About this project
Description from the program archive
<h3>TumorComparer, updated version</h3> <p>The TumorComparer is a computational method for the comparison of different cancer types with cancer cell lines by their cellular profile. This comparison allows finding the closest cell lines for a selected cancer type by molecular profile as well as to detect outliers.</p> <p>The main objectives of the project are:</p> <ul> <li>Expand the package to include new data types</li> <li>Create patient to patient similarity examples on R shiny based platform</li> <li>Provide a network visualization for correlated samples and cell lines</li> </ul> <p>Further updates for the package are:</p> <ul> <li>Implement a function to perform comparison for separate gene sets and make the graphical interface of the function for shiny application</li> <li>Update R shiny application to have better error handling, improved event observers for optimal app performance, and interactive documentation</li> </ul> <p>Finally, an updated version of the package will be capable to analyze new omics data types as well as perform comparisons for separate gene sets. R shiny application will be more optimized and user-friendly.</p>
