New Software Packages

There are 80 new software packages in this release of Bioconductor.

• AlphaMissenseR The AlphaMissense publication https://www.science.org/doi/epdf/10.1126/science.adg7492 outlines how a variant of AlphaFold / DeepMind was used to predict missense variant pathogenicity. Supporting data on Zenodo https://zenodo.org/record/10813168 include, for instance, 71M variants across hg19 and hg38 genome builds. The ‘AlphaMissense’ package allows ready access to the data, downloading individual files to DuckDB databases for exploration and integration into R and Bioconductor workflows.

• Banksy Banksy is an R package that incorporates spatial information to cluster cells in a feature space (e.g. gene expression). To incorporate spatial information, BANKSY computes the mean neighborhood expression and azimuthal Gabor filters that capture gene expression gradients. These features are combined with the cell’s own expression to embed cells in a neighbor-augmented product space which can then be clustered, allowing for accurate and spatially-aware cell typing and tissue domain segmentation.

• BERT Provides efficient batch-effect adjustment of data with missing values. BERT orders all batch effect correction to a tree of pairwise computations. BERT allows parallelization over sub-trees.

• betaHMM A novel approach utilizing a homogeneous hidden Markov model. And effectively model untransformed beta values. To identify DMCs while considering the spatial. Correlation of the adjacent CpG sites.

• bettr bettr provides a set of interactive visualization methods to explore the results of a benchmarking study, where typically more than a single performance measures are computed. The user can weight the performance measures according to their preferences. Performance measures can also be grouped and aggregated according to additional annotations.

• biocroxytest This package provides a roclet for roxygen2 that identifies and processes code blocks in your documentation marked with @longtests. These blocks should contain tests that take a long time to run and thus cannot be included in the regular test suite of the package. When you run roxygen2::roxygenise with the longtests_roclet, it will extract these long tests from your documentation and save them in a separate directory. This allows you to run these long tests separately from the rest of your tests, for example, on a continuous integration server that is set up to run long tests.

• BREW3R.r This R package provide functions that are used in the BREW3R workflow. This mainly contains a function that extend a gtf as GRanges using information from another gtf (also as GRanges). The process allows to extend gene annotation without increasing the overlap between gene ids.

• CaMutQC CaMutQC is able to filter false positive mutations generated due to technical issues, as well as to select candidate cancer mutations through a series of well-structured functions by labeling mutations with various flags. And a detailed and vivid filter report will be offered after completing a whole filtration or selection section. Also, CaMutQC integrates serveral methods and gene panels for Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB) estimation.

• CTexploreR The CTexploreR package re-defines the list of Cancer Testis/Germline (CT) genes. It is based on publicly available RNAseq databases (GTEx, CCLE and TCGA) and summarises CT genes’ main characteristics. Several visualisation functions allow to explore their expression in different types of tissues and cancer cells, or to inspect the methylation status of their promoters in normal tissues.

• cypress CYPRESS is a cell-type-specific power tool. This package aims to perform power analysis for the cell-type-specific data. It calculates FDR, FDC, and power, under various study design parameters, including but not limited to sample size, and effect size. It takes the input of a SummarizeExperimental(SE) object with observed mixture data (feature by sample matrix), and the cell-type mixture proportions (sample by cell-type matrix). It can solve the cell-type mixture proportions from the reference free panel from TOAST and conduct tests to identify cell-type-specific differential expression (csDE) genes.

• CytoMDS This package implements a low dimensional visualization of a set of cytometry samples, in order to visually assess the ‘distances’ between them. This, in turn, can greatly help the user to identify quality issues like batch effects or outlier samples, and/or check the presence of potential sample clusters that might align with the exeprimental design. The CytoMDS algorithm combines, on the one hand, the concept of Earth Mover’s Distance (EMD), a.k.a. Wasserstein metric and, on the other hand, the Multi Dimensional Scaling (MDS) algorithm for the low dimensional projection. Also, the package provides some diagnostic tools for both checking the quality of the MDS projection, as well as tools to help with the interpretation of the axes of the projection.

• Damsel Damsel provides an end to end analysis of DamID data. Damsel takes bam files from Dam-only control and fusion samples and counts the reads matching to each GATC region. edgeR is utilised to identify regions of enrichment in the fusion relative to the control. Enriched regions are combined into peaks, and are associated with nearby genes. Damsel allows for IGV style plots to be built as the results build, inspired by ggcoverage, and using the functionality and layering ability of ggplot2. Damsel also conducts gene ontology testing with bias correction through goseq, and future versions of Damsel will also incorporate motif enrichment analysis. Overall, Damsel is the first package allowing for an end to end analysis with visual capabilities. The goal of Damsel was to bring all the analysis into one place, and allow for exploratory analysis within R.

