Trelliscope: flexibly visualize large, complex data in great detail from within the R statistical programming environment.

Jit — Tue, 21 Jan 2020 04:22:49 -0600

Trelliscope provides a way to flexibly visualize large, complex data in great detail from within the R statistical programming environment. Trelliscope is a component in the DeltaRho environment.

For those familiar with Trellis Display, faceting in ggplot, or the notion of small multiples, Trelliscope provides a scalable way to break a set of data into pieces, apply a plot method to each piece, and then arrange those plots in a grid and interactively sort, filter, and query panels of the display based on metrics of interest. With Trelliscope, we are able to create multipanel displays on data with a very large number of subsets and view them in an interactive and meaningful way.

Google Genomics

Tenzin Paul — Thu, 18 Dec 2014 11:05:42 -0600

Explore genetic variation interactively. Compare entire cohorts in seconds with SQL-like queries. Compute transition/transversion ratios, genome-wide association, allelic frequency and more.
Process big genomic data easily. Run batch analyses like principal component analysis and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium on as many samples as you like, in minutes or hours, with just a little code.
Use Google's infrastructure and big data expertise. Store one genome or a million using Google Genomics and take advantage of the same infrastructure that powers Search, Maps, YouTube, Gmail and Drive.
Support emerging global standards. Google Genomics is implementing the API defined by the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health for visualization, analysis and more. Compliant software can access Google Genomics, local servers, or any other implementation.

RAINBOWR: Reliable Association INference By Optimizing Weights with R (R package for SNP-set GWAS and multi-kernel mixed model)

Surabhi Chaudhary — Fri, 28 Feb 2020 23:27:37 -0600

RAINBOWR(Reliable Association INference By Optimizing Weights with R) is a package to perform several types of GWAS as follows.

Single-SNP GWAS with RGWAS.normal function
SNP-set (or gene set) GWAS with RGWAS.multisnp function (which tests multiple SNPs at the same time)
Check epistatic (SNP-set x SNP-set interaction) effects with RGWAS.epistasis (very slow and less reliable)

R Shiny in Life Sciences – Top 7 Dashboard Examples

Neel — Fri, 01 Apr 2022 19:05:03 -0500

R Shiny is one of the easiest ways for developers to make production-ready dashboards when speed and functionality are crucial. Shiny is approachable with a lot of documentation available, and because of this, a lot of developers/researchers with non-coding backgrounds are able to produce some impressive results. The whole ecosystem is easy to get your head around and pretty much limitless with regard to what you can do.
