BUSpaRse The kallisto | bustools pipeline is a fast and modular set of tools to convert single cell RNA-seq reads in fastq files into gene count or transcript compatibility counts (TCC) matrices for downstream analysis. Central to this pipeline is the barcode, UMI, and set (BUS) file format. This package serves the following purposes: First, this package allows users to manipulate BUS format files as data frames in R and then convert them into gene count or TCC matrices. Furthermore, since R and Rcpp code is easier to handle than pure C++ code, users are encouraged to tweak the source code of this package to experiment with new uses of BUS format and different ways to convert the BUS file into gene count matrix. Second, this package can conveniently generate files required to generate gene count matrices for spliced and unspliced transcripts for RNA velocity. Third, this package implements utility functions to get transcripts and associated genes required to convert BUS files to gene count matrices, to write the transcript to gene information in the format required by bustools, and to read output of bustools into R as sparses matrices.
calm Statistical methods for multiple testing with covariate information. Traditional multiple testing methods only consider a list of test statistics, such as p-values. Our methods incorporate the auxiliary information, such as the lengths of gene coding regions or the minor allele frequencies of SNPs, to improve power.
circRNAprofiler R-based computational framework for a comprehensive in silico analysis of circRNAs. This computational framework allows to combine and analyze circRNAs previously detected by multiple publicly available annotation-based circRNA detection tools. It covers different aspects of circRNAs analysis from differential expression analysis, evolutionary conservation, biogenesis to functional analysis.
cliqueMS Annotates data from liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC/MS) metabolomics experiments. Based on a network algorithm (O.Senan, A. Aguilar- Mogas, M. Navarro, O. Yanes, R.Guimerà and M. Sales-Pardo, Metabolomics Conference (2016), Dublin), ‘CliqueMS’ builds a weighted similarity network where nodes are features and edges are weighted according to the similarity of this features. Then it searches for the most plausible division of the similarity network into cliques (fully connected components). Finally it annotates metabolites within each clique, obtaining for each annotated metabolite the neutral mass and their features, corresponding to isotopes, ionization adducts and fragmentation adducts of that metabolite.

DEWSeq Differential expression analysis of windows for next-generation sequencing data like eCLIP or iCLIP data.
DMCFB DMCFB is a pipeline for identifying differentially methylated cytosines using a Bayesian functional regression model in bisulfite sequencing data. By using a functional regression data model, it tries to capture position-specific, group-specific and other covariates-specific methylation patterns as well as spatial correlation patterns and unknown underlying models of methylation data. It is robust and flexible with respect to the true underlying models and inclusion of any covariates, and the missing values are imputed using spatial correlation between positions and samples. A Bayesian approach is adopted for estimation and inference in the proposed method.
fcoex The fcoex package implements an easy-to use interface to co-expression analysisbased on the FCBF (Fast Correlation-Based Filter) algorithm. it was implemented especifically to deal with single-cell data. The modules found can be used to redefine cell populations, unrevel novel gene associations and predict gene function by guilt-by-association. The package structure is based on the CEMiTool package.
fcScan This package is used to detect combination of genomic coordinates falling within a user defined window size along with user defined overlap between identified neighboring clusters. It can be used for genomic data where the clusters are built on a specific chromosome or specific strand. Clustering can be performed with a “greedy” option allowing thus the presence of additional sites within the allowed window size.
flowSpecs This package is intended to fill the role of conventional cytometry pre-processing software, for spectral decomposition, transformation, visualization and cleanup, and to aid further downstream analyses, such as with DepecheR, by enabling transformation of flowFrames and flowSets to dataframes. Functions for flowCore-compliant automatic 1D-gating/filtering are in the pipe line. The package name has been chosen both as it will deal with spectral cytometry and as it will hopefully give the user a nice pair of spectacles through which to view their data.

It employs Bayesian hierarchical models to fit complex gene usage data from immune repertoire sequencing experiments and quantifies Ig gene usage biases as probabilities.
KnowSeq KnowSeq proposes a whole pipeline that comprises the most relevant steps in the RNA-seq gene expression analysis, with the main goal of extracting biological knowledge from raw data (Differential Expressed Genes, Gene Ontology enrichment, pathway visualization and related diseases). In this sense, KnowSeq allows aligning raw data from the original fastq or sra files, by using the most renowned aligners such as tophat2, hisat2, salmon and kallisto. Nowadays, there is no package that only from the information of the samples to align -included in a text file-, automatically performs the download and alignment of all of the samples. Furthermore, the package includes functions to: calculate the gene expression values; remove batch effect; calculate the Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs); plot different graphs; and perform the DEGs enrichment with the GO information, pathways visualization and related diseases information retrieval. Moreover, KnowSeq is the only package that allows applying both a machine learning and DEGs enrichment processes just after the DEGs extraction. This idea emerged with the aim of proposing a complete tool to the research community containing all the necessary steps to carry out complete studies in a simple and fast way.
LinkHD Here we present Link-HD, an approach to integrate heterogeneous datasets, as a generalization of STATIS-ACT (“Structuration des Tableaux A Trois Indices de la Statistique–Analyse Conjointe de Tableaux”), a family of methods to join and compare information from multiple subspaces. However, STATIS-ACT has some drawbacks since it only allows continuous data and it is unable to establish relationships between samples and features. In order to tackle these constraints, we incorporate multiple distance options and a linear regression based Biplot model in order to stablish relationships between observations and variable and perform variable selection.
lionessR LIONESS, or Linear Interpolation to Obtain Network Estimates for Single Samples, can be used to reconstruct single-sample networks (https://arxiv.org/abs/1505.06440). This code implements the LIONESS equation in the lioness function in R to reconstruct single-sample networks. The default network reconstruction method we use is based on Pearson correlation. However, lionessR can run on any network reconstruction algorithms that returns a complete, weighted adjacency matrix. lionessR works for both unipartite and bipartite networks.

MEB Identifying differential expression genes between the same or different species is an urgent demand for biological research. In most of cases, normalization is the first step to solve this problem, then by employing the hypothesis testing, we could detect statistically significant genes. With the development of machine learning, it gives us a new perspective on discrimination between differential expression (DE) and non-differential expression (non-DE) genes. Provided a set of training data, the procedure of distinguishing genes could be simplified as a classification problem. However, in reality, it is hard for us to get the information from both DE and non-DE genes. To solve this problem, we try to identify differential cases only in the domain of non-DE genes, and transform the problem to an outlier detection in machine learning. Given that non-DE genes have some similarities in features, we build a Minimum Enclosing Ball (MEB) to cover those non-DE genes in feature space, then those DE genes, which are enormously different from non-DE genes, being regarded as outliers and rejected outside the ball. Compared with existing methods, it is no need for the MEB method to normalize data in advance. Besides, the MEB method could be easily applied to the same or different species data and without changing too much.
MetaVolcanoR This package combines differential gene expression results. It implements three strategies to summarize differential gene expression from different studies. i) Random Effects Model (REM) approach, ii) a p-value combining-approach, and iii) a naive vote-counting approach. In all cases, MetaVolcano exploits the Volcano plot reasoning to visualize the gene expression meta-analysis results.