• dar Differential abundance testing in microbiome data challenges both parametric and non-parametric statistical methods, due to its sparsity, high variability and compositional nature. Microbiome-specific statistical methods often assume classical distribution models or take into account compositional specifics. These produce results that range within the specificity vs sensitivity space in such a way that type I and type II error that are difficult to ascertain in real microbiome data when a single method is used. Recently, a consensus approach based on multiple differential abundance (DA) methods was recently suggested in order to increase robustness. With dar, you can use dplyr-like pipeable sequences of DA methods and then apply different consensus strategies. In this way we can obtain more reliable results in a fast, consistent and reproducible way.

• DegCre DegCre generates associations between differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and cis-regulatory elements (CREs) based on non-parametric concordance between differential data. The user provides GRanges of DEG TSS and CRE regions with differential p-value and optionally log-fold changes and DegCre returns an annotated Hits object with associations and their calculated probabilities. Additionally, the package provides functionality for visualization and conversion to other formats.

• DeProViR Emerging infectious diseases, exemplified by the zoonotic COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2, are grave global threats. Understanding protein-protein interactions (PPIs) between host and viral proteins is essential for therapeutic targets and insights into pathogen replication and immune evasion. While experimental methods like yeast two-hybrid screening and mass spectrometry provide valuable insights, they are hindered by experimental noise and costs, yielding incomplete interaction maps. Computational models, notably DeProViR, predict PPIs from amino acid sequences, incorporating semantic information with GloVe embeddings. DeProViR employs a Siamese neural network, integrating convolutional and Bi-LSTM networks to enhance accuracy. It overcomes the limitations of feature engineering, offering an efficient means to predict host-virus interactions, which holds promise for antiviral therapies and advancing our understanding of infectious diseases.

• dinoR dinoR tests for significant differences in NOMe-seq footprints between two conditions, using genomic regions of interest (ROI) centered around a landmark, for example a transcription factor (TF) motif. This package takes NOMe-seq data (GCH methylation/protection) in the form of a Ranged Summarized Experiment as input. dinoR can be used to group sequencing fragments into 3 or 5 categories representing characteristic footprints (TF bound, nculeosome bound, open chromatin), plot the percentage of fragments in each category in a heatmap, or averaged across different ROI groups, for example, containing a common TF motif. It is designed to compare footprints between two sample groups, using edgeR’s quasi-likelihood methods on the total fragment counts per ROI, sample, and footprint category.

• epiregulon Gene regulatory networks model the underlying gene regulation hierarchies that drive gene expression and observed phenotypes. Epiregulon infers TF activity in single cells by constructing a gene regulatory network (regulons).

• MAPFX MAPFX is an end-to-end toolbox that pre-processes the raw data from MPC experiments (e.g., BioLegend’s LEGENDScreen and BD Lyoplates assays), and further imputes the ‘missing’ infinity markers in the wells without those measurements. The pipeline starts by performing background correction on raw intensities to remove the noise from electronic baseline restoration and fluorescence compensation by adapting a normal-exponential convolution model. Unwanted technical variation, from sources such as well effects, is then removed using a log-normal model with plate, column, and row factors, after which infinity markers are imputed using the informative backbone markers as predictors. The completed dataset can then be used for clustering and other statistical analyses. Additionally, MAPFX can be used to normalise data from FFC assays as well.

• methodical DNA methylation is generally considered to be associated with transcriptional silencing. However, comprehensive, genome-wide investigation of this relationship requires the evaluation of potentially millions of correlation values between the methylation of individual genomic loci and expression of associated transcripts in a relatively large numbers of samples. Methodical makes this process quick and easy while keeping a low memory footprint. It also provides a novel method for identifying regions where a number of methylation sites are consistently strongly associated with transcriptional expression. In addition, Methodical enables housing DNA methylation data from diverse sources (e.g. WGBS, RRBS and methylation arrays) with a common framework, lifting over DNA methylation data between different genome builds and creating base-resolution plots of the association between DNA methylation and transcriptional activity at transcriptional start sites.

It first estimates treatment and batch variation with latent components, then subtracts batch-associated components from the data whilst preserving biological variation of interest. PLSDA-batch is highly suitable for microbiome data as it is non-parametric, multivariate and allows for ordination and data visualisation. Combined with centered log-ratio transformation for addressing uneven library sizes and compositional structure, PLSDA-batch addresses all characteristics of microbiome data that existing correction methods have ignored so far. Two other variants are proposed for 1/ unbalanced batch x treatment designs that are commonly encountered in studies with small sample sizes, and for 2/ selection of discriminative variables amongst treatment groups to avoid overfitting in classification problems. These two variants have widened the scope of applicability of PLSDA-batch to different data settings.

