R Interface to CoreArray Genomic Data Structure (GDS) files
This package provides a high-level R interface to CoreArray
Genomic Data Structure (GDS) data files, which are portable across
platforms and include hierarchical structure to store multiple scalable
array-oriented data sets with metadata information. It is suited for
large-scale datasets, especially for data which are much larger than the
available random-access memory. The gdsfmt package offers the efficient
operations specifically designed for integers with less than 8 bits, since
a single genetic/genomic variant, such like single-nucleotide polymorphism,
usually occupies fewer bits than a byte. It is also allowed to read a GDS
file in parallel with multiple R processes supported by the parallel
package.
