Changes in version 1.2.1:

  • fix in legend for spectralMap

ADaCGH2

Changes in version 2.1.3 (2010-10-06):

  • Rmpi in “Enhances”, not “Suggests”, to allow for R CMD check in Mac and Windows.

Changes in version 2.1.2 (2010-10-04):

  • rsprng no longer in depends; L’Ecuyer as default random number generator.

  • Using R’s registration mechanism for C routines.

  • Decreased size of example to speed up R CMD check.

  • SOCK is default cluster, and Rmpi not loaded by us.

Changes in version 2.1.1 (2010-09-30):

  • Output to CGHregions and input from limma and snapCGH. Changes in functions, help, vignnette.

  • Can also use rlecuyer.

  • Works with R-2.11 (adapted to differences in “inherits”).

Changes in version 2.1.0 (2010-09-23):

  • First fully working version for BioC. Versioning changed!

affxparser

Changes in version 1.28.0 (2012-03-30):

  • The version number was bumped for the Bioconductor 2.10 release version.

Changes in version 1.27.5 (2012-03-19):

  • ROBUSTNESS: Now the native code throws R errors, instead of printing an error message to stdout/stderr and then returning null, that is translated to errors at the R level.

Changes in version 1.27.4 (2012-03-05):

  • BUG FIX: affxparser would not build on Windows with the new Rtools toolchain (Rtools 2.15.0.1915-1919).

Changes in version 1.27.3 (2011-11-18):

  • ROBUSTNESS: Added sanity checks asserting that the internal readers did indeed read something and not just returned NULL. It should be very unlikely that this occurs, but there is still a small risk that after asserting that a file exists, but before the internal Fusion SDK parsers access the file, the file has been removed.

Changes in version 1.27.1 (2011-11-01):

  • Same updates as in v1.26.1.

Changes in version 1.27.0 (2011-10-31):

  • The version number was bumped for the Bioconductor devel version.

Changes in version 1.26.4 (2012-03-06):

  • BUG FIX: affxparser would not build on Windows with the new Rtools toolchain (Rtools 2.15.0.1915-1919), which is for R (> 2.14.1), i.e. also for R v2.14.2 (but not v2.14.1). This is the same bug fix that was first done in v1.27.4.

Changes in version 1.26.2 (2011-11-16):

  • The version number was bumped by Bioconductor to trigger a build.

Changes in version 1.26.1 (2011-11-01):

  • FIX: Fixed warning on “In readBin(con, what = “integer”, size = 4, n = 1, signed = FALSE, ‘signed = FALSE’ is only valid for integers of sizes 1 and 2” that some read methods would generated.

aroma.light

Changes in version 1.24.0 (2012-03-30):

  • The version number was bumped for the Bioconductor release version.

Changes in version 1.1.7:

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

  • Removed arguments ‘adjust’ and ‘n’ from plotPeaks as it needs to retrieve the same values used in peakPloidy

  • Added option fixVAxes to plotGenome to fix vertical axes to maxRatio and minRatio

  • Fixed plotGenome so that the line from superimpose = “DNACopy” is actually a line and not a series of dots

  • If plotting only one chromosome, instead of plotting chr name, it plots chromosome position.

Changes in version 1.1.6:

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

  • Added method ‘closest’ to function peakPloidy for a “standard” normalisation

  • Fixed the ‘mode’ method

  • Internal tiding

Changes in version 1.1.5:

Changes in version 1.23.1:

  • Implemented missing function codPlotScatter() for CodelinkSet objects (accessible via codPlot(…, what = “scatter”)). The implementation reuses the plotma() function used by codPlotMA(). By default the first array is plotted against the median. Thanks to William Michels for reporting this and testing the CodelinkSet framework.

cummeRbund

Changes in version 1.1.5:

BUG FIXES

  • Fixed minor bug in database setup that caused instability with cuffdiff –no-diff argument. oFixed bug in csDendro method for CuffData objects.

Changes in version 1.1.4:

NEW FEATURES

  • Added MAplot() method to CuffData objects.

BUG FIXES

  • Finished abrupt migration to reshape2. As a result fixed a bug in which ‘cast’ was still required for several functions and could not be found. Now appropriately using ‘dcast’ or ‘acast’.

  • Fixed minor bug in CuffFeature::fpkmMatrix

Changes in version 1.1.3:

NEW FEATURES

  • getSig() has been split into two functions: getSig() now returns a vector of ids (no longer a list of vectors), and getSigTable() returns a ‘testTable’ of

  • binary values indicating whether or not a gene was significant in a particular comparison.