Multiple vignettes help grasp characteristics of the various studies and provide example exploratory and meta-analysis of leveraging the multiple studies provided here-in.

• CytoMethIC This package provides DNA methylation-based prediction of cancer type, molecular signature and clinical outcomes. It provides convenience functions for missing value imputation, probe ID conversion, model interpretation and visualization. The package links to our models on ExperimentHub. The package currently supports HM450, EPIC and EPICv2.

• homosapienDEE2CellScore This is a data package for normalised homosapien data downloaded from DEE2. The package both downloads, normalises, and filters the data, and provides a way to access the data from a canonical store without needing local processing. This package was built as a way to generate and store canonical test data for CellScore.

• JohnsonKinaseData The packages provides position specific weight matrices (PWMs) for 303 human serine/threonine kinases originally published in Johnson et al. 2023. It includes gene annotation for each kinase PWM and PWM matching scores for a set of 85603 curated human phosphosites which can be used to map a PWM score to its percentile rank. The package also includes basic functionality to score user provided phosphosites.

• MouseAgingData The MouseAgingData package provides analysis-ready data resources from different studies focused on aging and rejuvenation in mice. The package currently provides two 10x Genomics single-cell RNA-seq datasets. The first study profiled the aging mouse brain measured across 37,089 cells (Ximerakis et al., 2019). The second study investigated parabiosis by profiling a total of 105,329 cells (Ximerakis & Holton et al., 2023). The datasets are provided as SingleCellExperiment objects and provide raw UMI counts and cell metadata.

• muleaData ExperimentHubData package for the ‘mulea’ comprehensive overrepresentation and functional enrichment analyser R package. Here we provide ontologies (gene sets) in a data.frame for 27 different organisms, ranging from Escherichia coli to human, all acquired from publicly available data sources. Each ontology is provided with multiple gene and protein identifiers. Please see the NEWS file for a list of changes in each version.

• scaeData Contains default datasets used by the Bioconductor package SingleCellAlleleExperiment. The raw FASTQ files were sourced from publicly accessible datasets provided by 10x Genomics. Subsequently, our scIGD snakemake workflow was employed to process these FASTQ files. The resulting output from scIGD constitutes to the contents of this data package.

• SubcellularSpatialData This is a data package that hosts annotated sub-cellular localised datasets from the STOmics, Xenium and CosMx platforms. Specifically, it hosts datasets analysed in the publication Bhuva et. al, 2024 titled “Library size confounds biology in spatial transcriptomics data”. Raw transcript detections are hosted and functions to convert them to SpatialExperiment objects have been implemented.

• TENxXeniumData Collection of Xenium spatial transcriptomics datasets provided by 10x Genomics, formatted into the Bioconductor classes, the SpatialExperiment or SpatialFeatureExperiment (SFE), to facilitate seamless integration into various applications, including examples, demonstrations, and tutorials. The constructed data objects include gene expression profiles, per-transcript location data, centroid, segmentation boundaries (e.g., cell or nucleus boundaries), and image.

• TransOmicsData Contains a collection of trans-omics datasets generated using various sequencing technologies such as RNA-seq, Mass spectrometry and ChIP-seq. Modalities include the bulk profiling of the phosphoproteome, proteome, transcriptome and epigenome. Data reflects the timecourses of different developmental systems from the mouse or human.

DelayedArray

                   Changes in version 0.30.0                        

NEW FEATURES

• rowsum(<DelayedMatrix>)/colsum(<DelayedMatrix>) now acknowledge the current “automatic realization backend” and “automatic BiocParallel BPPARAM”. See ‘?DelayedArray::rowsum’ for more information.

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

• Rename supportedRealizationBackends -> registeredRealizationBackends.

• Slightly modify the behavior of ‘realize(x, BACKEND=NULL)’. See https://github.com/hansenlab/minfi/issues/256

• Two important changes to matrix multiplication of DelayedMatrix objects.

