Statistical tests for detecting differential distributions based on the 2-Wasserstein distance

Bioconductor version: 3.23 · Package version: 1.26.0

The package offers statistical tests based on the 2-Wasserstein distance for detecting and characterizing differences between two distributions given in the form of samples. Functions for calculating the 2-Wasserstein distance and testing for differential distributions are provided, as well as a specifically tailored test for differential expression in single-cell RNA sequencing data.