  • Added ability in getSig() to limit retrieval of significant genes to two provided conditions (arguments x & y). (reduces time for function call if you have a specific comparison in mind a priori)

  • When you specify x & y with getSig(), q-values are recalculated from just those selected tests to reduce impact of multiple testing correction.

  • If you do not specificy x & y getSig() will return a vector of tracking_ids for all comparisons (with appropriate MTC).

  • You can now specify an ‘alpha’ for getSig() and getSigTable() [ 0.05 by default to match cuffdiff default ] by which to filter the resulting significance calls.

  • Added csSpecificity() method: This method returns a feature-X-condition matrix (same shape as fpkmMatrix) that provides a ‘condition-specificity’ score defined as 1-(JSdist(p,q)) where p is is the density of expression (probability vector of log(FPKM+1)) of a given gene across all conditions, and q is the unit vector for that condition (ie. perfect expression in that particular condition)

  • specificity = 1.0 if the feature is expressed exclusively in that condition

  • Created csDendro() method: This method returns a object of class ‘dendrogram’ (and plots using grid) of JS distances between conditions for all genes in a CuffData, CuffGeneSet, or CuffFeatureSet object.

  • Useful for identifying relationships between conditions for subsets of features

  • New visual cues in several plot types that indicates the quantification status (‘quant_stat’ field) of a particular gene:condition. This information is useful to indicate whether or not to trust the expression values for a given gene under a specific condition, and may provide insight into outlier expression values. This feature can be disabled by setting showStatus=F.

  • csDensity() is now available for CuffFeatureSet and CuffGeneSet objects

BUG FIXES

  • Fixed bug in getGenes that may have resulted in long query lag for retrieving promoter diffData. As a result all calls to getGenes should be significantly faster.

  • CuffData fpkm argument ‘features’ now returns appropriate data.frame (includes previously un-reported data fields).

  • Replaced all instances of ‘ln_fold_change’ with the actual ‘log2_fold_change’. Values were previously log2 fold change but database headers were not updated to reflect this.

  • Fixed bug that could cause readCufflinks() to die with error when using reshape2::melt instead of reshape::melt.

NOTES

  • The structure of the underlying database has changed in this version. As a consequence, you must rebuild you cuffData.db file to use new version. readCufflinks(rebuild=T)

  • Updated vignette

  • ‘fullnames’ logical argument was added to fpkmMatrix. If True, rownames for fpkmMatrix will be a concatenation of gene_short_name and tracking_id. This has the added benefit of making row labels in csHeatmap easier to read, as well as preserving uniqueness.

  • Slight speed improvements to JSdist (noticeable when using csCluster on large feature sets).

  • ‘testTable’ argument to getSig() has been dropped in lieu of new getSigTable() method.

Changes in version 1.1.1:

BUG FIXES

  • fixed issue in which there was no graceful error handling of missing CDS or TSS data in cuffdiff output.

  • Fixed issue in which distribution test data (promoters, splicing, relCDS) were not appropriately added to objects on creation. oFixed bug that would sometimes cause csBoxplot() to throw an error when log-transforming fpkm data. Also added pseudocount argument.

  • Fixed bug that would cause diffData() to return a filtered subset of results by default.

  • Adjusted indexing of tables to improve performance on large datasets.

  • Fixed bug that caused diffData method to not be registered with CuffFeature and CuffGene objects.

  • Fixed bug that sometimes caused over-plotting of axis labels in csBarplots.

NEW FEATURES

  • added getSig method to CuffSet class for rapid retrieval of significant features from all pairwise tests (as a list of IDs).

  • By default the level is ‘genes’ but any feature level can be queried.

  • csCluster now uses Jensen-Shannon distance by default (as opposed to Euclidean)

  • Added ‘xlimits’ argument to csVolcano to constrain plot dimensions.

  • Enforced requirement in csVolcano for x and y arguments (as sample names).

NOTES

  • Changed dependency ‘reshape’ to ‘reshape2’

  • Changed the default orientation of expressionBarplot() for CuffFeatureSet objects.

  • Changed output of csCluster to a list format that includes clustering information. As a result, I created the function csClusterPlot to replace the previous default drawing behavior of csCluster. This allows for stable cluster analysis.

  • For consistency, the ‘testId’ slot for CuffDist objects was renamed to ‘idField’. This brings the CuffDist class in line with the CuffData class.