RNAsense RNA-sense tool compares RNA-seq time curves in two experimental conditions, i.e. wild-type and mutant, and works in three steps. At Step 1, it builds expression profile for each transcript in one condition (i.e. wild-type) and tests if the transcript abundance grows or decays significantly. Dynamic transcripts are then sorted to non-overlapping groups (time profiles) by the time point of switch up or down. At Step 2, RNA-sense outputs the groups of differentially expressed transcripts, which are up- or downregulated in the mutant compared to the wild-type at each time point. At Step 3, Correlations (Fisher’s exact test) between the outputs of Step 1 (switch up- and switch down- time profile groups) and the outputs of Step2 (differentially expressed transcript groups) are calculated. The results of the correlation analysis are printed as two-dimensional color plot, with time profiles and differential expression groups at y- and x-axis, respectively, and facilitates the biological interpretation of the data.
SAIGEgds Scalable implementation of generalized mixed models with highly optimized C++ implementation and integration with Genomic Data Structure (GDS) files. It is designed for single variant tests in large-scale phenome-wide association studies (PheWAS) with millions of variants and samples, controlling for sample structure and case-control imbalance.

SCANVIS SCANVIS is a set of annotation-dependent tools for analyzing splice junctions and their read support as predetermined by an alignment tool of choice (for example, STAR aligner). SCANVIS assesses each junction’s relative read support (RRS) by relating to the context of local split reads aligning to annotated transcripts. SCANVIS also annotates each splice junction by indicating whether the junction is supported by annotation or not, and if not, what type of junction it is (e.g. exon skipping, alternative 5’ or 3’ events, Novel Exons). Unannotated junctions are also futher annotated by indicating whether it induces a frame shift or not. SCANVIS includes a visualization function to generate static sashimi-style plots depicting relative read support and number of split reads using arc thickness and arc heights, making it easy for users to spot well-supported junctions. These plots also clearly delineate unannotated junctions from annotated ones using designated color schemes, and users can also highlight splice junctions of choice. Variants and/or a read profile are also incoroporated into the plot if the user supplies variants in bed format and/or the BAM file. One further feature of the visualization function is that users can submit multiple samples of a certain disease or cohort to generate a single plot - this occurs via a “merge” function wherein junction details over multiple samples are merged to generate a single sashimi plot, which is useful when contrasting cohorots (eg. disease vs control).
scBFA This package is designed to model gene detection pattern of scRNA-seq through a binary factor analysis model.

The interface of RangedSummarizedExperiment data format enables easy and common manipulations for high-throughput genetic/genomic data with common SummarizedExperiment metaphor in R and Bioconductor.
ViSEAGO The main objective of ViSEAGO package is to carry out a data mining of biological functions and establish links between genes involved in the study. We developed ViSEAGO in R to facilitate functional Gene Ontology (GO) analysis of complex experimental design with multiple comparisons of interest. It allows to study large-scale datasets together and visualize GO profiles to capture biological knowledge. The acronym stands for three major concepts of the analysis: Visualization, Semantic similarity and Enrichment Analysis of Gene Ontology. It provides access to the last current GO annotations, which are retrieved from one of NCBI EntrezGene, Ensembl or Uniprot databases for several species. Using available R packages and novel developments, ViSEAGO extends classical functional GO analysis to focus on functional coherence by aggregating closely related biological themes while studying multiple datasets at once. It provides both a synthetic and detailed view using interactive functionalities respecting the GO graph structure and ensuring functional coherence supplied by semantic similarity.

Processed data is provided as phyloseq, SummarizedExperiment, and MultiAssayExperiment class objects. Individual matrices and data.frames used for building these S4 class objects are also provided in the package.
MMAPPR2data Contains data for illustration purposes in the MMAPPR2 package, namely simulated BAM files containing RNA-Seq data for a mutation in the slc24a5 gene, taken from the GRCz11 genome. Also contains reference sequence and annotation files for the region.
MouseGastrulationData Provides processed and raw count matrices for single-cell RNA sequencing data from a timecourse of mouse gastrulation and early organogenesis.
muscData Data package containing a collection of multi-sample multi-group scRNA-seq datasets in SingleCellExperiment Bioconductor object format.
PhyloProfileData Two experimental datasets to illustrate running and analysing phylogenetic profiles with PhyloProfile package.
pwrEWAS.data This package provides reference data required for pwrEWAS. pwrEWAS is a user-friendly tool to estimate power in EWAS as a function of sample and effect size for two-group comparisons of DNAm (e.g., case vs control, exposed vs non-exposed, etc.).
ReactomeGSA.data Companion data sets to showcase the functionality of the ReactomeGSA package. This package contains proteomics and RNA-seq data of the melanoma B-cell induction study by Griss et al.
RNAmodR.Data RNAmodR.Data contains example data, which is used for vignettes and example workflows in the RNAmodR and dependent packages.
SBGNview.data This package contains: 1. A microarray gene expression dataset from a human breast cancer study. 2. A RNA-Seq gene expression dataset from a mouse study on IFNG knockout. 3. ID mapping tables between gene IDs and SBGN-ML file glyph IDs. 4. Percent of orthologs detected in other species of the genes in a pathway. Cutoffs of this percentage for defining if a pathway exists in another species. 5. XML text of SBGN-ML files for all pre-collected pathways.
signatureSearchData CMAP/LINCS hdf5 databases and other annotations used for signatureSearch software package.
tartare provides raw files (size=278MBytes) recorded on different Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) instruments. All included MS instruments are manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific and belong to the Orbitrap Tribrid or Q Exactive Orbitrap family of instruments. Despite their common origin and shared hardware components (e.g. Orbitrap mass analyser), the above instruments tend to write data in different “dialects” in a shared binary file format (.raw). The intention behind tartare is to provide complex but slim real-world files that can be used to make code robust with respect to this diversity. In other words, it is intended for enhanced unit testing. The package is considered to be used with the rawDiag package (Trachsel, 2018 <doi:10.1021/acs.jproteome.8b00173>) and the Spectra MsBackends.
TENxBUSData Download Barcode, UMI, and Set (BUS) format of 10x datasets from within R. This package accompanies the package BUSpaRse, which can load BUS format into R as a sparse matrix, and which has utility functions related to using the C++ command line package bustools.

