» A bioconductor package with minimalist design for plotting elegant track layers
This package is for the visualization of multi-omics data that can be integrated into any analysis pipeline in R. trackViewer can be used not only to visualize coverage and annotation tracks, but also to generate lollipop and dandelion plots that depict sparse and dense methylation/mutation/variant data to facilitate an integrative analysis of diverse datasets. In addition, the updated trackViewer (versions 1.19.27 and higher) has a web interface in addition to the R programming interface. Furthermore, with the ‘browseTracks’ function, users can generate interactive figures—that is, figures one can easily customize the features of by clicking, dragging, and typing.