  • CuffGene and CuffGeneSet now include slots for promoter, splicing, and relCDS distribution test results.

easyRNASeq

Changes in version 1.1.10:

NEW FEATURES

  • Added a naPositionFilter extending ShortRead srFilters

BUG FIXES

  • Worked on Wade Davis case with 3 different sets of chromosome names in the three different input (reads, annotation, chromosome sizes)

  • Worked on smoother error handling when not using bam files. Again through Wade Davis example

  • Ensured that chromosome names conversion occurs whether provided with a factor or a character vector

  • extended the NAMESPACE

Changes in version 1.1.9:

BUG FIXES

  • Added an \alias{RNAseq} to ease the class documentation access; an H.Pages suggestion

  • Changed the DESCRIPTION file to make sure that the latest ShortRead (1.13.13) and BiocGenerics (0.1.11) package are required

Changes in version 1.1.8:

BUG FIXES

  • Corrected the last occurence of the deprecated matchMatrix call

  • Corrected an issue on windows raised by the parallel package. Thanks to Wade Davis for pointing that one out.

Changes in version 1.1.7:

BUG FIXES

  • Fixed the NAMESPACE and the vignette generation

Changes in version 1.1.6:

BUG FIXES

  • Thanks to Francesco Lescai, a bug was fixed. Namely I was not expecting the chromosome names in the bam files and in the chromosome name lists to be two different set with a common intersect. I always consider that one would be the subset of the other one. Now, when such situation occurs only the common set is kept and used for the calculations.

  • Herve Pages changed the findOverlaps value. It is now an object of the Hits class that does not support the matchMatrix accessor anymore. The code was adapted to the new accessor queryHits.

  • Corrected the package structure to add a vignettes sub-directory. Moved the relevant files there

Changes in version 1.1.5:

BUG FIXES

  • Removed the fitInfo method extension to the DESeq package as it as been implemented in that package

  • Reworked the plotDispersionEstimates and .normalizationDispatcher function to deal with the new fitInfo function (the information is stored in an environment rather than in a list)

Changes in version 1.1.4:

  • Package introduced in Bioconductor

EDASeq

Changes in version 1.2.0:

  • Fixed a bug in methods plotQuality and plotNtFrequency that now allow the strand information to be missing in the SAM/BAM file.

  • Fixed a bug in method biasPlot. It doesn’t require anymore that one of the column of pData is called “conditions”.

  • biasPlot method of SeqExpressionSet has now the argument “col” to specify the column of pData to use for color coding.

edgeR

Changes in version 2.6.0:

  • edgeR now depends on limma.

  • Considerable work on the User’s Guide. New case study added on Pathogen inoculated arabidopsis illustrating a two group comparison with batch effects. All the other case studies have been updated and streamlined. New section explaining why adjustments for GC content and mappability are not necessary in a differential expression context.

  • New and more intuitive column headings for topTags() output. ‘logFC’ is now the first column. Log-concentration is now replaced by log-counts-per-million (‘logCPM’). ‘PValue’ replaces ‘P.Value’. These column headings are now inserted in the table of results by exactTest() and glmLRT() instead of being modified by the show method for the TopTags object generated by topTags(). This means that the column names will be correct even when users access the fitted model objects directing instead of using the show method.

  • plotSmear() and plotMeanVar() now use logCPM instead of logConc.

  • New function glmQLFTest() provides quasi-likelihood hypothesis testing using F-tests, as an alternative to likelihood ratio tests using the chisquare distribution.

  • New functions normalizeChIPtoInput() and calcNormOffsetsforChIP() for normalization of ChIP-Seq counts relative to input control.

  • New capabilities for formal shrinkage of the logFC. exactTest() now incorporates formal shrinkage of the logFC, controlled by argument ‘prior.count.total’. predFC() provides similar shrinkage capability for glms.

  • estimateCommonDisp() and estimateGLMCommonDisp() now set the dispersion to NA when there is no replication, instead of setting the dispersion to zero. This means that users will need to set a dispersion value explicitly to use functions further down the analysis pipeline.

  • New function estimateTrendedDisp() analogous to estimateGLMTrendedDisp() but for classic edgeR.

  • The algorithms implemented in estimateTagwiseDisp() now uses fewer grid points but interpolates, similar to estimateGLMTagwiseDisp().

  • The power trend fitted by dispCoxReidPowerTrend() now includes a positive asymptote. This greatly improves the fit on real data sets. This now becomes the default method for estimateGLMTrendedDisp() when the number of genes is less than 200.

