PolySTest: Detection of differentially regulated features. Combined statistical testing for data with few replicates and missing values


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

The complexity of high-throughput quantitative omics experiments often leads to low replicates numbers and many missing values. We implemented a new test to simultaneously consider missing values and quantitative changes, which we combined with well-performing statistical tests for high confidence detection of differentially regulated features. The package contains functions to run the test and to visualize the results.
