Differential Methylation Analysis with Targeted Minimum Loss-Based Estimates of Variable Importance Measures

Bioconductor version: Release (3.6)

This package provides facilities for differential methylation analysis based on variable importance measures (VIMs), a class of statistical target parameters that arise in causal inference. The estimation and inference procedures provided are nonparametric, relying on ensemble machine learning to flexibly assess functional relationship among covariates and the outcome of interest. These tools can be applied to differential methylation at the level of CpG sites, with valid inference after multiple hypothesis testing.
