Overview

About

Maintained by David LauensteinCRAN page ↗

Enables the user to systematically identify and visualize impulse-like gene expression changes within short genomic series experiments. In order to detect such activation peaks, the gene expression is treated as a signal that propagates along an experimental axis (time, temperature or other series conditions). Peaks are selected by exhaustive identification of local maximums and subsequent filtering based on a range of controllable parameters. Moreover, the 'Biopeak' package provides a series of data exploration tools including: expression profile plots, correlation heat maps and clustering functionalities.

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/Biopeak/Biopeak_1.0.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "Biopeak_1.0.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 (1.0) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
