awesome-multi-omics

A community-maintained list of software packages for multi-omics data analysis.

While many of the packages here are marketed for "omics" data (transcriptomics, proteomics, etc.), other more general terms for this type of data analysis are:

• multi-modal
• multi-table
• multi-way

The common thread among the methods listed here is that the same samples are measured across different assays. The data can be described as multiple matrices/tables with the same number of samples and varying number of features.

The repo is in the style of Sean Davis' awesome-single-cell repo for single-cell analysis methods.

Contributions welcome...

For brevity, below lists only the first author of multi-omics methods.