New Annotation Packages

There are 3 new annotation packages in this release of Bioconductor.

NEWS from new and existing Software Packages

AffiXcan

Changes in version 1.3.7

UPDATED VIGNETTE

Package vignette has been updated to address the new features

ALSO MODELS’ P-VALUES AND RHO ARE RETURNED IN CROSS-VALIDATION

For each fold, for each gene for which a GReX could be imputed, the following values are now returned
Squared correlation of the model’s predictions with training data
P-value of the model
Corrected p-value of the model with benjamini-hochberg procedure
Correlation of the model’s predictions with validation data
Squared correlation of the model’s predictions with validation data
P-value of the correlation test of the model’s predictions with validation data

Changes in version 1.3.5

P-VALUE OF THE CORRELATION TEST

P-value of the cor.test() between predicted GReX and real expression values of genes is returned in when performing cross-validation
When using affiXcanTrain in cross-validation mode, three main values for each gene are therefore returned: rho and rho squared (see changes in v 1.3.1), and the p-value of cor.test()

Changes in version 1.3.3

UPDATED DOCUMENTATION

Formatting of functions documentation has been improved
Important: vignette is still outdated (AffiXcan 1.2.0)

Changes in version 1.3.2

POPULATION STRUCTURE COVARIATES ARE OPTIONAL

Providing population structure covariates is now not mandatory to perform models training

Changes in version 1.3.1

K-FOLD CROSS-VALIDATION IS SUPPORTED

ANOVA p-value < 0.05 to assess prediction significance is not used anymore; instead:
A k-fold cross-validation on the training dataset may be performed; k can be defined by the user
Pearson correlation coefficients (R) and determination coefficients (R^2) between predicted GReX and real expression values of genes are computed
In literature, GReX of genes for which the mean of the R^2 is above 0.01 are considered non-randomly predicted, according to the new benchmarking standards [ref]

Remove duplicated text from BASiCS_Chain’s show method.

Changes in version 1.7.18 (2019-10-06)

Refactor HVG/LVG plots code to use ggplot2. When calling BASiCS_DetectHVG or BASiCS_DetectLVG, the plots are now stored in the returned list in the named element Plots. The vignette has been updated to show the usage of this functionality.
In all unit tests: use expect_equal(foo, bar) instead of expect_true(all.equal(foo, bar)). This gives better printing (ie, if it’s not true it tells by what margin)
Rename some functions for consistency in capitalisation. For example, BASiCS_showFit has been deprecated and renamed to BASiCS_ShowFit.
Add a Smooth argument to BASiCS_DiagPlot.
BASiCS_TestDE is now explicit about requiring the same number of samples in both chains. Previously it would fail due to arrays of non-conformable dimensions.

min.mean parameter exposed in BASiCS_CorrectOffset and BASiCS_TestDE

Changes in version 1.7.7 (2019-08-20)

Preliminary version of BASiCS_CorrectOffset has been added. This includes a trimmed option for the offset calculation that excludes lowly expressed genes. This is similar to what is implemented in `scran:::.rescale_clusters

Changes in version 1.7.6 (2019-08-19)

Offset correction within BASiCS_TestDE modified to use rowMedians instead of rowSums2. This makes it more robust to outlier genes.
Unit tests updated accordingly.

Changes in version 1.7.5 (2019-07-30)

Returns to original updates for X (fixed after burn-in)

Changes in version 1.7.4 (2019-07-30)

Changes in version 0.99.25 (2019-09-11)

Added message to indicate when get_velocity_files is extracting exon-exon junctions. - Restored “separate” to be default isoform_action in get_velocity_files.

Changes in version 0.99.24 (2019-09-06)

When sorting tr2g from file, now the file must be formatted in ways required by bustools.

Changes in version 0.99.23 (2019-09-06)

Previous two version bumps did not accompany changes; those were used to trigger rebuilds on Bioconductor. - Added the functionality to use L-1 (L is read length) bases around exon-exon junction to better distinguish between spliced and unspliced transcripts for RNA velocity. - Fixed serious problem with get_velocity_file that counted reads mapping to exons of length between L-1 and 2(L-1) as from unspliced transcript. This was done by an reimplementation of the method to get flanked intronic ranges. - Changed default isoform_action to “collapse”. - Make sure that all transcripts in tr2g.tsv from get_velocity_files are in the transcriptome.

Changes in version 0.99.20 (2019-08-26)

Addressed Bioconductor review.

Submitted package to Bioconductor for review

CAGEfightR

Changes in version 1.5.3

Added citation to BMC Bioinformatics paper.

Changes in version 1.5

Added new functions for spatial analysis of clusters: findLinks finds nearby pairs of clusters (for example TSSs and enhancers) and calculates the correlation of expression between them. findStretches find stretches along the genome where clusters are within a certain distance of eachother (for example groups of enhancer forming a super enhancer) and calculates the average pairwise correlation between members.
Changed the way clustering works: CAGEfightR uses coverage() to calculate genome-wide signals and now rounds the resulting signal to a certain number of digits (this can be modified via the CAGEfightR.round option), to prevent small positive or negative values due to floating point errors. This makes clustering more stable meaning the tuneTagClustering function is now deprecated. This should also increase the speed of most functions.
CAGEfightR now uses GPos instead of GRanges for storing CTSSs, this should result in improved memory performance.
Several changes to clusterBidirectionality: Balance is now calculated using the midpoint as well (preventing some rare cases where the midpoint could mask a single highly expressed CTSS), the pooled CTSS signal is now prefiltered for bidirectionality to increase speed and custom balance function can be provided (Bhattacharyya coefficient and Andersson’s D are included).
Added new check-functions to make it easier to check if objects are formatted correctly

CAGEr

Changes in version 1.28.0

BACKWARDS-INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES

The CTSS objects are now based on the UnstitchedGPos class instead of the parent GPos class. Existing CAGEexp objects might give errors after package upgrade.

NEW FEATURES

Depends on MultiAssayExperiemnt instead of previously Importing it. No need to load it by hand (nor SummaryExperiment) anymore.

BUG FIXES

Correct strand in .remove.added.G private function (PR#26).

Fixing the dColorPlot and the dDensityPlot functions, so that original names
in character vectors and factors are correctly displayed.

derfinder

Changes in version 1.19.9

BUG FIXES

Fixed an important bug in findRegions() that affected the end positions of the regions when maxRegionGap was supplied with a value greater than the default of 0 and the data was filtered (so position was not all TRUE in the findRegions() call). To check this scenario now there is a new unit test under tests/testthat/test-maxRegionGap.R. - The above bug went unnoticed in getRegionCoverage() and thus for regionMatrix() for the same type of situations (filtered data with a non-zero maxRegionGap). The coverage values are ok, it’s just the end positions of the regions returned by findRegions() that were incorrect and that would need to be re-computed with the fixed version. - Changed some internal tests to check bumphunter::loessByCluster() instead of bumphunter::runmedByCluster() given some issues with the second one.

