fix check issues; minor documentation, remove timeOmics.simdata.R documentation which produce: Error in match(x, table, nomatch = 0L) : cannot get a slot (“slots”) from an object of type “NULL”)

timeOmics

timeOmics is a generic data-driven framework to integrate multi-Omics longitudinal data (A.) measured on the same biological samples and select key temporal features with strong associations within the same sample group.

The main steps of timeOmics are:

a pre-processing step (B.) Normalize and filter low-expressed features, except those not varying over time,
a modelling step (C.) Capture inter-individual variability in biological/technical replicates and accommodate heterogeneous experimental designs,
a clustering step (D.) Group features with the same expression profile over time. Feature selection step can also be used to identify a signature per cluster,
a post-hoc validation step (E.) Ensure clustering quality.

timeOmics can be applied on both single-Omic or multi-Omics experimental design.
