csdR: Perform differential co-expression analysis

csdRR Documentation

Perform differential co-expression analysis

Description

This package provides functionality to perform differential co-expression analysis by the CSD algorithm presented by Voigt et al. 2017. The main function of the package is run_csd which compares gene expression for two conditions and returns values for C, S and D for each gene pair. Also, the underlying function run_cor_bootstrap is provided for doing correlation analysis within a condition, but is mostly for experimental and expect use only.

The function partial_argsort is aimed specifically at the task of selecting the highest values of C, S and D of the results with minimal computational overhead, but is written also to be useable for other problems of the same type.

For more details on how to approach, please read the vignette for the package or the individual manpages for the functions.