Changes in version 1.19.8

Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.

Changes in version 1.19.4

BUG FIXES

railMatrix() and loadCoverage() helper functions had an issue when the input set of regions was duplicated. This could be reproduced with

sampleFile <- c(‘SRR387777’ = ‘http://duffel.rail.bio/recount/SRP009615/bw/SRR387777.bw’) regs <- GenomicRanges::GRanges(‘chrY’, IRanges(start = c(1, 1), width = 10), strand = ‘-‘) names(regs) <- c(1:2) result <- rtracklayer::import(sampleFile, selection = regs, as = ‘RleList’)

This error affected recount and other reverse dependencies that use derfinder for processing BigWig files.

Changes in version 1.19.2

BUG FIXES

railMatrix() and loadCoverage() helper functions now attempt to import a BigWig file 3 times before giving up. Based on http://bioconductor.org/developers/how-to/web-query/ and https://github.com/leekgroup/recount/commit/8da982b309e2d19638166f263057d9f85bb64e3f which will make these functions more robust to occasional web access issues.

derfinderPlot

Changes in version 1.19.3

Added a NEWS.md file to track changes to the package.

DESeq2

Changes in version 1.26.0

Incorporation of fast code from Constantin Ahlmann-Eltze which speeds up DESeq2 for large sample sizes (n > 100) by at least an order of magnitude. In fact the speed is now linear with number of samples whereas previously DESeq2 would scale quadratically. The critical merge commits were: c96c1c0ad43280c82403d3e6bc3501332a62e7b8 (2019-07-16) 0a47a0c750aa5c31df759a171c737d6ed782d6c2 (2019-07-30)
Fixed a bug where rbind() in parallel=TRUE would proliferate metadata items.

DMRcate

Changes in version 2.0.0

Full utility for WGBS and RRBS assays implemented using sequencing.annotate(): Users can either input a) A BSseq object and model matrix from edgeR::modelMatrixMeth, or b) Output from DSS::DMLtest() or DSS::DMLtest.multiFactor(),
Major reconstruction of class types in S4: a S3 “annot” object is now a S4 “CpGannotated” object and a S3 “dmrcate.output” object has had its “input” and “pcutoff” slots removed, and “results” are now represented in an S4
Improved DMR.plot() using more detailed transcript annotation from hg19, hg38 and mm10 GeneRegionTracks from updated DMRcatedata, as well as smoothed group means (group specified via “phen.col” argument). For bisulfite sequencing assays, the CpGs argument now takes a BSseq object instead of a GRanges object
Extra DMR-level summary statistics including Fisher’s multiple comparison test and harmonic mean of individual CpG FDRs
Addition of the changeFDR() utility function that allows the re-thresholding of a “CpGannotated” object without fitting the entire model again
Simplification of the rmSNPandCH() function
Overlapping.promoters in extractRanges() are now overlapping.genes
All vignette examples use ExperimentHub data
Extra data object from DMRcatedata needed for rmSNPandCH(), extractRanges() and DMR.plot() are now in ExperimentHub
Removal of the “p.adjust.method” argument to dmrcate() - it is confusing since thresholding should be performed at the (cpg|sequencing).annotate level
Removal of the “samps” argument to DMR.plot() - it is redundant and usage can be specified by subsetting “CpGs” and “phen.col”
Multicore processing removed since WGBS DMRs should be able to be produced in serial in < 1 hour

Changes in version 3.28.0

Add head() and tail() methods for edgeR classes.
Remove the ‘mixed.df’ argument and add a ‘locfit.mixed’ option to ‘trend.method’ in estimateDisp() and WLEB().
Add two new arguments ‘large.n’ and ‘min.prop’ to filterByExpr() to allow users to change parameters previously hard-wired.
Remove ‘values’ and ‘col’ arguments to plotMD.DGELRT() and plotMD.ExactTest() as no longer needed because of changes to plotWithHighlights().
roast.DGEList() and mroast.DGEList() now pass the ‘nrot’ argument to roast.default().
Rename dglmStdResid() to plotMeanVar2().
getDispersions() is no longer exported.

epivizrServer

Changes in version 999.999

This NEWS file is only a placeholder. The version 999.999 does not really exist. Please read the NEWS on Github: <URL: https://github.com/epiviz/epivizrServer>

ExperimentHub

Changes in version 1.11.0

NEW FEATURES

(1.11.2) system environment variable to control localHub option for creating hub based only on previously downloaded resources
(1.11.5) With change in AnnotationHub. All force redownload of Hub sqlite file with refreshHub

BUG FIXES

(1.11.2) Fix localHub when no internet connection. The internal use of isDevel was preventing Hub creation when no internet connection. Fixed by checking connection. This code pretained to orgDb filters

FELLA

Changes in version 1.5.3

Changed buildDataFromGraph() so that it looks for organismal annotations in keggInfo().
If ncbi-geneid was not available, buildDataFromGraph() would crash with 404. Now, it can use ncbi-proteinid if ncbi-geneid is missing.
Discovered by LY by building db for "cvi"
Small update on sanitise()

Changes in version 1.4.2

The REST KEGG service changed and modules are no longer listable by organism. FELLA now chooses modules that have at least one organismal gene. This seems equivalent to picking the modules from keggLink("genome", "module"), but the latter is slow (90s).

Changes in version 1.4.1

Fixed bug in vignette due to changes in biomaRt

fgsea

Changes in version 1.11.2

Simpler handling of conditional probabilities
Added the exact algorithm to inst folder

Changes in version 1.11.1

Proper absEps handling

fishpond

Changes in version 1.2.0

Switching to a faster version of Swish which only computes the ranks of the data once, and then re-uses this for the permutation distribution. This bypasses the addition of uniform noise per permutation and is 10x faster. Two designs which still require re-computation of ranks per permutation are the paired analysis and the general interaction analysis. Two-group, stratified two-group, and the paired interaction analysis now default to the new fast method, but the original, slower method can be used by setting fast=0 in the call to swish().
Adding Rcpp-based function readEDS() written by Avi Srivastava which imports the sparse counts stored in Alevin’s Efficient Data Storage (EDS) format.
Changed the vignette so that it (will) use a linkedTxome, as sometime the build would break if the Bioc build machine couldn’t access ftp.ebi.ac.uk.
Add ‘computeInfRV’ function. InfRV is not used in the Swish methods, only for visualization purposes in the Swish paper.
removed ‘samr’ from Imports, as it required source installation, moved to Suggests, for optional qvalue calculation

Changes in version 2.15.3

Add option “fastSKAT” to assocTestAggregate. Some other arguments and names of output columns for SKAT tests have also changed. This update includes code from the bigQF package (https://github.com/tslumley/bigQF). With the addition of C code, GENESIS now requires compliation.

