This package calculates metrics which quantify the level of similarity between ChIP-Seq profiles. More specifically, the package implements six pseudometrics specialized in pattern similarity detection in ChIP-Seq profiles.

This package compares genomic positions and genomic ranges from multiple experiments to extract common regions. The size of the analyzed region is adjustable as well as the number of experiences in which a feature must be present in a potential region to tag this region as a consensus region. In genomic analysis where feature identification generates a position value surrounded by a genomic range, such as ChIP-Seq peaks and nucleosome positions, the replication of an experiment may result in slight differences between predicted values. This package enables the conciliation of the results into consensus regions.

Differential expression analysis of sequence count data. Implements a range of statistical methodology based on the negative binomial distributions, including empirical Bayes estimation, exact tests, generalized linear models, quasi-likelihood, and gene set enrichment. Can perform differential analyses of any type of omics data that produces read counts, including RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq, Bisulfite-seq, SAGE, CAGE, metabolomics, or proteomics spectral counts. RNA-seq analyses can be conducted at the gene or isoform level, and tests can be conducted for differential exon or transcript usage.

GAGE is a published method for gene set (enrichment or GSEA) or pathway analysis. GAGE is generally applicable independent of microarray or RNA-Seq data attributes including sample sizes, experimental designs, assay platforms, and other types of heterogeneity, and consistently achieves superior performance over other frequently used methods. In gage package, we provide functions for basic GAGE analysis, result processing and presentation. We have also built pipeline routines for of multiple GAGE analyses in a batch, comparison between parallel analyses, and combined analysis of heterogeneous data from different sources/studies. In addition, we provide demo microarray data and commonly used gene set data based on KEGG pathways and GO terms. These funtions and data are also useful for gene set analysis using other methods.

This package is intended to identify differentially expressed genes driven by Copy Number Alterations from samples with both gene expression and CNA data.

MotifPeeker is used to compare and analyse datasets from epigenomic profiling methods with motif enrichment as the key benchmark. The package outputs an HTML report consisting of three sections: (1. General Metrics) Overview of peaks-related general metrics for the datasets (FRiP scores, peak widths and motif-summit distances). (2. Known Motif Enrichment Analysis) Statistics for the frequency of user-provided motifs enriched in the datasets. (3. Motif Discovery Enrichment Analysis) Statistics for the frequency of ab-initio discovered motifs enriched in the datasets and compared with known motifs.

Linnorm is an algorithm for normalizing and transforming RNA-seq, single cell RNA-seq, ChIP-seq count data or any large scale count data. It has been independently reviewed by Tian et al. on Nature Methods (https://doi.org/10.1038/s41592-019-0425-8). Linnorm can work with raw count, CPM, RPKM, FPKM and TPM.
