Changes in version 2.22.1 (2018-02-01) o Fixed some bugs. Changes in version 2.14.1 (2016-02-11) o NOISeqBIO has been modified when few replicates are available and the computation time has been drastically removed. o Gene clustering in NOISeqBIO when few replicates are available: It will be done when total number of samples is 9 or less (instead of 10 or less). o Fixed a bug in "biotype detection" plot. It failed when none of the genes in the sample had values = 0. o Corrected an error in the calculation of standard deviation of D statistic in NOISeqBIO. Changes in version 2.14.0 (2015-08-05) o Fixed a bug in "MD" plot o Fixed a bug in NOISeq-sim (i.e. noiseq function for no replicates) Changes in version 2.12.0 (2015-06-09) o New "biotype detection" plot for comparing two samples or conditions. Also a proportion test is performed to compare the abundance of a given biotype between two samples/condtions. o New functions to generate Principal Component Analysis plots from either NOISeq object or expression matrix. o New ARSyNseq function to correct batch effect or reduce noise from unknown sources when batch information is not available. o Quality Control PDF report now includes the new "biotype detection" plot and PCA. o The User's Guide has been improved and extended to include the new functionalities. o Bugs were fixed. Changes in version 2.6.0 (2014-02-24) o Fixed bug in dat() function. Now data with two samples are allowed. o dat() function was also modified so parameter "norm" is accepted for "countsbio", "lengthbias" and "GCbias" plots. Changes in version 2.4.0 (2013-11-20) o A bug in "RNA composition" plot was fixed. o The "CountsBio" barplot has been modified. o User's guide and Reference manual have been improved. o A bug in "Saturation" plot has been fixed. o Normalization function has been modified so the user may choose the possibility of not applying a length correction although the length is provided. o NOISeqBIO results now include the log fold change (log2FC). o MD plot is now available also for NOISeqBIO results and D is plotted in log-scale. o A bug in "explo.plot" function has been fixed. Changes in version 2.2.0 (2013-10-14) o New function to generate a Quality Control Report in PDF format including all the exploratory plots. o Plot to evaluate RNA composition bias has been changed. o Some bugs have been fixed. Changes in version 2.0.0 (2013-07-25) o Included the new version of NOISeq for biological replicates: NOISeqBIO o Improved the exploratory plots for the quality control of the data that now include diagnostic plots for bias detection o Included a function to filter out low count features o Fixed the readData function so it can read the chromosome information if the chromosomes are not in numeric format. o The NOISeq output includes now the biotype information, if provided to the readData function. o A new exploratory plot for differential expression results has been added to the DE.plot function, in which the distribution of differentially expressed features across chromosomes or biotypes is shown.