GenomicAlignments

Changes in version 1.22.0

NEW FEATURES

Add stackStringsFromGAlignments(). Analog to stackStringsFromBam() except that it stacks the read sequences stored in a GAlignments object instead of a BAM file.

BUG FIXES

Fix summarizeJunctions() error when no junctions are found and ‘genome’ is specified.

GenomicFeatures

Changes in version 1.38.0

NEW FEATURES

Small improvement to exonicParts() and intronicParts(): - When ‘linked.to.single.gene.only’ is set to TRUE, exonicParts() now returns an additional “exonic_part” metadata column that indicates the rank of each exonic part within all the exonic parts linked to the same gene. This is for compatibility with old disjointExons(). - intronicParts() does something similar except that the additional metadata column is named “intronic_part”.

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

makeTxDbFromGRanges() and makeTxDbFromGFF() now recognize more features as transcripts, exons, or CDS (see commits 822665f8 and 6281f856)

GenomicRanges

Changes in version 1.38.0

NEW FEATURES

GPos objects now exist in 2 flavors: UnstitchedGPos and StitchedGPos GPos is now a virtual class with 2 concrete subclasses: UnstitchedGPos and StitchedGPos. In an UnstitchedGPos instance the positions are stored as an integer vector. In a StitchedGPos instance, like with old GPos instances, the positions are stored as an IRanges object where each range represents a run of consecutive positions. This is analog to the IPos/UnstitchedIPos/StitchedIPos situation. See ?GPos for more information. Old serialized GPos instances can be converted to StitchedGPos instances with updateObject().
GPos objects now can hold names
Coercion to GPos now propagates the names
Add GRangesFactor class (Factor derivative). See ?GRangesFactor

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

Export from_GPos_to_GRanges()
Some reorgnization of the GenomicRangesList hierarchy (see commit f988a5a9).
Swap order of arguments ‘seqlengths’ and ‘seqinfo’ of the GRanges() constructor so now the latter comes before the former.

DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT

Remove findOverlaps, seqnames, and seqinfo<- methods for RangedData objects. These methods were deprecated in BioC 3.8 and defunct in BioC 3.9.

BUG FIXES

Coercion from RangesList to GRanges is more robust to seqlevel differences
Fix bug in isSmallGenome() (introduced by change in sum() in R >= 3.5)

GenomicScores

Changes in version 1.10.0

USER VISIBLE CHANGES

Added support to latest release 3.0 of gnomAD MAF data, stored in the package MafDb.gnomAD.r3.0.GRCh38.
Individual allele frequencies can be now retrieved from MafDb.* packages when ‘ref’ and ‘alt’ arguments are given to the functions ‘gscores()’ and ‘score()’. See manual pages and vignette for further details.
NonSNRs are now searched giving the argument type=”equal” to findOverlaps(). This means that only scores from exact matches to nonSNRs are returned.

BUG FIXES

Bugfix on the ‘getGScores(‘) function that precluded accessing the files downloaded by the AnnotationHub
Bugfix in accessing MAF values from nonSNVs when multiallelic variants are stored in different records from the VCF file.

immunoClust

Changes in version 1.17.3

CHANGES * bugfix in subset.immunoMeta

Changes in version 1.17.2

NEW FEATURES * introducing immunoMeta-class on meta-clustering results to buildup and annotate a hierachical population/sub-populaton tree
CHANGES * trail of automated annotation of meta-clusters using scatter-clustering is removed. The approach does not work in a usefull manner. Instead the immunoMeta-class is introduced providing methods for a manual annotation of meta-cluster. See man-pages and vignette for more details. * set.seed is removed from clustering routines. To obtain reproducable results with cell.process function set.seed has to set explicit before.

Changes in version 1.17.1

CHANGES * minor bugfixes and code cleaning * minor additional options for immunoClust.plot/splom

infercnv

Changes in version 1.1.4 (2019-10-29)

Fix reading of input annotations when some are only digits to be properly read as characters.
Added checks that HMM_report_by option is compatible with analysis_mode option. If not, change it automatically.
Fix reading of bayesian filtered HMM results in add_to_seurat after previous version changes to keep CNV ids and states scale.

Changes in version 1.1.3 (2019-09-16)

Fix to reload checks on HMM steps. +Added new smoothing method, ‘coordinates”, that smooths the per cell data using a window based on a base pairs distance (around 10.000.000 seems to be a good start for the window size) to the current gene. As the hspike does not model gene distances/positions on a chromosome at this time, the HMM i6 mode is not compatible with this smoothing method and an error will be returned if both try to be used together.
Added a bp distance tolerance to “merge” top CNVs that are actually the same CNV in different subclusters in add_to_seurat method.
Removed the top any type of CNV field, as it is redundant to top loss and top dupli.
Added text output of identified top CNVs as they the base pair tolerance aggregates some compared to the original HMM output.
Added an argument “up_to_step” to stop infercnv::run() after a given step.
Fix contents of @options field in infercnv_obj to store non default run time arguments in the same form as object creation arguments.
Update so that HMM predictions outputs have the analysis_mode in their name and do not get overwritten when using different modes. Can also know which pairs of file to reload together now.
Update add_to_seurat so that it checks what analysis_mode was used in the run based on the @options field to reload the matching HMM predictions or Bayesian Network filtered predictions.
Updated “subclustering” method for sample mode so that @tumor_subclusters$subclusters indices have the cell names attached to be able to map back in add_to_seurat.
Allow HMM steps to be resumed if needed even if steps 20/21 are done.

Changes in version 1.1.2 (2019-07-08)

Added method to write table of wide array of predicted features from HMM results to file or add them as meta.data to a Seurat object if one is provided.
Overhaul of save/reload system to store non default arguments and keep track of relevant options at each step when trying to reload backups. Also check for input counts matrix identity with reloaded one (hash at object creation time).
Added linking of image() option useRaster to run() and plot_cnv() to be able to enable by default, speeding up plotting significantly.

Changes in version 1.1.1 (2019-05-20)

Added method to sample an infercnv object to a given number of cells, or at a given frequency, per annotation group. This is to make it easy to plot figures where all annotations groups have the same overall height, as well as downsample very large datasets that would otherwise take too long to plot (while still running the analysis on the full data)
Added method to plot each annotation group to a different figure and combine with sampling. Mostly intended to split data for larger datasets.
Added support for output_format option within run() to link to plot_cnv() to support only writting text outputs during the analysis.

