visNetwork: an R package for network visualization, using vis.js javascript library

Jit — Wed, 09 Jan 2019 11:00:32 -0600

visNetwork is an R package for network visualization, using vis.js javascript library (http://visjs.org/). All remarks and bugs are welcome on github : https://github.com/datastorm-open/visNetwork.

Features

Based on htmlwidgets, so :

compatible with shiny, R Markdown documents, and RStudio viewer

The package proposes all the features available in vis.js API, and even more with special features for R :

easy to use
custom shapes, styles, colors, sizes, …
works smooth on any modern browser for up to a few thousand nodes and edges
interactivity controls (highlight, collapsed nodes, selection, zoom, physics, movement of nodes, tooltip, events, …)
visualize rpart tree

GeneOverlap: An R package to test and visualize gene overlaps

Jit — Thu, 27 Dec 2018 19:45:52 -0600

Overlapping gene lists can reveal biological meanings and may lead to novel hypotheses. For example, histone modification is an important cellular mechanism that can pack and re-pack chromatin. By making the chromatin structure more dense or loose, the gene expression can be turned on or off. Tri-methylation on lysine 4 of histone H3 (H3K4me3) is associated with gene activation and its genome-wide enrichment can be mapped by using ChIP-seq experiments. Because of its activating role, if we overlap the genes that are bound by H3K4me3 with the genes that are highly expressed, we should expect a positive association. Similary, we can perform such kind of overlapping between the gene lists of different histone modifications with that of various expression groups and establish each histone modification’s role in gene regulation.

chromoMap-An R package for Interactive Visualization and Annotation of Chromosomes

Jit — Sat, 07 Sep 2019 10:45:31 -0500

chromoMap provides interactive, configurable and elegant graphics visualization of chromosomes or chromosomal regions allowing users to map chromosome elements (like genes,SNPs etc.) on the chromosome plot.Each chromosome is composed of loci(representing a specific range determined based on chromosome length) that, on hover, shows details about the annotations in that locus range. The plots can be saved as HTML documents that can be shared easily. In addition, you can include them in R Markdown or in R Shiny applications.

Some of the prominent features of the package are:

visualizing polyploidy simultaneously on the same plot.
annotating groups of elements as distinct colors.
creating chromosome heatmaps.
adjusting chromosome range or visualizing chromosome regions such as genes
adding labels to the plot
adding hyperlinks to each element

Github replacement !

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 26 Sep 2019 03:42:39 -0500

For a number of reasons researchers have been trying out GitLab as a replacement for for both GitHub and various continuous integration systems, and have been exploring configurations useful for model-fitting pipelines. Researchers turned one of these into an example repository that shows how to use GitLab together with the Rocker Docker images and the drake build system to reproducibly run a project pipeline, using the cacheing functionality across all three tools to make things reasonably speedy and enable both local and remote builds.

Instructions for Creating Your Own R Package

Jit — Wed, 19 Feb 2020 01:22:48 -0600

The following is a step-by-step guide to creating your own R package. Even beyond this course, youmay find this useful for storing functions you create for your own research or for editing existingR packages to suit your needs.

This guide contains three different sets of instructions. If you use RStudio, you can follow the “Ba-sic Instructions” in Section 2 which involve using RStudio’s interface.

PheWAS: R package is designed to provide an accessible interface to the phenome wide association study

BioStar — Thu, 30 Jul 2020 22:06:37 -0500

The PheWAS R package is designed to provide an accessible interface to the phenome wide association study. For a description of the methods available and some simple examples, please see the package vignette or the R documentation. For installation help, see below. ##Installing the PheWAS Package The PheWAS package can be installed using the devtools package. The following code when executed in R will get you started:

install.packages("devtools")
#It may be necessary to install required as not all package dependencies are installed by devtools:
install.packages(c("dplyr","tidyr","ggplot2","MASS","meta","ggrepel","DT"))
devtools::install_github("PheWAS/PheWAS")
library(PheWAS)

Introduction to phylogenies in R

Abhi — Wed, 13 Oct 2021 02:27:21 -0500

R phylogenetics is built on the contributed packages for phylogenetics in R, and there are many such packages. Let's begin today by installing a few critical packages, such as ape, phangorn, phytools, and geiger. To get the most recent CRAN version of these packages, you will need to have R 3.3.x installed on your computer!
