Algorithm Metadata Vocabulary is a vocabulary for capturing and storing the metadata about the algorithms (a procedure or a set of rules that is followed step-by-step to solve a problem, especially by a computer). There are uncountable algorithms present in every area (e.g., Computer Science, Mathematics), which makes it hard for specialists, academicians, application engineers, and so forth to discover, distinguish, select, and reuse them.

This packages provides a single function, readEDS. This is a low-level utility for reading in Alevin EDS format into R. This function is not designed for end-users but instead the package is predominantly for simplifying package dependency graph for other Bioconductor packages.

scDDboost is an R package to analyze changes in the distribution of single-cell expression data between two experimental conditions. Compared to other methods that assess differential expression, scDDboost benefits uniquely from information conveyed by the clustering of cells into cellular subtypes. Through a novel empirical Bayesian formulation it calculates gene-specific posterior probabilities that the marginal expression distribution is the same (or different) between the two conditions. The implementation in scDDboost treats gene-level expression data within each condition as a mixture of negative binomial distributions.

snapcount is a client interface to the Snaptron webservices which support querying by gene name or genomic region.

multiHiCcompare provides functions for joint normalization and difference detection in multiple Hi-C datasets. This extension of the original HiCcompare package now allows for Hi-C experiments with more than 2 groups and multiple samples per group. multiHiCcompare operates on processed Hi-C data in the form of sparse upper triangular matrices. It accepts four column (chromosome, region1, region2, IF) tab-separated text files storing chromatin interaction matrices. multiHiCcompare provides cyclic loess and fast loess (fastlo) methods adapted to jointly normalizing Hi-C data. Additionally, it provides a general linear model (GLM) framework adapting the edgeR package to detect differences in Hi-C data in a distance dependent manner.

This package provides many easy-to-use methods to analyze and visualize tomo-seq data. The tomo-seq technique is based on cryosectioning of tissue and performing RNA-seq on consecutive sections. (Reference: Kruse F, Junker JP, van Oudenaarden A, Bakkers J. Tomo-seq: A method to obtain genome-wide expression data with spatial resolution. Methods Cell Biol. 2016;135:299-307. doi:10.1016/bs.mcb.2016.01.006) The main purpose of the package is to find zones with similar transcriptional profiles and spatially expressed genes in a tomo-seq sample. Several visulization functions are available to create easy-to-modify plots.

CIMICE is a tool in the field of tumor phylogenetics and its goal is to build a Markov Chain (called Cancer Progression Markov Chain, CPMC) in order to model tumor subtypes evolution. The input of CIMICE is a Mutational Matrix, so a boolean matrix representing altered genes in a collection of samples. These samples are assumed to be obtained with single-cell DNA analysis techniques and the tool is specifically written to use the peculiarities of this data for the CMPC construction.

FASTQ/A short-reads pre-processing tools: Demultiplexing, trimming, clipping, quality filtering, and masking utilities.

Suffix Array Kernel Smoothing (see https://academic.oup.com/bioinformatics/article-abstract/35/20/3944/5418797), or SArKS, identifies sequence motifs whose presence correlates with numeric scores (such as differential expression statistics) assigned to the sequences (such as gene promoters). SArKS smooths over sequence similarity, quantified by location within a suffix array based on the full set of input sequences. A second round of smoothing over spatial proximity within sequences reveals multi-motif domains. Discovered motifs can then be merged or extended based on adjacency within MMDs. False positive rates are estimated and controlled by permutation testing.

In the single cell World, which includes flow cytometry, mass cytometry, single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq), and others, there is a need to improve data visualisation and to bring analysis capabilities to researchers even from non-technical backgrounds. scDataviz attempts to fit into this space, while also catering for advanced users. Additonally, due to the way that scDataviz is designed, which is based on SingleCellExperiment, it has a 'plug and play' feel, and immediately lends itself as flexibile and compatibile with studies that go beyond scDataviz. Finally, the graphics in scDataviz are generated via the ggplot engine, which means that users can 'add on' features to these with ease.

Characterization of intra-individual variability using physiologically relevant measurements provides important insights into fundamental biological questions ranging from cell type identity to tumor development. For each individual, the data measurements can be written as a matrix with the different subsamples of the individual recorded in the columns and the different phenotypic units recorded in the rows. Datasets of this type are called high-dimensional transposable data. The HDTD package provides functions for conducting statistical inference for the mean relationship between the row and column variables and for the covariance structure within and between the row and column variables.

An approach to filter out and/or identify phytoplankton cells from all particles measured via flow cytometry pigment and cell complexity information. It does this using a sequence of one-dimensional gates on pre-defined channels measuring certain pigmentation and complexity. The package is especially tuned for cyanobacteria, but will work fine for phytoplankton communities where there is at least one cell characteristic that differentiates every phytoplankton in the community.

The WPM allows users to generate well plate maps to carry out their experiments while improving the handling of batch effects. In particular, it helps controlling the "plate effect" thanks to its ability to randomize samples over multiple well plates. The algorithm for placing the samples is inspired by the backtracking algorithm: the samples are placed at random while respecting specific spatial constraints.

epidecodeR is a package capable of analysing impact of degree of DNA/RNA epigenetic chemical modifications on dysregulation of genes or proteins. This package integrates chemical modification data generated from a host of epigenomic or epitranscriptomic techniques such as ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq, m6A-seq, etc. and dysregulated gene lists in the form of differential gene expression, ribosome occupancy or differential protein translation and identify impact of dysregulation of genes caused due to varying degrees of chemical modifications associated with the genes. epidecodeR generates cumulative distribution function (CDF) plots showing shifts in trend of overall log2FC between genes divided into groups based on the degree of modification associated with the genes. The tool also tests for significance of difference in log2FC between groups of genes.