Changes in version 1.0.4 (2019-09-16)

Fix check that contig to cluster by was found when specified.
Added support to plot_cnv for cell groups with exactly 2 cells.
Fix which input file type is checked.
Made it so that plot_cnv recalculates clustering automatically if non null ref_contig argument is provided.
Fix for plot_cnv() when providing multiple ref_contigs and cluster_by_group is False.
Fix only 1/n genes being taken into account when using n ref_contig in plot_cnv.
Fix error in file creation when using multiple ref_contig and cluster_by_groups=FALSE in plot_cnv.
Bayesian filtering now preserves CNV ids in outputs

Changes in version 1.0.3 (2019-07-05)

Fix missing dendrograms in text output when drawing figures.
Fix path to save object to when splitting references.
Fix file name creation when using num_ref_groups option.
Fix reference cells indices returned from method that splits references in num_ref_groups when references are not sorted and at the beginning of the matrix.
Fix to support of data.frame as input type for counts matrix.

Changes in version 1.0.2 (2019-05-21)

Reduce peak memory usage.
Fix to subclusters definition when using a sparse matrix and a non random trees method with no references.

Changes in version 1.0.1 (2019-05-20)

Improved when the clustering is defined for groups when running in sample mode.
Fixed support for NA to be understood as an output_format value to plot_cnv() in case a user only wants to generate the text outputs and not the plot.
Fix ordering of cells and color bars on the heatmap and text outputs when cells are not sorted in the same order in the input matrix and the annotation file.
Fix to (sub)cluster definition when a group only has 1 cell.
Fix plot_cnv() to handle observations groups with only 1 cell (that can’t be hierarchically clustered), a single reference group when no references are not clusterd, and a single reference group with a single cell.

IRanges

Changes in version 2.20.0

NEW FEATURES

IPos objects now exist in 2 flavors: UnstitchedIPos and StitchedIPos IPos is now a virtual class with 2 concrete subclasses: UnstitchedIPos and StitchedIPos. In an UnstitchedIPos instance the positions are stored as an integer vector. In a StitchedIPos instance, like with old IPos instances, the positions are stored as an IRanges object where each range represents a run of consecutive positions. See ?IPos for more information. Old serialized IPos instances need to be converted to StitchedIPos instances with updateObject().
IPos objects now can hold names
The IRanges() and IPos() constructors now accept user-supplied metadata columns
Add grep(), startsWith() and endsWith() methods for CharacterList objects

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

as.data.frame(IRanges) now propagates the metadata columns
Move splitAsList() to the S4Vector package
Move S4 class “atomic” from the S4Vector package
No longer export %in% (was a leftover from an older time when the package was defining an %in% method)

DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT

After being deprecated in BioC 3.9, the following RangedData methods are now defunct: findOverlaps, rownames<-, colnames<-, columnMetadata, columnMetadata<-, c, rbind, as.env, as.data.frame, and coercion from RangedData to DataFrame.
Remove the following RangedData methods: - score, score<-, lapply, within, countOverlaps; - coercions from list, data.frame, DataTable, Rle, RleList, RleViewsList, IntegerRanges, or IntegerRangesList to RangedData. These methods were deprecated in BioC 3.8 and defunct in BioC 3.9.

BUG FIXES

Fix integer overflow issue in end() setter for IRanges objects.

IsoformSwitchAnalyzeR

Changes in version 1.7.2 (2019-10-18)

Update type: Major.
analyzeIUPred2A() for analyzing intrincially disordered regions (and binding sites therein) was introduced. To enable this the following changes were also made: * analyzeNetSurfP2() was extended to also create the idr_type column in the result * analyzeSwitchConsequences() was extended to handle idr_type. Also it was upgrated to handle large differences in IDR lengths. * The data included in the “exampleSwitchListAnalyzed” object was updated to include the result of an IUPred2A analysis (instead of the NetSurfP2 analysis) * The build in data file for analysis of NetSurfP-2 in relation to exampleSwitchListIntermediary was replaced by the corresponding data for the IUPred2A analysis. * switchPlotTranscript() (which is used by switchPlot() internally) was extended to also handle IDR types * the switchPlot() layout was re-optimied for the new annotation. * isoformSwitchAnalysisPart2() was updated to also handle IUPred2A input. * The vignette was updated accordingly.
switchPlotTranscript() (and thereby also switchPlot) now use the annotationImportance in a much nicer way. Instead of removing the annotation (which could cause problems when comparing computational analysis to visual output) it now uses annotationImportance to plot the data as layers with the most important on top - meaning no annotation is skipped.
switchPlotGeneExp() was updated to follow the condition coloring used by switchPlotIsoExp() and switchPlotIsoUsage() when used by the switchPlot() function.
Corrected a bug in switPlot() which caused the interpretation of the “increased/decreased usage” added to the plot to be the min instead of max of the supplied alphas.
Corrected a bug in analyzeSwitchConsequences() that could cause the “domain_length” consequnce type to give wrong results. Now the ‘domain_length’ test transcripts for differences in the length of overlapping domains of the same type (same hmm_name)
isoformSwitchAnalysisPart2() now also uses n=Inf to create all plots (NA have same function for backward compatability).
importRdata now ensures the order of columns in the designmatrix is always.
All functions for importing external analysis, which supports multiple files, now automatically remove duplicated interies.
The extractExpressionMatrix function was depreciated.
All function documentation was spell-checked.
Various documentation improvements.
Error message improvements.

Changes in version 1.7.1 (2019-07-19)

Update type: Minor.
Version bump due to Bioconductor release.
Updated NEWS layout in accordance with Bioconductor guidelines.
switchPlotTranscript() was extended to also indicate increased/decreased/unchanged isoform usage making interpretation easier. This also required switchPlotTranscript() and switchPlot() was updated with extra arguments to control this behaviour. The switchPlotTranscript() function was furthermore updated to also indicate significance (indated by asterisks) and size (dIF) when used alone (aka not from within switchPlots) making it a good alternative to the switchPlot.
switchPlotGeneExp(), switchPlotIsoExp(), switchPlotIsoUsage() was prettyfied and now also show the name of the gene plotted.
importRdata() and importGTF() now also supports import of RefSeq GFF files (downloaded from ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genomes/, see FAQ in vignette). This should increase ease of usage for a long range of species not in the Ensembl catalogue.
importRdata() * Now also removes non-exsisting introns from annotation even when it is supplied as a GRange (previously only done for GTF files). * No longer removes isoforms with NA as biotypes when removeTECgenes = TRUE. * Was extended to better handle gene_names when novelt transcripts are predicted. Specificallt if there are NA in the gene_name column (e.g. like done by StringTie) these are automatically assigned the same gene name as the other isoforms from the same gene_id (only for cases where a single gene_name is associated to the gene_id).
isoformSwitchTestDEXSeq() was updated to: * Better handle rare design setups that could cause an error to occure. * Now handle analysis of data with some isoforms only analyzed in a subset of comparisons
The extractSwitchSummary() was extended to also print number of switches.
A bug was fixed in extractSequence() which cased a fail when CDS sequences with multiple stop codons where annotated
A bug was fiexed which caused extractSplicingSummary() to only return the summary of splicing types with more than “minEventsForPlotting” events.
analyzeNetSurfP2() was updated to handle multiple files due to recent restrictions on the number of sequences one can upload to the webserver.
switchPlotTopSwitches() and extractTopSwitches() now uses n = Inf to to output all (although internally NA is converted to Inf for backward compatability).
subsetSwitchAnalyzeRlist() was improved to be more stable to edgecase sitiuations.
isoformToGeneExp() was improved * To be more userfriendly. * To directly support annotation stored in a GTF file (which it itself imports into R). * To directly support switchAnalyzeRlists.
analyzePFAM() was updated to be more robust to edge usecases
Improved error messages in mutliple function.
Various documentation updates.
Various stability updates.

