutation-based inference and graphical visualization of the results.