  1. Now it returns an ordinary matrix by default (before this change an ordinary matrix was returned wrapped in a DelayedMatrix object). The user can change the default behavior by setting an “automatic realization backend”. See ?DelayedArray::%*% for more information.
  2. Better block processing strategy when only one of the two operands is a DelayedMatrix object (or derivative). The new strategy acknowledges the geometry of the physical chunks of the data in the object. This can make a huge difference in some cases. For example, using a subset of the “1.3 Million Brain Cell Dataset” from 10x Genomics: library(HDF5Array) library(ExperimentHub) hub <- ExperimentHub() tenx <- TENxMatrix(hub[[“EH1039”]], group=”mm10”) M <- tenx[ , 1:25000] m <- cbind(runif(ncol(M)), runif(ncol(M))) M %% m Doing ‘M %% m’ now takes 7.6s and uses 1.1Gb of memory, compared to 110s / 3.1Gb before this improvement. Furthermore, the new strategy operates in linear time and at constant memory: with DelayedArray with DelayedArray ncol(M) 0.29.2 < 0.29.2 ——- —————– —————– 12500 4.3s / 1.1Gb 32s / 2.1Gb 25000 7.6s / 1.1Gb 110s / 3.1Gb 50000 13.4s / 1.1Gb 495s / 5.6Gb 100000 24.0s / 1.2Gg 2409s / 9.1Gb Note that the new strategy is implemented in internal helpers DelayedArray:::BLOCK_mult_Lgrid() and DelayedArray:::BLOCK_mult_Rgrid(). When the two operands are DelayedMatrix objects, the old strategy (which is implemented in DelayedArray:::.super_BLOCK_mult()) is still used.

DelayedMatrixStats

                    Changes in version 1.25

• Fix from I-Hsuan Lin for the glmGamPoi dispersion estimation where the wrong indexing of the fitted mean matrix was used, which caused a slowdown.

• Fix from Rasmus Henningsson where the Cook’s distances for the LRT were computed using a rough estimate of the mean, rather than the one from the GLM estimates of the full model. Now Cook’s distances for Wald and LRT should be consistent.

dittoSeq

                    Changes in version 1.16                         

• Feature Extensions:
  1. Multi-modality functionality: To support visualization of markers from multiple modalities in the same plot, e.g. gene expression by RNA and protein capture by ADT, the mechanics of ‘assay’, ‘slot’, and ‘swap.rownames’ inputs have been expanded, although defaults are unchanged. See the ‘?GeneTargeting’ documentation page for details. For the standard Seurat CITEseq case, set ‘assay = c(“RNA”, “ADT”)’.
  2. ‘dittoDotPlot()’ vars-categories: Added support for categorization of markers, as well as for x and y axes swapping.
• Provide ‘vars’ as a named list to group markers (list element values) into categories (list element names).
• New input ‘vars.dir’ controls which axis is used for markers (“x” by default, or “y”).
• New boolean inputs ‘categories.theme.adjust’ or ‘categories.split.adjust’ can be used to turn off associated automated additions to the ‘theme’ input or ‘split.adjust’ input as well as faceting mechanics, respectively.
  1. ‘dittoDotPlot()’ 3-color scaling: Added support for injecting a midpoint color to the color scale via 2 new inputs.
• New input ‘mid.color’ acts as the switch, and can be set to the specific strings “ryb”, “rwb”, or “rgb” (g for gray here) for a single-point quick update to use corresponding ColorBrewer inspired scales (effectively updating ‘min.color’ and ‘max.color’ as well). ‘mid.color’ can alternatively be given a color directly for more fine-grain control of colors.
• New input ‘mid’ controls the data value at which ‘mid.color’ will be used in the scale.
  1. Additional data representation controls for all ‘dittoPlot()’-style plotters, which includes ‘dittoFreqPlot()’:
• New input ‘boxplot.outlier.size’ allows control of the outlier shape’s size for “boxplot” representations.
• New input ‘vlnplot.quantiles’ allows addition of lines at requested data quantiles for “vlnplot” representations.
  1. Added a new built in ‘color.method’ style for ‘dittoScatterHex()’ and ‘dittoDimHex()’ plotters:
• When ‘color.var’ targets discrete data, giving ‘color.method = “prop.<value>”’, where <value> is an actual data level of ‘color.var’-data, will set coloring to represent the proportion of <value> among the ‘color.var’-data of each bin.
  1. New input ‘labels.repel.adjust’ allows finer control of the ‘do.label’ plot addition, via input pass-through to the geom functions underlying labeling. This affects ‘dittoDimPlot()’, ‘dittoScatterPlot()’, ‘dittoDimHex()’, and ‘dittoScatterHex() functions.
• Bug Fixes:
  1. ‘dittoHeatmap()’: Fixed a bug which blocked provision of ‘annotation_row’ and ‘annotation_colors’ inputs to ‘dittoHeatmap()’ without also generating column annotations via either ‘annot.by’ or direct ‘annotation_col’ provision.
• Deprecation:
  1. Completed deprecation of ‘dittoHeatmap()’s ‘highlight.genes’ input via removal from the function.
• Dependency Upkeep (generally invisible to users):
  1. ggplot-v3: Replaced all calls to the deprecated ‘aes_string()’ function with calls to the standard ‘aes()’ function. In cases where mappings are successively built internally to accommodate customization or flexibility, ‘modifyList()’ usage replaces the previous simple ‘list’ and ‘do.call()’ management.
  2. Seurat-v5: When the user’s Seurat package version is 5.0 or higher, conditional code switches expression data retrieval from a call to the reportedly superseded ‘GetAssayData()’ function to the newly supported ‘SeuratObj[[<assay>]][<slot>]’ syntax.