  • New user-friendly function plotBCV() displays estimated dispersions.

  • New argument target.size for thinCounts().

  • New utility functions getDispersion() and zscoreNBinom().

  • dimnames() methods for DGEExact, DGELRT and TopTags classes.

  • Function pooledVar() removed as no longer necessary.

  • Minor fixes to various functions to ensure correct results in special cases.

flowCore

Changes in version 1.21.5:

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

  • Currently the bit-wise manipulation is done within R,it can be moved to C if speed issue becomes a problem in the future.

Changes in version 1.21.1:

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

  • add TEXT segment parser in readFCStext function for FCS3 when the delimiter characters existing inside of keyword values. Note this parser require all keywords and their values to be non-empty, which conforms to FCS3 standard

GeneGroupAnalysis

Changes in version 1.1:

  • Considering on having more flexibility on the linear models that can be fitted by the Gibb’s sampler.

GeneticsPed

Changes in version 2007-09-12:

  • Added prune function for pruning/trimming the pedigree. It does not work on pedigree, but assumes a data.frame with defined structure. Adaption needed.

  • We depend on genetics package since gpLong2Wide and hwp assume that input is of genotype class.

  • Added two utility functions (gpLong2Wide and hwp) for work with gpi(). There is also a separate help page for them.

  • Internal fixes in gpi - no need to transpose inputs for Fortran call anymore - check that there are no NA values in gp and hwp

Changes in version 2007-04-25:

  • Version bump to follow BioC releases. # 0.1.4

Changes in version 2007-04-19:

  • MASS added to depends due to use of fractions() in many places in documnetation.

  • Added vignette on quantitative genetic (animal) model and model.matrix.Pedigree() functions for educational purposes.

  • Created data directory and added pedigree example Mrode2.1 and Mrode3.1.

  • Added unit tests for genetic relationship matrices that should test all related functions - mainly against Mrode’s book examples - runit.genRelMatrix.R.

  • Added arguments sort and names to inverseAdditive(), relationshipAdditive() and inbreeding().

  • Reworked core for relationshipAdditive() into vectorized form.

  • Added geneFlowT(), geneFlowTinv(), geneFlowM() and mendelianSamplingD() functions.

Changes in version 2007-04:

  • Implemented sort by pedigree information only. # 0.1.3

Changes in version 2007-03-02:

  • Registration of native routines - src/register.cc.

  • Added gpi() function. # 0.1.1

  • Temporarily removed unknown funcs, due to planned move to BioC and change to S4.

Changes in version 2006-03-29:

  • codeUnit to get internal codes for subject and ascendants if factors are used.

  • Handled unused levels in nlevels.pedigree and summary.pedigree now produces a simple summary

  • Started to implement checks in check.pedigree and friends

  • Proper factor handling

Changes in version 2006-03-16:

  • Initial version # NEWS ends here

GenomicFeatures

Changes in version 1.8:

NEW FEATURES

  • Added asBED and asGFF methods to convert a TranscriptDb to a GRanges that describes transcript structures according to either the BED or GFF format. This enables passing a TranscriptDb object to rtracklayer::export directly, when targeting GFF/BED.

GenomicRanges

Changes in version 1.8.0:

NEW FEATURES

  • Add GappedAlignmentPairs class (with accessors first(), last(), left(), right(), seqnames(), strand(), isProperPair()), and readGappedAlignmentPairs() for dealing with paired-end reads. Most of the GappedAlignments functionalities (e.g. coercion to GRangesList, “findOverlaps” and related methods, “coverage”, etc…) work on a GappedAlignmentPairs object.

  • Add encodeOverlaps,GRangesList,GRangesList,missing and related utilities flipQuery(), selectEncodingWithCompatibleStrand(), isCompatibleWithSplicing(), isCompatibleWithSkippedExons() and extractSkippedExonRanks().

  • Add ‘order.as.in.query’ arg to grglist() and rglist().

  • SummarizedExperiment gains direct access to colData columns with $, $<-, [[, and [[<- methods

  • Add map,GenomicRanges,GRangesList and map,GenomicRanges,GappedAlignments methods. These allow mapping from genome space to transcript space, and genome space to read space, respectively.

  • Add seqinfo methods (and friends) for RangedData, RangesList, and other IRanges data structures. These use metadata(x)$seqinfo.

  • Add disjointBins,GenomicRanges.

  • Add score,GRangesList and score,GenomicRanges (gets the score column like for RangedData).

