MADA is developed for the whole process of methylation array data analysis, which covers nine prepropressing methods (BMIQ[1], PBC[2], SWAN[3], Funnorm[4], Illumina,Noob[5], SQN[6], Dasen[7] and Raw), batch effect correction method(ComBat[8]), seven differential methylation analysis tools(DMP:Limma[9], dmpFinder[10], samr[11]), (DMR: DMRcate[12], Bumphunter[13], ProbeLasso[14], Seqlm[15]) and three downstream analysis tools(GOSEQ[16], KEGG[17], and cluster analysis). In addition, MADA provides a customization function for users to define their own workflow. Moreover, the visualization of Preprocessing, DMP, DMR and downstream analysis results is also supplied in MADA.
