Provides methods to convert between Python AnnData objects and SingleCellExperiment objects. These are primarily intended for use by downstream Bioconductor packages that wrap Python methods for single-cell data analysis. It also includes functions to read and write H5AD files used for saving AnnData objects to disk.

Bring the power and flexibility of AnnData to the R ecosystem, allowing you to effortlessly manipulate and analyse your single-cell data. This package lets you work with backed h5ad and zarr files, directly access various slots (e.g. X, obs, var), or convert the data into SingleCellExperiment and Seurat objects.

Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) is widely used to investigate the composition of complex tissues since the technology allows researchers to define cell-types using unsupervised clustering of the transcriptome. However, due to differences in experimental methods and computational analyses, it is often challenging to directly compare the cells identified in two different experiments. scmap is a method for projecting cells from a scRNA-seq experiment on to the cell-types or individual cells identified in a different experiment.

The Connectivity Map (CMap) is a massive resource of perturbational gene expression profiles built by researchers at the Broad Institute and funded by the NIH Library of Integrated Network-Based Cellular Signatures (LINCS) program. Please visit https://clue.io for more information. The cmapR package implements methods to parse, manipulate, and write common CMap data objects, such as annotated matrices and collections of gene sets.

Defines an S4 class for storing data from spatial -omics experiments. The class extends SingleCellExperiment to support storage and retrieval of additional information from spot-based and molecule-based platforms, including spatial coordinates, images, and image metadata. A specialized constructor function is included for data from the 10x Genomics Visium platform.

Toolbox for larger-than-memory scientific computing and visualization, providing efficient out-of-core data structures using files or shared memory, for dense and sparse vectors, matrices, and arrays, with applications to nonuniformly sampled signals and images.
