Overview

About

Maintained by Jiehuan Sun3 releasesCRAN page ↗

Many clustering methods have been proposed, but most of them cannot work for longitudinal gene expression data. 'BClustLonG' is a package that allows us to perform clustering analysis for longitudinal gene expression data. It adopts a linear-mixed effects framework to model the trajectory of genes over time, while clustering is jointly conducted based on the regression coefficients obtained from all genes. To account for the correlations among genes and alleviate the high dimensionality challenges, factor analysis models are adopted for the regression coefficients. The Dirichlet process prior distribution is utilized for the means of the regression coefficients to induce clustering. This package allows users to specify which variables to use for clustering (intercepts or slopes or both) and whether a factor analysis model is desired. More details about this method can be found in Jiehuan Sun, et al. (2017) doi:10.1002/sim.7374.

Install

R (source archive)Ubuntu (r2u)openSUSE (OBS)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/BClustLonG/BClustLonG_0.1.3.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "BClustLonG_0.1.3.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.1.3) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-bclustlong

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-BClustLonG

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