  • Add RangedDataList -> GenomicRangesList coercion.

  • Add RleViewsList -> GRanges coercion.

SIGNIFICANT USER-LEVEL CHANGES

  • grglist,GappedAlignments now carries over element metadata.

  • Names are no longer forced to be unique when unlisting a GRangesList with use.names=TRUE.

  • seqnames() is now preferred over rname() on a GappedAlignments object.

  • cigarToIRangesListByAlignment() now returns a CompressedIRangesList instead of CompressedNormalIRangesList.

  • Low-level CIGAR utilities now ignore CIGAR operation P (instead of trowing an error).

  • The ‘weight’ arg in “coverage” method for GenomicRanges objects now can also be a single string naming a column in elementMetadata(x).

  • Ranges outside the sequences bounds of the underlying sequences are now accepted (with a warning) in GenomicRanges/GRangesList/GappedAlignments objects.

  • When called with ‘ignore.strand=TRUE’, the “range” and “disjoin” methods for GenomicRanges objects now behave like if they set the strand of the input to “*” before they do any computation.

  • When called with ‘ignore.strand=TRUE’, “reduce” method for GenomicRanges objects, and “union”, “intersect” and “setdiff” methods for GRanges objects now set the strand of their arguments to “*” prior to any computation.

  • No more mangling of the names when combining GRanges objects (“c” method for GRanges objects was trying to return unique names).

  • Remove isCircularWithKnownLength() generic and methods (nobody knows, uses, or needs this).

BUG FIXES

  • flank,GRangesList no longer forces ‘use.names’ to TRUE and ‘both’ to FALSE.

  • range,GenomicRanges was broken when object had no ranges

  • Fix integer overflow issue that can occur in cigarQNarrow() or cigarQNarrow() when the cigar vector is very long.

genoset

Changes in version 1.4.19:

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

  • Minor API change Rarely used (by me) method, orderedChrs, gone. It’s just chrOrder(chrNames(x)) anyway. ‘names’ on GenoSet depricated. chrNames gives universal way to get chromosome names (i.e. names, seqlevels) for GenoSet, RangedData, GRanges.

Changes in version 1.4.10:

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

  • segTable for Rle now optionally takes chrIndices table, start and stop from locData for speed. segTable for DataFrame uses this trick. Much faster. About 95% time reduction for a large dataset on a large chip.

Changes in version 1.4.9:

  • ** API Changes ** segTable on a DataFrame of Rle now has a “stack” argument to rbind the resulting list of data.frames of per-sample segments into on giant data.frame. A “Sample” column will be added to separate samples. The list of individual data.frames no longer has an “ID” column. Also, some refactoring to speed up this method.

Changes in version 1.4:

USER VISIBLE CHANGES

  • removed the system-requirement dependency from the GNU Scientific Library

  • added two additional gene-set expression summarization methods: single-sample GSEA from Barbie et al. (Nature, 2009) and a combined Z-score method similar to the one used by Lee et al. (PLos Comp Biol, 2008) via a new ‘method’ argument in the ‘gsva()’ function

  • added handling of RNA-seq expression data matrices by the GSVA method with a new ‘rnaseq’ argument in the ‘gsva()’ function

  • added a method with signature(expr=”matrix”, gset.idx.list=”GeneSetCollection”, annotation=”character”) which did not exist before. Now gsva() accepts the following pairs of data structures storing expression data and gene sets: ExpressionSet-GeneSetCollection, ExpressionSet-list, matrix-GeneSetCollection and matrix-list

BUG FIXES

  • There were problems with using the argument gene.weights in mroast(). This argument is now permitted to be of the same length as the number of probes in the data set. It is then automatically subsetted for each gene set.

  • mroast() now uses mid-p-values by default when adjusting for multiple testing.

  • neqc(), nec() and normexp.fit.control() now give user-friendly error messages when no negative control probes or no regular probes are found.

  • Submission to Bioconductor

Changes in version 1.1-3 (2012-01-05):

  • Minor bug fix in readBiclusterResults: bicluster files without any bicluster are recognized

  • Minor bug fix in readBiclusterResults: bicluster files with only one bicluster and one row/column not report error anymore (previously due to matrix dropping)

  • Minor bug fix in readBiclusterResults: feature/condition names are written in “features”/”conditions” items in the info list

  • Feature improvement in readBiclusterResults: featureNames and sampleNames are written in Parameters, so as to be used by the coerce method in the eisa package, to coerce a Biclust object into an ISAModules object

  • Methods features and conditions now have a two-step strategy: first try the info list, if failed, then try the matrix names

  • length.Biclust returns 0 if the Biclust object contains no bicluster

  • combineBiclusts support non-empty Biclust objects with empty Biclust objects, e.g. those without valid biclusters detected.

