计算分析通常会生成大量复杂的数据，这些数据很难处理并与合作者共享。需要标准方法将这些数据转换为更有用和更直观的格式。我们提出了ReportingTools，一个Bioconductor包，它可以自动识别和转换许多常见的Bioconductor包的输出为丰富的，交互式的，基于HTML的报告。报告不是通用的，而是单独设计的，以反映特定于检测结果类型的内容。报告中的表格输出可分类、过滤和搜索，并包含与上下文相关的外部数据库超链接。此外，内嵌图形是为特定的分析类型开发的，默认情况下内嵌在表行中，为基础原始数据提供有用的可视化摘要。ReportingTools非常灵活，可以使用定义良好的API为特定应用程序轻松定制报告。
It is common for computational analyses to generate large amounts of complex data that are difficult to process and share with collaborators. Standard methods are needed to transform such data into a more useful and intuitive format. We present ReportingTools, a Bioconductor package, that automatically recognizes and transforms the output of many common Bioconductor packages into rich, interactive, HTML-based reports. Reports are not generic, but have been individually designed to reflect content specific to the result type detected. Tabular output included in reports is sortable, filterable and searchable and contains context-relevant hyperlinks to external databases. Additionally, in-line graphics have been developed for specific analysis types and are embedded by default within table rows, providing a useful visual summary of underlying raw data. ReportingTools is highly flexible and reports can be easily customized for specific applications using the well-defined API.
