About

Maintained by Van-Dung PhamFirst published 2018-03-1613 releasesCRAN page ↗

Provides a robust approach for omics data integration and disease subtyping. PINSPlus is fast and supports the analysis of large datasets with hundreds of thousands of samples and features. The software automatically determines the optimal number of clusters and then partitions the samples in a way such that the results are robust against noise and data perturbation (Nguyen et al. (2019) <DOI: 10.1093/bioinformatics/bty1049>, Nguyen et al. (2017)<DOI: 10.1101/gr.215129.116>, Nguyen et al. (2021)<DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.725133>).

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-pinsplus

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
