Release Lineage

Entered 3.16 · Nov 2, 2022

Current · Requires R 4.6

1.0 In 8 of 49 releases 3.23

Description

Provide functions for performing abundance and compositional based binning on metagenomic samples, directly from FASTA or FASTQ files. Functions are implemented in Java and called via rJava. Parallel implementation that operates directly on input FASTA/FASTQ files for fast execution. Inputs may be file paths or Biostrings/ShortRead sequence objects; results are returned as a MetabinResult S4 object wrapping cluster assignments, algorithm parameters, and input metadata.