DMRcate

                    Changes in version 3.0.0                        

• Full utility for EPICv2 implemented. DMRs can now be called from the new Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC v2.0 BeadChip same as the usual pipeline, save for replicate probe filtering (mandatory) and remapping of cross-hybridising probes (optional).

• Annotation package EPICv2manifest is used as a backend for cpg.annotate().

• A new function, rmPosReps(), gives multiple user options for filtering replicate probes mapping to the same CpG site. The mean can be taken, or, based on Peters et al. (2024) (see documentation), the probe that is most precise or sensitive to methylation change may be selected.

• Many thanks to Braydon Meyer and Ruth Pidsley for constructive input and beta testing.

BUG FIXES AND MINOR IMPROVEMENTS

• Added legacy=TRUE for glmQLFit() function from edgeR to maintain behavior equivalent to results with Bioconductor 3.16, rather than using the new method of adjustment for small counts from edgeR that was introduced in Bioconductor 3.18 (legacy = FALSE by default). Changes to the glmQLFit function in edgeR seem to be causing slight changes to dispersion results even with legacy=TRUE.

fenr

                   Changes in version 1.0.10                        

• Due to recurring issues with build and check on Bioconductor’s machines, I have removed all database downloads from the vignette. Any glitch in the GO server, or simply an internet problem would cause the vignette build to crash. The GO-term information is now attached as data and loaded in the vignette.
• Made sure the package passes BUILD and CHECK with no internet connection.

• Correction in vignette: using yeast genome for topGO, instead of human (somehow it was not applied in 1.0.5).

                    Changes in version 1.0.9                        
  

• Changed the way assert_url_path() handles some remote files - it turns out every time it was called, the entire file was unnecessary downloaded, leading to duplication. Now we only assert top directories. Should speed things up!

• Increased default timeout to 30 s.

                    Changes in version 1.0.8

• Improved error handling with unresponsive servers - timeouts are now handled gracefully

                    Changes in version 1.0.6                        
  

• Changed the Ensembl mapping file downloaded from Reactome to “Physical entity” mapping, as it contains gene symbols, in addition to the Ensembl IDs.
• Changed the name of GAF column DB Object Synonym from gene_synonym to gene_id for consistency with other methods.
• Corrected Reactome test as it failed with multiple gene symbols per gene id.

• Replaced biomaRt with a single RESTful XML call; as biomaRt is used only once to obtain GO terms, this replacement reduced dependency footprint of the package

                    Changes in version 1.0.5                        
  

• Bug fix: if feature id - term id mapping is not unique (which can happen), features are duplicated in counting; fixed by dplyr::distinct() on mapping
• Correction in vignette: using yeast genome for topGO, instead of human.

• Improving test coverage

                    Changes in version 1.0.4

                    Changes in version 1.0.1                        
  

• First update after Bioconductor release
• Implemented changes to prevent the package from build/check fail, if one of the remote servers is not responding
• Moved from httr to httr2
• Tests and examples now generate warnings in case of server failure
• Added tests for behaviour in case of a non-responsive server
• Extended test coverage to 100%, except for the interactive example

GSVA

                    Changes in version 1.52                         

USER VISIBLE CHANGES

• Moved old API from deprecated to defunct; see vignette and help pages for examples on how to use the new API.

• Documentation fixes.

• Gene/feature filtering is not based anymore on floating point arithmetic, but on comparing minimum and maximum values. In the case of expression data stored in dgCMatrix objects, this criterion applies to non-zero values only.

• Parameter objects have nicer show methods.

• Resulting enrichment score matrices are now always dense.

• Added a first version of the support to SpatialExperiment objects. At the moment, only GSVA scores are calculated without using spatial coordinates information.

• When expression data is stored in an input sparse matrix of class dgCMatrix, now it is handled as such a sparse matrix as much as possible to reduce memory consumption.

• Added geneSets() and geneSetSizes() methods that allow one to retrieve, respectively, the filtered collection of gene sets and their sizes from either the parameter object or the resulting object output by the gsva() function. This allows the user to more easily give this information to analysis pipelines that exploit it, such as limma-trend; see the vignette for an example.

• Added functions readGMT() and deduplicateGeneSets() to read GMT files, handling the case when the file contains gene sets with duplicated names; see the corresponding help pages for more information.

