However, the Bioconductor download is recommended!\n\n```{r, eval = FALSE}\n  # Install PRONE.R from github and build vignettes\n  if (!requireNamespace(\"devtools\", quietly = TRUE)){\n    install.packages(\"devtools\")\n  } \n  devtools::install_github(\"daisybio/PRONE\", build_vignettes = TRUE, \n                           dependencies = TRUE)\n  \n  # Load and attach PRONE \n  library(\"PRONE\")\n\n```\n\n\n## Workflow\n\nA six-step workflow was developed in R version 4.2.2 to evaluate the effectiveness of the previously defined normalization methods on proteomics data.\nThe workflow incorporates a set of novel functions and also integrates various methods adopted by state-of-the-art tools.\n\n\u003cimg src=\"man/figures/Workflow_PRONE.png\" width=\"700\"/\u003e\n\nFollowing the upload of the proteomics data into a SummarizedExperiment object, proteins with too many missing values can be removed, outlier samples identified, and normalization carried out.\nFurthermore, an exploratory analysis of the performance of normalization methods can be conducted.\nFinally, differential expression analysis can be executed to further evaluate the effectiveness of normalization methods.\nFor data sets with known ground truth, such as spike-in and simulated data sets, performance metrics, such as true positives (TPs), false positives (FPs), and area under the curve (AUC) values, can be computed.\nThe evaluation of DE results of real-world experiments is based on visual quality inspection, for instance, using volcano plots, and an intersection analysis of the DE proteins of different normalization methods is available.\n\n## Usage\n\nTo get familiar with the functionalities of the R package, check out the article [Getting started with PRONE](https://daisybio.github.io/PRONE/articles/PRONE.html).\n\n\n## Citation\n\nTODO\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdaisybio%2Fprone","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdaisybio%2Fprone","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdaisybio%2Fprone/lists"}
