ComplexHeatmap is an R/Bioconductor package by Zuguang Gu et al. designed to create highly flexible, complex, richly annotated heatmaps and related visualizations. It allows arranging multiple heatmaps, adding annotations, combining heatmaps, customizing colors, layouts, and integrating other plots. Often used in genomics/bioinformatics to show expression, methylation, etc., with sidebars, annotations, clustering, etc. Highly customizable layout: combining different heatmaps, arranging and splitting, dealing with multiple heatmap merges, combining with other plots etc. Integration with Shiny / interactive heatmaps via companion packages (InteractiveComplexHeatmap) to allow interactivity, etc.
Features