• The underlying code of the ssGSEA method has been optimized after discussion on https://github.com/rcastelo/GSVA/issues/71 and now it runs one order of magnitude faster and consumes one order of magnitude less memory.

BUG FIXES

• Bugfix on accessing the assay names of a SingleCellExperiment object from the ‘gsva()’ function.

• Bugfix on a rare combination of input parameter for gsvaParam().

hca

                    Changes in version 1.12

HDF5Array

                   Changes in version 1.32.0                        

NEW FEATURES

• Some light refactoring of the HDF5 dump management utilities:
  • All the settings controlled by the get/setHDF5Dump*() functions are now formally treated as global options (i.e. they’re stored in the global .Options vector). The benefit is that the settings will always get passed to the workers in the context of parallel evaluation, even when using a parallel back-end like BiocParallel::SnowParam. In other words, all the workers are now guaranteed to use the same settings as the main R process.
  • In addition, getHDF5DumpFile() was further modified to make sure that it will generate unique “automatique dump files” across workers.

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

• Change ‘with.dimnames’ default to TRUE (was FALSE) in writeHDF5Array().

BUG FIXES

• Make sure that chunkdim(x) on a TENxRealizationSink, CSC_H5SparseMatrixSeed, or CSR_H5SparseMatrixSeed object ‘x’ always returns dimensions that are at most dim(x), even when ‘x’ has 0 rows and/or columns.

• The default settings for the small.n and min.span arguments of chooseLowessSpan() have been increased, increasing the chosen span value.

• New argument adaptive.span for voom(). If TRUE, then chooseLowessSpan() is used to select an optimal span value depending on the number of genes, same as is done for vooma(), voomaByGroup() and voomaLmFit().

• The plot information saved by voom() when save.plot=TRUE now includes pch and cex plotting character settings.

• The default span set by vooma() is increased slightly to the value given by chooseLowessSpan(ngenes, small.n=50, min.span=0.3, power=1/3). A new argument legacy.span had been added to optionally restore the old default settings for span for users who want backward compatibility.

• vooma() argument covariate renamed to predictor.

• vooma() has been revised in several other ways to match the behavior of voom() more closely. The order of arguments has been adjusted to match voom() and lmFit(). A new argument save.plot has been added similar to the same argument for voom(). Changes to have also been made to the title and xlab for the variance trend plot when predictor is non-NULL.

• New function voomaLmFit() with the same functionality as vooma() but which automates the estimation of sample weights and intrablock correlation from vooma(). It produces an MArrayLM fit object instead of an EList object. It is the analogous to edgeR::voomLmFit() but for continuous microarray-like data.

• Edits to the help pages for decideTests(), voom(), voomWithQualityWeights(), vooma() and “11RNAseq”. Example added to the vooma() help page.

• Add RNA-seq to package description.

• This version contains the newly implemented changes as a response to the Bioconductor review. In brief, this includes:

• renaming the functions (and parameters) to a more consistent style
• reduction of the dependencies and runtime of checks/tests
• more details on the exported data objects, and on the outputs (detailed in the vignette)
• better structure for the vignette with cross-references among sections
• modularization of some functions to avoid repetitive code
• implementation of an API which is already framework-agnostic, to later accommodate e.g. edgeR/limma. Mainly, this implies the renaming of the dds to a more generic de_container, whereas the res_de parameter stays constant.

NanoMethViz

                    Changes in version 3.0.0                        

• Breaking change to smoothing strategy in plot_gene(), plot_region(), and plot_granges() to use weighted moving mean instead of loess. This deprecates the span argument in favour of smoothing_window which is defaulted to 2000 bases.
• Smoothing for various plotting functions was previously performed using loess smoothing, this performed locally weighted linear estimation to create a smoothed line, the span argument controlled the proportion of data used in this smoothing. This parameter was difficult to tune because under a fixed span, the smoothed line became flatter as the plot region grew larger. Internally, NanoMethViz dynamically calculated a span that changed inversely proportional to the width of the plotting region, decreasing the span as the plot region grew. However the calculated span was invisible to users, and it unintuitive to users how to set a span to change the appearance of the plot.
• Changing the smoothing method to a weighted rolling mean lead to the new smoothing_window argument which represents the window size in bases from which data is used for smoothing around each point. This serves the same purpose as the dynamic calculation done previously, but is set more explicitly and should be more intuitive for users. The default is always 2000, and can be increased to increase smoothness and decreased to decrease smoothness.
• Breaking change to the appearance of plot_gene() plots, previously the isoform annotation would be restricted to only the gene of interest. It is now changed to follow the same behaviour as plot_region() whereby all isoforms in the region are plotted.
• Breaking change to the default plotting options for plot_region(), plot_gene() and plot_grange() to plot heatmap by default.
• Possible breaking change to query_methy(simplify = FALSE), it will now return a list that is the same length as the number of regions queried, where it previously returned nothing if a particular sequence was missing from the tabix.
• Added gene_anno argument to plot_region() and plot_granges() to control whether gene annotation is plotted.
• Added plot_violin() function for creating violin plots for samples over specific regions.
• Added check to remove hard-clipped reads because they may not have matching mod strings.
• Changed gene annotation to always put label on visible isoforms, previously labels are plotted at the center of isoform.
• Changed the order of columns when querying from ModBam to be the same as when querying from Tabix, with readname at the end instead of being the second column.
• Fixed memory leak in bam parsing due to out of bounds access.
• Fixed crash when CIGAR doesn’t match length of SEQ.

