Description: DepInfeR integrates two experimentally accessible input
        data matrices: the drug sensitivity profiles of cancer cell
        lines or primary tumors ex-vivo (X), and the drug affinities of
        a set of proteins (Y), to infer a matrix of molecular protein
        dependencies of the cancers (ß). DepInfeR deconvolutes the
        protein inhibition effect on the viability phenotype by using
        regularized multivariate linear regression. It assigns a
        “dependence coefficient” to each protein and each sample, and
        therefore could be used to gain a causal and accurate
        understanding of functional consequences of genomic aberrations
        in a heterogeneous disease, as well as to guide the choice of
        pharmacological intervention for a specific cancer type,
        sub-type, or an individual patient. For more information,