limma

Changes in version 3.42.0

New head() and tail() methods for all limma data classes.
New unique() and subsetting methods for TestResults objects. Previously a subsetted TestResults object became an ordinary numeric matrix, but now the TestResults class is preserved. Single index subsetting is also allowed but produces a numeric vector.
roast() and mroast() now use less memory. Memory usage now remains bounded regardless of the number of rotations used. Both functions are faster than before when approx.zscore=TRUE. A new argument legacy is added to allow users to turn these improvements off if they wish to reproduce numerical results from limma 3.40.0 exactly. The default number of rotations nrot is increased from 999 to 1999. A bug has been fixed for roast() and mroast() when index is a character vector of geneids or rownames. Previously this usage failed.
Complete rewrite of zscoreT(), which is now somewhat faster and offer two new options for the normalizing transformation. The new argument method indicates which transformation is used when approx=TRUE. The default approximation method is changed from “hill” to “bailey”. zscoreT() now allows NA values when approx=TRUE and works correctly for all valid df values. Previously approx=TRUE returned NA results for df infinite or <= 0.05. A simple robust approximation from Wallace (1959) has been introduced to handle very large or very small df values. Previously approx=FALSE treated any df greater than 10000 as infinite; this threshold is now raised to 1e300.
tZScore() is slightly faster.
New argument gene.weights for fry() so as to match the arguments and behavior of mroast(). Previously gene weights could be input to fry() only through the index argument. fry’s mixed p-values now take account of gene weights. Previously gene weights were not used in fry’s mixed p-value calculation.
Add arguments block, correlation and weights to voom() and remove the ... argument.
Update the arguments of voomWithQualityWeights() to match the revisions to arrayWeights() in limma 3.40.0. Add new argument var.group.
New arguments xlab, ylab and main for plotFB(). The default plot title now includes the column name from the data object. Default for pch increased to 0.3.
plotWithHighlights and plotMD.MArrayLM now gives special treatment to the case that status is a TestResults object.
Update Yoruba case study in User’s Guide to call voom() and duplicateCorrelation() twice each instead of once.
Update Users Guide: update Rsubread reference, correct remarks about prior distribution for 1/sigma^2 in Section 13.2 and rerun the Yoruba and Pasilla case studies.
Use “RNA-seq” and “ChIP-seq” consistently in the documentation instead of “RNA-Seq” and “ChIP-Seq”.
All uses of the approx() function now set ties=list("ordered",mean), except for fitFDistRobustly() which uses ties=mean. The change was prompted by a change in R 3.6.0 whereby using the default for ties generates a warning message whenever ties are present in x. The new code gives the same results but is very slightly faster and avoids the warning message. limma now depends on R >= 3.6.0 because of this change.
Fix bug in barcodeplot() when index or index2 are character vectors.

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

Made filterTargets and createTargetWeights defunct
setMappingBiasVcf now returns a data.frame
Best practices vignette now HTML-based
Renamed normal.panel.vcf.file in setMappingBiasVcf to mapping.bias.file; in 1.18, setMappingBiasVcf will not accept a VCF anymore but requires a precomputed mapping bias RDS file.
calculateIntervalWeights now directly called by createNormalDatabase and information included in the normalDB RDS object. This function is thus deprecated.
Column gene.mean in callAlterations output now weighted by interval weights when available
Changed default of min.target.width in preprocessIntervals from 10 to 100 (#73)
replaced write.table with data.table::fwrite to automatically support producing gzipped output (requires data.table 1.12.4, #106)
Coverage.R now gzips BAM file coverage (requires data.table 1.12.4, #106)

pwrEWAS

Changes in version 0.1.0

Initial version

QDNAseq

Changes in version 1.21.6 (2019-09-25)

BUG FIXES

Link to the ‘GEM library’ tool was broken.

Changes in version 1.21.5 (2019-09-09)

BUG FIXES

plot(…, logTransform=TRUE, doSegments=TRUE) on QDNAseqSignals would position segments that were out of range incorrectly, because it forgot to take the log transform on those outliers.

Changes in version 1.21.4 (2019-09-06)

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES

Bin annotation data files are no longer downloaded automatically. They are instead part of Bioconductor annotation packages QDNAseq.hg19 and QDNAseq.mm10, which needs to be installed by the user. If not installed, an error is now produced. The reason for this change, is that the QDNAseq maintainers will no longer host QDNAseq bin annotation files online (in the cloud).

Changes in version 1.21.3 (2019-09-04)

NEW FEATURES

All functions that produce verbose output gained argument ‘verbose’. For backward compatibility, it currently defaults to ‘verbose=TRUE’ but that may be changed to ‘verbose=FALSE’ in a future release.

IMPROVEMENTS

callBins() now respects option ‘QDNAseq::verbose’ for controlling whether output from the CGHcall package should be relayed or not.
MEMORY: Utilize more memory-efficient matrixStats functions colSums2(), colMeans2(), etc.

DEPRECATION AND DEFUNCT

Argument ‘seeds’ of segmentBins() is deprecated because it did not use proper parallel random number generation (RNG). We now instead rely on future.apply::future_lapply(…, future.seed=TRUE) for this.

Changes in version 1.21.2 (2019-09-03)

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES

Package now imports the ‘future’ and ‘future.apply’ packages; previously the ‘future’ was listed as a suggested package.
Package no longer depends on BiocParallel.
binReadCounts() now uses the future framework instead of BiocParallel for parallelization.

IMPROVEMENTS

MEMORY: Avoiding data type coercions in more places by for instance making sure that vectors and matrices are initated with the values of the correct data type (instead of the default NA, which is a logical value).

