title: 'QUBIC: An R package for qualitative biclustering in support of gene co-expression
  analyses'
version: 1.33.0
doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btw635
abstract: 'The core function of this R package is to provide the implementation of
  the well-cited and well-reviewed QUBIC algorithm, aiming to deliver an effective
  and efficient biclustering capability. This package also includes the following
  related functions: (i) a qualitative representation of the input gene expression
  data, through a well-designed discretization way considering the underlying data
  property, which can be directly used in other biclustering programs; (ii) visualization
  of identified biclusters using heatmap in support of overall expression pattern
  analysis; (iii) bicluster-based co-expression network elucidation and visualization,
  where different correlation coefficient scores between a pair of genes are provided;
  and (iv) a generalize output format of biclusters and corresponding network can
  be freely downloaded so that a user can easily do following comprehensive functional
  enrichment analysis (e.g. DAVID) and advanced network visualization (e.g. Cytoscape).'