rhdf5

                   Changes in version 2.48.0                        

CHANGES

• R complex types can now be written to HDF5. These will be stored as a compound datatype with two elements (r & i) representing the real and imaginary parts.

• Functions H5Screate_simple and H5Sset_extent_simple now accept numeric values to the dim and maxdim arguments, allowing the creation of HDF5 dataspaces larger than R’s maximum integer value. (Thanks to @hpages for reporting this and providing a patch https://github.com/grimbough/rhdf5/pull/140).

• Messages about the presence of INT_MIN in datasets created outside of rhdf5, and how R will convert them to NA have been moved from H5Dread to the high-level h5read function. (See https://github.com/LTLA/scRNAseq/issues/44 for more details).

Bug fixes

• Corrected an issue where the function prototype for _h5fileLock() differed from the actual implementation.

• Addressed a bug where fixed length string attributes would be one character shorter than they should be. Backported to rhdf5 2.46.1. (Thanks to Aaron Lun @LTLA for reporting this https://github.com/grimbough/rhdf5/issues/132).

• Fixed an issue where zero length datasets of uint32, int64 or uint64 datatypes could not be read. This would fail with an error message saying there was not enough memory. Backported to rhdf5 2.46.1. (Thanks to Aaron Lun @LTLA for reporting this https://github.com/grimbough/rhdf5/issues/134).

rhdf5filters

                   Changes in version 1.16.0

                    Changes in version 1.26                         

Bug fixes

• Updated parts of the bundled HDF5 configure scripts (config.guess & config.sub) which were very old and didn’t recognise Apple arm64 systems when running R installed via conda. (Thanks to @eyalbenda for reporting, https://github.com/grimbough/Rhdf5lib/issues/54) Backported to Rhdf5lib version 1.24.2

• The configure script has been updated to build from source on Windows/aarch64 architecture, rather than trying to use the unsuitable pre-compiled Windows x64 binaries. Thanks to Tomas Kalibera for the patch.

                   Changes in version 0.99.0                        
  

• The package is defining a S4 class that is extending the SingleCellExperiment class. The multi-layer data structure integrates data for immune genes at allele and functional level.

• Workflow: To be able to generate a SingleCellAlleleExperiment object the data has to be generated by the connected workflow single-cell ImmunoGenomic Diversity (scIGD) which performs allele typing and quantification of genes and typed alleles. Use the read_allele_counts() function to read in the data and generate an SCAE object. This function also offers parameters to perform filtering on the data, as well as visualize the filtering step in a so called knee plot.

SparseArray

                    Changes in version 1.4.0                        

NEW FEATURES

• The following operation are now multithreaded (via OpenMP):
  • SparseMatrix multiplication and crossprod()
  • the matrixStats methods for SparseMatrix objects See ?set_SparseArray_nthread for more information.
• Define some of the basic coercion methods that used to be defined in the Matrix package but that the lazy Matrix maintainers have decided to deprecate in Matrix 1.7-0 (e.g. coercion from matrix to dgRMatrix).

BUG FIXES

• Fix aperm(<SVT_SparseArray>) when inner dimensions are not permuted See https://github.com/Bioconductor/SparseArray/issues/6

• Fix long-standing bug in C function _dotprod_leaf_vector_and_double_col(). In some circumstances the function was reading beyond a C array. Observed effects varied from no observed effects (on Linux) to breaking crossprod() unit tests on arm64 Mac (consistently), on Windows (sporadically), and also probably on PowerPC (or possibly a crash sometimes on this platform. See https://github.com/Bioconductor/SparseArray/issues/2

sparseMatrixStats

                    Changes in version 1.15                         

• Throw error if length of ‘center’ in colVars, colSds, colMads (and corrresponding row-functions) does not match size of ‘x’. This behavior was never supported by sparseMatrixStats and previously could return incorrect results. This change matches the upcoming behavior of matrixStats (https://github.com/HenrikBengtsson/matrixStats/issues/254).

