This package provides a set of functions useful in the analysis of 3D genomic interactions. It includes the import of standard HiC data formats into R and HiC normalisation procedures. The main objective of this package is to improve the visualization and quantification of the analysis of HiC contacts through aggregation. The package allows to import 1D genomics data, such as peaks from ATACSeq, ChIPSeq, to create potential couples between features of interest under user-defined parameters such as distance between pairs of features of interest. It allows then the extraction of contact values from the HiC data for these couples and to perform Aggregated Peak Analysis (APA) for visualization, but also to compare normalized contact values between conditions. Overall the package allows to integrate 1D genomics data with 3D genomics data, providing an easy access to HiC contact values.

Capture Hi-C is a set of techniques that enable the detection of genomic interactions involving regions of interest, known as baits.

The package accounts for the specific structure of bait–otherEnd interactions, facilitates integration with other omics datasets, and enables comparison across samples and conditions.

HiCBricks offers user-friendly and efficient solutions for handling large high-resolution Hi-C datasets. The package provides an R/Bioconductor framework with the bricks to build more complex data analysis pipelines and algorithms. HiCBricks already incorporates example algorithms for calling domain boundaries and functions for high quality data visualization.

Systematic 3D interaction calls and differential analysis for Hi-C and HiChIP. The HiC-DC+ (Hi-C/HiChIP direct caller plus) package enables principled statistical analysis of Hi-C and HiChIP data sets – including calling significant interactions within a single experiment and performing differential analysis between conditions given replicate experiments – to facilitate global integrative studies. HiC-DC+ estimates significant interactions in a Hi-C or HiChIP experiment directly from the raw contact matrix for each chromosome up to a specified genomic distance, binned by uniform genomic intervals or restriction enzyme fragments, by training a background model to account for random polymer ligation and systematic sources of read count variation.

Tools to perform hierarchical inference for one or multiple studies / data sets based on high-dimensional multivariate (generalised) linear models. A possible application is to perform hierarchical inference for GWA studies to find significant groups or single SNPs (if the signal is strong) in a data-driven and automated procedure. The method is based on an efficient hierarchical multiple testing correction and controls the FWER. The functions can easily be run in parallel.

Hipathia is a method for the computation of signal transduction along signaling pathways from transcriptomic data. The method is based on an iterative algorithm which is able to compute the signal intensity passing through the nodes of a network by taking into account the level of expression of each gene and the intensity of the signal arriving to it. It also provides a new approach to functional analysis allowing to compute the signal arriving to the functions annotated to each pathway.

For scRNA-seq data, it selects features and clusters the cells simultaneously for single-cell UMI data. It has a novel feature selection method using the zero inflation instead of gene variance, and computationally faster than other existing methods since it only relies on PCA+Kmeans rather than graph-clustering or consensus clustering.

In epigenome-wide association studies, the measured signals for each sample are a mixture of methylation profiles from different cell types. The current approaches to the association detection only claim whether a cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) site is associated with the phenotype or not, but they cannot determine the cell type in which the risk-CpG site is affected by the phenotype. We propose a solid statistical method, HIgh REsolution (HIRE), which not only substantially improves the power of association detection at the aggregated level as compared to the existing methods but also enables the detection of risk-CpG sites for individual cell types. The "HIREewas" R package is to implement HIRE model in R.

Provides R bindings for HiSpa, a hierarchical Bayesian model for inferring three-dimensional chromatin structures from Hi-C contact matrices using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling.

The HOPACH clustering algorithm builds a hierarchical tree of clusters by recursively partitioning a data set, while ordering and possibly collapsing clusters at each level. The algorithm uses the Mean/Median Split Silhouette (MSS) criteria to identify the level of the tree with maximally homogeneous clusters. It also runs the tree down to produce a final ordered list of the elements. The non-parametric bootstrap allows one to estimate the probability that each element belongs to each cluster (fuzzy clustering).

A package for detecting differential methylation. It exploits a Bayesian hidden Markov model that incorporates location dependence among genomic loci, unlike most existing methods that assume independence among observations. Bayesian priors are applied to permit information sharing across an entire chromosome for improved power of detection. The direct output of our software package is the best sequence of methylation states, eliminating the use of a subjective, and most of the time an arbitrary, threshold of p-value for determining significance. At last, our methodology does not require replication in either or both of the two comparison groups.

HVP is a quantitative batch effect metric that estimates the proportion of variance associated with batch effects in a data set.

HybridExpress can be used to perform comparative transcriptomics analysis of hybrids (or allopolyploids) relative to their progenitor species. The package features functions to perform exploratory analyses of sample grouping, identify differentially expressed genes in hybrids relative to their progenitors, classify genes in expression categories (N = 12) and classes (N = 5), and perform functional analyses. We also provide users with graphical functions for the seamless creation of publication-ready figures that are commonly used in the literature.

Performs hybrid multiple testing that incorporates method selection and assumption evaluations into the analysis using empirical Bayes probability (EBP) estimates obtained by Grenander density estimation. For instance, for 3-group comparison analysis, Hybrid Multiple testing considers EBPs as weighted EBPs between F-test and H-test with EBPs from Shapiro Wilk test of normality as weigth. Instead of just using EBPs from F-test only or using H-test only, this methodology combines both types of EBPs through EBPs from Shapiro Wilk test of normality. This methodology uses then the law of total EBPs.

Iteratively Adjusted Surrogate Variable Analysis (IA-SVA) is a statistical framework to uncover hidden sources of variation even when these sources are correlated. IA-SVA provides a flexible methodology to i) identify a hidden factor for unwanted heterogeneity while adjusting for all known factors; ii) test the significance of the putative hidden factor for explaining the unmodeled variation in the data; and iii), if significant, use the estimated factor as an additional known factor in the next iteration to uncover further hidden factors.
