npSeq 1.1.1 – Significance Analysis of Sequencing data

npSeq 1.1.1

:: DESCRIPTION

npSeq is an R package for the significance analysis of sequencing data.  The statistic used by npSeq is exactly the same as that in SAM 4.0. The only difference is that npSeq uses symmetric cutoffs, while SAM uses asymmetric cutoffs. Therefore, for some datasets, all significant genes obtained by SAM are either all up-regulated or all down-regulated, but npSeq almost always gives significant genes that include both up-regulated genes and down-regulated genes.

fineSTRUCTURE 4.0.1 – Identify Population Structure using Dense Sequencing Data

fineSTRUCTURE 4.0.1

:: DESCRIPTION

fineSTRUCTURE is a fast and powerful algorithm for identifying population structure using dense sequencing data.  By using the output of ChromoPainter as a (nearly) sufficient summary statistic, it is able to perform model-based Bayesian clustering on large datasets, including full resequencing data, and can handle up to 1000s of individuals.

EBCall – Empirical Bayesian framework for Mutation Detection from Cancer Genome Sequencing data

EBCall

:: DESCRIPTION

EBCall (Empirical Bayesian mutation Calling) is a software package for somatic mutation detection (including InDels). EBCall uses not only paired tumor/normal sequence data of a target sample, but also multiple non-paired normal reference samples for evaluating distribution of sequencing errors, which leads to an accurate mutaiton detection even in case of low sequencing depths and low allele frequencies.

DGE-EM 1.00 – Accurate Estimation of Gene Expression Levels from DGE Sequencing Data

DGE-EM 1.00

:: DESCRIPTION

DGE-EM package can be used to infer gene expression levels from 3′-tag Digital Gene Expression (DGE) data. DGE-EM uses a novel expectation-maximization algorithm that takes into account alternative splicing isoforms and tags that map at multiple locations in the genome, and corrects for incomplete digestion and sequencing errors. Experimental results on real DGE data generated from reference RNA samples show that our algorithm outperforms commonly used estimation methods based on unique tag counting as well as estimates obtained from RNA-Seq data for the same samples. Results of a comprehensive simulation study assessing the effect of various experimental parameters suggest that further improvements in estimation accuracy could be achieved by optimizing protocol parameters such as the anchoring enzymes and digestion probability.
