+CHANGES IN VERSION 1.50

+-----------------------

+

+USER VISIBLE CHANGES

+

+  o The API has changed. The main function remains under the same name 'gsva()', but the way in which is called is different. From this release, it has three parameters only: the first is a parameter object whose class depends on the method to be used, the second is a flag to set verbosity and the third controls the parallelization of the calculations. The old way of using 'gsva()' has been deprecated, which means that during this release, the user may still use the old API, but will get a deprecation warning message. In the next release, the old way of using 'gsva()' will become defunct and prompt an error. Please check the help page of 'gsva()' for details.

+

+BUG FIXES

+

+  o Bugfix for https://github.com/rcastelo/GSVA/issues/88 to correctly deal with a GeneSetCollection object as input gene sets, when the input expression data is a SingleCellExperiment object.

+

+  o Bugfix for https://github.com/rcastelo/GSVA/issues/90 to enable working with long vectors in the calls to C code by the GSVA algorithm.

+   o Replaced fastmatch::fmatch() by IRanges::match,CharacterList-method after disscussion at https://github.com/rcastelo/GSVA/issues/39 to avoid the row names of an input expression matrix being altered by fastmatch::fmatch() adding an attribute.

+CHANGES IN VERSION 1.36

+

+USER VISIBLE CHANGES

+

+   o Improved management of parallel calculations by using the BiocParallel package. This facilitates calculating GSVA scores from gene expression data matrices with thousands of samples. See arguments 'parallel.sz' and 'BPPARAM' in the manual page of the 'gsva()' function.

+

+   o Improved implementation of the SSGSEA method ('method="ssgsea" in the call to 'gsva()') that makes calculations with this option about one order of magnitude faster. Improvement thanks to Alexey Sergushichev (https://github.com/rcastelo/GSVA/pull/15).

+

+   o The function 'gsva()' now issues a warning when one or more gene sets are singletons, i.e., they are formed by just one feature/gene.

+USER VISIBLE CHANGES

+

+    o removed the system-requirement dependency from the GNU Scientific Library

+

+    o added two additional gene-set expression summarization methods: single-sample GSEA from Barbie et al. (Nature, 2009) and a combined Z-score method similar to the one used by Lee et al. (PLos Comp Biol, 2008) via a new 'method' argument in the 'gsva()' function

+

+    o added handling of RNA-seq expression data matrices by the GSVA method with a new 'rnaseq' argument in the 'gsva()' function

+

+    o added a method with signature(expr="matrix", gset.idx.list="GeneSetCollection", annotation="character") which did not exist before. Now gsva() accepts the following pairs of data structures storing expression data and gene sets: ExpressionSet-GeneSetCollection, ExpressionSet-list, matrix-GeneSetCollection and matrix-list

+

+BUG FIXES

+

+    o matching of gene IDs from ExpressionSet objects to GeneSetCollection objects now also works with Entrez-based gene IDs in ExpressionSet objects (e.g., when annotation(eset) == "org.Hs.eg.db") by using GSEABase >= 1.17.4
