In mwsill/RFpurify: Estimate tumor purity using Illumina infinium methylation data.

RFpurify

R-package to predict ABSOLUTE and ESTIMATE tumor purity using a Random Forest regression model trained on TCGA Illumina 450k DNA-methylation array data. Purity prediction functions can be applied to 450k and 850k array data preprocessed with the Bioconductor package minfi.

Install minfi and RF_purify package from GitHub

if(!require(minfi)){
  if(!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
    install.packages("BiocManager")
  BiocManager::install("minfi")
}

if(!require(devtools)) install.packages("devtools")   
library(devtools)
# prevent warnings from beeing converted to errors when calling install_github
Sys.setenv(R_REMOTES_NO_ERRORS_FROM_WARNINGS=TRUE)
install_github('mwsill/RFpurify')

Example

Install minfiData with example data

if(!require(minfiData)){
  if(!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
    install.packages("BiocManager")
  BiocManager::install("minfiData")
}
