DAtest: a framework for choosing differential abundance or expression method
DAtest is an R package for directly comparing different statistical methods for differential abundance and expression analysis on a dataset of interest; be it data from RNA-seq, proteomics, metabolomics or a microbial marker-gene survey. A myriad of statistical methods exists for conducting these analyses, and with this tool we give the analyst an empirical foundation for choosing a method suitable for a specific dataset. The package supports categorical and quantitative variables, paired/block experimental designs, and the inclusion of covariates. It is freely available at GitHub: https://github.com/Russel88/DAtest along with detailed instructions.