SOFTWARE QUALITY

target

Changes in version 0.1.0

Submit to Bioconductor

TargetSearch

Changes in version 1.42.0

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

As announced in version 1.40.0, the graphical user interface is gone for good (i.e., defunct). The source code is available in my github repository.

NEW FEATURES

The most interesting feature is the introduction of a custom CDF-4 format which hold the same data as a normal CDF-3 (as exported by the software vendors), but allows faster read-access (specially for plotting) and compression (among other features). This is at the cost of compatibility as the CDF-4 files are unlikely to be used outsied TargetSearch
A new baseline correction method based on quantiles around a retention time window. In addition, the new CDF-4 file format allows storing of baseline-corrected values so it is not needed to recompute the baseline each time like in older TargetSearch versions.
New function to transform to nominal mass. Some GC instruments export CDF not in nominal mass format (some even export high mass accuracy). Formely, this type of files were not supported and TargetSearch would refuse to process them. Now, all types of mass accuracy are allowed, obviously at the cost of losing that accuracy.

BUG FIXES

Mostly code refactoring and house-keeping.

Made a change leading to a substantial speed-up of mergeSampleData().
Added qname to saved columns from .bam input.
Minor changes to writeTSR() and writeTSS().
Rewrite to mergeSampleData).
Improvements to loadTSSobj().
Necessary updates to the Singularity recipe to reflect the above changes.

tximeta

Changes in version 1.4.0

tximeta will now pull down RefSeq seqinfo, using the dirname() of the GTF location, and assuming some consistency in the structure of the assembly_report.txt that is located in the same directory. Needs more testing though across releases and organisms.
expanded caching of ranges to exons and genes as well. Exons in particular take a long time to build from TxDb, so this saves quite a lot of time.
new ‘addExons’ function will add exons to trancript-level summarized experiments, by replacing transcript GRanges with exon-by-transcript GRangesList. Purposely designed only for transcript-level, see note in ?addExons
tximeta now also caches the transcript ranges themselves, rather than just the TxDb. This shaves extra seconds off the tximeta() call!
add ‘skipSeqinfo’ argument, which avoids attempting to fetch chromosome information (from UCSC) if set to TRUE.

tximport

universalmotif

Changes in version 1.4.0

NEW FEATURES

scan_sequences(…, threshold.type) option: ‘logodds.abs’. Allows the exact threshold scores to be provided.
compare_motifs() option: ‘min.position.ic’. Prevent low-IC positions in an alignment from contributing to the final alignment score.
compare_motifs() option: ‘score.strat’. Instruct the function how to deal with individual column scores in an alignment. This is also replaced the old way of choosing between sum and mean via prepending an ‘M’ to the metric name. Strategies for combining column scores include: sum, arithmetic mean, geometric mean, median, Fisher Z-transform, and weighted means.
Motif comparison metrics: average log-likelihood ratio, squared Euclidean distance, Hellinger distance, Bhattacharyya coefficient, Manhattan distance, lower limit average log-likelihood ratio, weighted Euclidean distance, weighted Pearson correlation coefficient.
compare_columns() utility: Compare two 1d numeric vectors using the comparison metrics from compare_motifs().
compare_motifs() option: ‘output.report’. Generate an output report when ‘compare.to’ is provided, showing motif alignments of top matches.
get_scores() utility: Extract all possible scores from a motif.
filter_motifs(): Filter using the ‘extrainfo’ slot.
MotifComparisonAndPvalues.pdf vignette: the comparisons and P-values sections have been moved from AdvancedUsage.pdf to their own vignette. Higher order motifs, enrichment and run_meme() usage sections have been moved to SequenceSearches.pdf.

MINOR CHANGES

Removed ‘random’ shuffling method.
Using RcppThread instead of BiocParallel in several functions: compare_motifs(), create_sequences(), get_bkg(), motif_pvalue(), scan_sequences(), shuffle_sequences(). This means parallelization can occur within C++ code which is much faster than having to jump between R and C++. Currently motif_peaks(), read_motifs() and write_motifs() are the only remaining functions which offer optional BiocParallel usage.
Many performance improvements to functions relying on internal C++ code. Several internal R functions have been replaced with C++ versions.
Changed behaviour of make_DBscores() and motif comparison P-values. Re-calculated internal P-value databases.
For merge_motifs(…, use.type): now only accepts ‘PPM’.
When comparing all motifs to all motifs with any method in compare_motifs(), the diagonal entries now properly show the max/min possible similarity/distance scores.
New internal merge_motifs() implementation. This also fixes a previous bug with incorrect PPM averaging.
read_homer(): the logodds score is converted to a P-value.
motif_pvalue(): New score calculator. Exact scores are still calculated the same (but with a faster C++ function), but approximate scores are now calculated by randomly generating score distributions from size ‘k’ motif score blocks.
motif_pvalue(): Added a safety check when trying to use this function with large motifs. Will throw a warning when nrow(matrix)^k > 1e8 and reduce k accordingly before continuing.
Adjusted P-value calculation in motif_peaks() to not display Pval = 0 so easily by instead estimating a normal distribution from random peaks.
convert_type(): make sure not to leave any zeros in bkg vector when a pseudocount greater than zero is used.
enrich_motifs(): split up ‘hits’ and ‘positional’ resuts into their own data.frames.
Replaced several instances of cat() with message() for printing progress updates.
Positional tests have been removed from enrich_motifs(). See motif_peaks() for testing motif-sequence positional preferences.
In read_meme(): E-values are now additionally stored in the extrainfo slot. This is to preserve E-values smaller than the R double precision limit.
In read_transfac(): Matrix values are rounded, to prevent errors when reading in matrices with non-integers.
Update JASPAR2018_CORE_DBSCORES with new compare_motifs() methods and params.
universalmotif print() method now returns the object invisibly, instead of NULL.

BUG FIXES

read_meme() will now properly parse background letter frequencies which span more than one line.
convert_motifs() will not error-out when trying to convert a PFMatrix with a family character vector longer than one.
Fixed P-value calculation when importing HOMER motifs. Peviously it would simply assume the log threshold value was the P-value. Now motif_pvalue() is used to properly calculate a P-value.

Changes in version 1.2.1

BUG FIXES

Mispelled variable in enrich_motifs()

dsQTL

Changes in version 2.17

USER VISIBLE CHANGES

ch2locs (retrievable via dsQTL::getSNPlocs) has been changed at about 1850 locations where rs numbers had been associated with hg19 addresses; the dsQTL regions are hg18 as are all the chr2… SNP addresses. Previously the discoverable rs numbers used in the Chicago distribution from http://eqtl.uchicago.edu/dsQTL_data/GENOTYPES/ had be mapped via SNPlocs…20111119, but now they come directly from the Chicago text file.
