Get the Same, Personal, Free 'TCP' Port over and over

An R implementation of the cross-platform, language-independent "port4me" algorithm (< https://github.com/HenrikBengtsson/port4me>), which (1) finds a free Transmission Control Protocol ('TCP') port in [1024,65535] that the user can open, (2) is designed to work in multi-user environments, (3), gives different users, different ports, (4) gives the user the same port over time with high probability, (5) gives different ports for different software tools, and (6) requires no configuration.

Progress Reporting of Common Functions via One Magic Function

The progressify() function rewrites (transpiles) calls to sequential and parallel map-reduce functions such as base::lapply(), purrr::map(), foreach::foreach(), and plyr::llply() to signal progress updates. By combining this function with R's native pipe operator, you have a straightforward way to report progress on iterative computations with minimal refactoring, e.g. 'lapply(x, fcn) |> progressify()' and 'purrr::map(x, fcn) |> progressify()'. It is compatible with the parallel-processing map-reduce packages 'future.apply', 'furrr', 'crossmap', 'foreach', 'doFuture', and 'futurize'. It also supports domain-specific packages including 'boot', 'fwb', 'lme4', 'partykit', 'sandwich', and 'SimDesign', e.g. 'boot::boot(data, stat, R) |> progressify()'.

Use Foreach to Parallelize via the Future Framework

The 'future' package provides a unifying parallelization framework for R that supports many parallel and distributed backends . The 'foreach' package provides a powerful API for iterating over an R expression in parallel. The 'doFuture' package brings the best of the two together. There are three ways to use this package. The recommended approach is to use 'y <- foreach(...) %do% { ... } |> futurize()' via the 'futurize' package (). The second alternative, which was formerly recommended, is to use 'y <- foreach(...) %dofuture% { ... }', which does not require using 'registerDoFuture()' and has many advantages over '%dopar%'. The third alternative is the traditional 'foreach' approach by registering the 'foreach' adapter 'registerDoFuture()' and so that 'y <- foreach(...) %dopar% { ... }' parallelizes with the 'future' framework.

Affymetrix SNP Probe-Summarization using Non-Negative Matrix Factorization

A summarization method to estimate allele-specific copy number signals for Affymetrix SNP microarrays using non-negative matrix factorization (NMF).

Test Suite for 'Future API' Backends

Backends implementing the 'Future' API , as defined by the 'future' package, should use the tests provided by this package to validate that they meet the minimal requirements of the 'Future' API. The tests can be performed easily from within R or from outside of R from the command line making it straightforward to include them in package tests and in Continuous Integration (CI) pipelines.

Improved Allele-Specific Copy Number of SNP Microarrays for Downstream Segmentation

The CalMaTe method calibrates preprocessed allele-specific copy number estimates (ASCNs) from DNA microarrays by controlling for single-nucleotide polymorphism-specific allelic crosstalk. The resulting ASCNs are on average more accurate, which increases the power of segmentation methods for detecting changes between copy number states in tumor studies including copy neutral loss of heterozygosity. CalMaTe applies to any ASCNs regardless of preprocessing method and microarray technology, e.g. Affymetrix and Illumina.

Analysis of Large Affymetrix Microarray Data Sets

A cross-platform R framework that facilitates processing of any number of Affymetrix microarray samples regardless of computer system. The only parameter that limits the number of chips that can be processed is the amount of available disk space. The Aroma Framework has successfully been used in studies to process tens of thousands of arrays. This package has actively been used since 2006.

An Efficient and Deterministic Method for Identifying Topological Domains in Genomes

The 'TopDom' method identifies topological domains in genomes from Hi-C sequence data (Shin et al., 2016 ). The authors published an implementation of their method as an R script (two different versions; also available in this package). This package originates from those original 'TopDom' R scripts and provides help pages adopted from the original 'TopDom' PDF documentation. It also provides a small number of bug fixes to the original code.

Convert Statistical Objects into Tidy Tibbles

Summarizes key information about statistical objects in tidy tibbles. This makes it easy to report results, create plots and consistently work with large numbers of models at once. Broom provides three verbs that each provide different types of information about a model. tidy() summarizes information about model components such as coefficients of a regression. glance() reports information about an entire model, such as goodness of fit measures like AIC and BIC. augment() adds information about individual observations to a dataset, such as fitted values or influence measures.
