gwasurvivr is a package to perform survival analysis using Cox proportional hazard models on imputed genetic data.
The fmcsR package introduces an efficient maximum common substructure (MCS) algorithms combined with a novel matching strategy that allows for atom and/or bond mismatches in the substructures shared among two small molecules. The resulting flexible MCSs (FMCSs) are often larger than strict MCSs, resulting in the identification of more common features in their source structures, as well as a higher sensitivity in finding compounds with weak structural similarities. The fmcsR package provides several utilities to use the FMCS algorithm for pairwise compound comparisons, structure similarity searching and clustering.
SCUDO (Signature-based Clustering for Diagnostic Purposes) is a rank-based method for the analysis of gene expression profiles for diagnostic and classification purposes. It is based on the identification of sample-specific gene signatures composed of the most up- and down-regulated genes for that sample. Starting from gene expression data, functions in this package identify sample-specific gene signatures and use them to build a graph of samples. In this graph samples are joined by edges if they have a similar expression profile, according to a pre-computed similarity matrix. The similarity between the expression profiles of two samples is computed using a method similar to GSEA. The graph of samples can then be used to perform community clustering or to perform supervised classification of samples in a testing set.

This package contains functions that allow analysing and comparing omic data across various cancers/cancer subgroups easily. So far, it is compatible with RNA-seq, microRNA-seq, microarray and methylation datasets that are stored on cbioportal.org.
Given admixed individuals' bi-allelic SNP genotypes and ancestry pairs (where each ancestry can take one of three values) for multiple SNPs, perform an EM algorithm to deal with the fact that SNP genotypes are unphased with respect to ancestry pairs, in order to estimate ancestry-specific allele frequencies for all SNPs.