• Changed name EBImage to ExtImage to reduce confusion
• Bug fixes on image affine transformation

• Exporting some util functions: aggBboxes, getPixelSize, and imageIDs

                    Changes in version 1.5.2

Changes in 1.13.7

• Move generics backendBpparam(), backendParallelFactor() and supportsSetBackend() to ProtGenerics. Required ProtGenerics version 1.35.4 or higher.

Changes in 1.13.6

• Add filterRanges() and filterValues() functions to allow filtering of a Spectra object based on ranges or similarities of any existing spectraData variables.

Changes in 1.13.5

• Move generics to ProtGenerics. Requires ProtGenerics version 1.35.3.

Changes in 1.13.4

• Add entropy and nentropy functions to allow to calculate the (normalized) entropy for each spectrum.

Changes in 1.13.3

• Fix issue in setBackend that might cause chunk-wise processing to be not run.

Changes in 1.13.2

• Add possibility to enable and perform chunk-wise (parallel) processing to Spectra: add functions processingChunkSize, backendParallelFactor and processingChunkFactor to set or get definition of chunks for parallel processing. All functions working on peaks data use this mechanism which is implemented in the internal .peaksapply function. The Spectra object gains a new slot “processingChunkSize” that is used to define the size of the processing chunks for the Spectra. See also issue #304. This ensures processing also of very large data sets.

Changes in 1.13.1

• Fix issue with bin function (see issue #302). Addition of zero.rm parameter to prevent creation of empty bins.

SQLDataFrame

                   Changes in version 1.17.1                        

• There is a total overhaul of the package implementation. It now defines a 1-dimension DelayedArray called SQLColumnVector to be the basic element which can sit inside a normal DataFrame for delayed operation on-disk. It also defines SQLDataFrame to represent a SQL table (with selected columns), which will be fully file-backed so no data is loaded into memory until requested. This allows uses to represent large datasets in limited memory. SQLDataFrame inherites from DataFrame so it can be used anywhere in Bioconductor’s ecosystem that accepts DataFrame, such as SummarizedExperiment.

• SQLDataFrame is primarily useful for indicating that the in-memory representation is consistent with the underlying SQL file. It supports all the usual methods for a DataFrame, except that the data is kept on file and referenced as needed. However, only some operations can preserve the SQLDataFrame, such as column subsetting and some cbinding operations. Most operations that add or change data (e.g., filter for row subsetting, mutate for new/modify columns) would collapse to a regular DFrame with SQLColumnVectors before applying the operation. They are still file-backed but lack the guarantee of file consistency. The fallback to DFrame ensures that a SQLDataFrame is interoperable with other Bioconductor data structures that need to perform arbitrary DataFrame operations.

             Changes in version 1.17.0 (2019-10-01)

scRNAseq

                   Changes in version 2.18.0                        

• Switched to the ArtifactDB representations for the underlying files. This uses language-agnostic formats (e.g., HDF5, JSON) instead of RDS files to store the various parts of each SingleCellExperiment. The user experience should be more or less the same as the datasets are indistinguishable once loaded into memory.

• Added the fetchDataset, to create SingleCellExperiment objects from the ArtifactDB file representations. This uses the alabaster.base package to do the loading, with some optional realization of the assays into memory. Advanced users can achieve faster loading times by keeping the assays as file-backed matrices.

• Introduced saveDataset and related functions to facilitate user uploads of their own datasets. This is accompanied by some step-by-step instructions in the vignette, plus some maintainer instructions in the README.

• Added searchDatasets to perform text searches on the metadata for each dataset, using the SQLite database compiled from the gypsum backend where the files are stored.

• Updated some datasets to reflect upstream changes (e.g., in ArrayExpress). Currently, this affects mostly SegerstolpePancreasData, where ArrayExpress decided to change the names and contents of various column annotations.

• Soft-deprecation of some redundant pieces of information in each dataset. Some examples are the column names of the Zilionis data, which were not unique and had no meaning; or the symbols of the rowData in the Segerstolpe data, which were redundant with the row names. These changes will only take effect when fetchDataset is used directly; the per-dataset getter functions have appropriate back-compatibility patches to restore this information.

• All getters now have a legacy= option to pull RDS files from ExperimentHub instead of the new formats from gypsum.

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

• vis_gene() now has a multi_gene_method argument which provides 3 methods for combining multiple continuous variables: z_score, pca, and sparsity. These options can now be used with run_app() (the interactive websites). These methods are further illustrated and documented in a new vignette available at https://research.libd.org/spatialLIBD/articles/multi_gene_plots.html. This work was contributed by @Nick-Eagles.