Changes in version 1.1-2 (2012-01-03):

  • Add fcFilter for feature-condition filtering

Rsamtools

Changes in version 1.8.0:

NEW FEATURES

  • Add readBamGappedAlignmentPairs() (plus related utilities findMateAlignment() and makeGappedAlignmentPairs()) to read a BAM file into a GappedAlignmentPairs object.

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

  • update samtools to github commit dc27682f70713a70d4f31bca652cf78e00757da2

  • Add ‘bitnames’ arg to bamFlagAsBitMatrix() utility.

  • scanTabix would omit variants overlapping range ends

  • scanFa would segfault on empty files or empty ids

Rsubread

Changes in version 1.6.0:

NEW FEATURES

  • Significant improvement on the exon-exon junction detection (subjunc function).

  • Calling SNPs using a simple allele fraction approach (callSNPs function) .

  • Removing duplicated reads (removeDupReads function).

RTCA

Changes in version 2009-07-13:

  • combineRTCA(list): Additional column is renamed into Plate. The vlues is evaluated from list item names. When the list has no name, an integer index beginning from 1 is used. Special attentions to list partially with names is noted in the documentation.

  • parseRTCA(file, dec=”.”,phenoData, skipWell,…): Example is added in the documentation how to import pre-configured phenoData. Details section in the documentation is re-written to describe the process of parsing.

  • RTCA-class: Experiment ID added to RTCA class

  • Makefile: add Makefile to simplify common tasks like check and install

  • plotGridEffect: takes ‘column’ instead of ‘col’ as mode parameter, and renders the mode as the title of the legend. Documentation updated.

  • plotRTCA: is removed from the package and is substituted by the plot function.

rtracklayer

Changes in version 1.15:

NEW FEATURES

  • Integrated with tabix via Rsamtools. BED and GFF export methods now generate a tabix index, if index=TRUE. Most import() methods gain a ‘which’ argument that takes advantage of tabix, when available.

  • Added wigToBigWig() function for efficient conversion of WIG to BigWig.

  • Added SeqinfoForBSGenome() and SeqinfoForUCSCGenome() for conveniently retrieving Seqinfo objects for a given genome.

  • Added support for FASTA import/export via Biostrings.

  • GTF and GVF files are now parsed as GFF.

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

  • The import/export API is now based on RTLFile objects, which wrap a file path, URL or connection. There is an RTLFile subclass for every file format. This makes it easier to extend rtracklayer (export, import) with new file types. The existing API is still supported (and even encouraged for most uses).

  • Handle CSV attributes in GFF3 using CharacterList columns.

  • BED columns thickStart/thickEnd translate to an IRanges column named “thick”. The blockStarts/Sizes/Count columns now map to a single RangesList “blocks” column.

BUG FIXES

  • Numerous fixes in the import/export methods, as a result of implementing a full unit test suite. If something was not working for you in the past, please try again.

  • Compression and connections should now work fairly uniformly across file types. (start date: 29 March, 2012)

ShortRead

Changes in version 1.13:

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

  • qa report scales adapaterContamination correctly

  • FastqSampler would rarely sample fewer than requested reads

  • FastqSampler supports outputs of >2^31 - 1 total nucleotides

  • readFastq parses records with 0 width

TargetSearch

Changes in version 1.12.0:

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES

  • New binary file format for the peak-list files, a.k.a. RI files. This speeds up metabolite searches by 5-10 fold. The old TEXT format is kept for compatibility. See method ‘fileFormat’. Also see ‘bin2text’ and ‘text2bin’ funtions.

  • New plot peak function ‘plotPeak’. The old function was renamed as plotPeakSimple. The function show also the regions in which the searches were performed to provide better quality controls.

BUG FIXES

  • Changed to check.names=TRUE in ‘read.delim’ call in functions TargetSearchGUI() and ImportLibrary(). This prevents empty column names that might produce errors in downstream functions.

VariantAnnotation

Changes in version 1.2.0:

NEW FEATURES

  • readVcf() has genome argument, can be subset on ranges or VCF elements with ScanVcfParam()

  • scanVcfHeader() returns VCFHeader class with accessors fixed, info, geno, etc.

  • writeVcf() writes out a VCF file from a VCF class
