title: 'CellWindX: Marker Gene Analysis and Visualization for Single-Cell Data'
version: 1.0.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.CellWindX
abstract: Provides a 'Seurat'-compatible toolkit for marker gene identification, expression
  summarization, and visualization of annotated single-cell transcriptomic data. 'CellWindX'
  identifies top cell-type-enriched markers, calculates marker expression percentages
  and average expression values across cell groups, and generates publication-oriented
  dimensional reduction plots, marker heatmaps, and gene-level radar plots. The package
  includes built-in aesthetic palettes and supports both exploratory analysis and
  downstream figure preparation for single-cell atlas studies. The workflow is designed
  to complement single-cell analysis frameworks such as 'Seurat' described by Satija
  et al. (2015) <https://doi.org/10.1038/nbt.3192> and Hao et al. (2021) <https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cell.2021.04.048>,
  as well as heatmap visualization methods implemented in 'ComplexHeatmap' described
  by Gu et al. (2016) <https://doi.org/10.1093/bioinformatics/btw313>.
