Custom R charts coming to Excel !

Surabhi Chaudhary — Sat, 12 May 2018 07:30:28 -0500

This week at the BUILD conference, Microsoft announced that Power BI custom visuals will soon be available as charts with Excel. You'll be able to choose a range of data within an Excel workbook, and pass those data to one of the built-in Power BI custom visuals, or one you've created yourself using the API.

Since you can create Power BI custom visuals using R, that means you'll be able to design a custom R-based chart, and make it available to people using Excel — even if they don't know how to use R themselves. There also many pre-defined custom visuals available, including some familiar R charts like decision trees, calendar heatmaps, and hexbin scatterplots.

For more details on how you'll be able to use custom R visuals in Excel, check out the blog post linked below.

MetaPlotR: a Perl/R pipeline for plotting metagenes of nucleotide modifications and other transcriptomic sites

Neel — Mon, 05 Nov 2018 08:12:45 -0600

An increasing number of studies are mapping protein binding and nucleotide modifications sites throughout the transcriptome. Often, these sites cluster in certain regions of the transcript, giving clues to their function. Hence, it is informative to summarize where in the transcript these sites occur. A metagene is a simple and effective tool for visualizing the distribution of sites along a simplified transcript model. In this work, we introduce MetaPlotR, a Perl/R pipeline for creating metagene plots.

Retrieving Taxonomic Information with R

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 29 Aug 2019 01:38:39 -0500

This vignette will introduce users to the retrieval of taxonomic information with myTAI. The taxonomy() function implemented in myTAI relies on the powerful package taxize. Nevertheless, taxonomic information retrieval has been customized for the myTAI standard and for organism specific information retrieval.

Specifically, the taxonomy() function implemented in myTAI can be used to classify genomes according to phylogenetic classification into Phylostrata (Phylostratigraphy) or to retrieve species specific taxonomic information when performing Divergence Stratigraphy (see Introduction for details).

‘dockr’: the R container

Jit — Mon, 23 Dec 2019 09:56:49 -0600

dockr 0.8.6 is now available on CRAN. dockr is a minimal toolkit to build a lightweight Docker container image for your R package, in which the package itself is available. The Docker image seeks to mirror your R session as close as possible with respect to R specific dependencies. Both dependencies on CRAN R packages as well as local non-CRAN R packages will be included in the Docker container image.

If you want to know, how Docker works, and why you should consider using Docker, please take a look at the Docker website.
