Computations of Fisher's z-tests concerning different kinds of correlation differences. The 'diffpwr' family entails approaches to estimating statistical power via Monte Carlo simulations. Important to note, the Pearson correlation coefficient is sensitive to linear association, but also to a host of statistical issues such as univariate and bivariate outliers, range restrictions, and heteroscedasticity (e.g., Duncan & Layard, 1973 <doi:10.1093/BIOMET/60.3.551>; Wilcox, 2013 <doi:10.1016/C2010-0-67044-1>). Thus, every power analysis requires that specific statistical prerequisites are fulfilled and can be invalid if the prerequisites do not hold. To this end, the 'bootcor' family provides bootstrapping confidence intervals for the incorporated correlation difference tests.

A method for identifying pattern changes between 2
    experimental conditions in correlation networks (e.g., gene
    co-expression networks), which builds on a commonly used association
    measure, such as Pearson's correlation coefficient. This package
    includes functions to calculate correlation matrices for
    high-dimensional dataset and to test differential correlation, which
    means the changes in the correlation relationship among variables
    (e.g., genes and metabolites) between 2 experimental conditions.

Functions for comparing two data.frames against 
    each other. The core functionality is to provide a detailed breakdown of any differences 
    between two data.frames as well as providing utility functions to help narrow down the 
    source of problems and differences.

Shows you which rows have changed between two data frames with the same column structure. Useful for diffing slowly mutating data.

This is an R implementation of Fast and Scalable Learning of Sparse Changes in High-Dimensional Gaussian Graphical Model Structure (DIFFEE). The DIFFEE algorithm can be used to fast estimate the differential network between two related datasets. For instance, it can identify differential gene network from datasets of case and control. By performing data-driven network inference from two high-dimensional data sets, this tool can help users effectively translate two aggregated data blocks into knowledge of the changes among entities between two Gaussian Graphical Model. Please run demo(diffeeDemo) to learn the basic functions provided by this package.
