CHANGES IN VERSION 1.17.2 * We provide a new function LCD_extractCohort_callPerPID() which also belongs to the LCD family and which performs the detection of signatures at cohort-wide level, but re-runs the actual computation of the exposures per-PID with only the signatures identified in the cohort-wide calling. The ovall wrapper function LCD_complex_cutoff_combined() now also calls the new function and stores the result in the returned list with item name extractCohort_callPerPID ================================ CHANGES IN VERSION 1.17.1 * Introduction of an input parameter minimumNumberOfAlterations for the functions LCD_complex_cutoff_perPID(), LCD_complex_cutoff_consensus() and LCD_complex_cutoff_combined(). If a sample has less mutations than this cutoff, a warning is issued. By default, this values is set to 25 and may be a good choice for analysis of SNV mutational signatures. For analysis of Indel mutational signatures, a better choice is 20. ================================ CHANGES IN VERSION 1.13.3 This is a stable version after several important changes. * 95% Confidence intervals for exposures to mutational signatures can be computed * Analysis of the PCAWG mutational signatures is supported, both for PCAWG SNV and PCAWG Indel signatures The vignettes have been substantially changed: * new vignettes have been written for the new features confidence intervals and Indel signatures * new vignettes were added for features already present in the package before, especially the optimal signature-specific cutoffs * the topic of stratifiec analyses of mutational signatures was taken out of the main vignette and now is described in a vignette on its own. ================================ CHANGES IN VERSION 0.99.0 + first version to be submitted to Bioconductor
