Collection and implementation of public transcriptional cancer signatures


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

signifinder is an R package for computing and exploring a compendium of tumor signatures. It allows to compute a variety of signatures coming from public literature, based on gene expression values, and return single-sample (-cell/-spot) scores. Currently, signifinder collects more than 70 distinct signatures, relating to multiple tumors and multiple cancer processes.
