  <dc:title>Identify Differential Selection</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package diffdriver version 0.1.7</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Tests for context-dependent selection on cancer driver genes
    using somatic mutation data. The package implements the DiffDriver
    statistical framework to assess whether the strength of positive selection
    on mutations in a driver gene is associated with tumor- or individual-level
    context variables, such as clinical traits, genomic features, or immune
    microenvironment subtypes. DiffDriver estimates individual- and
    position-specific background mutation rates, models selection as a deviation
    from the background rate using functional annotations, and tests context
    effects through a latent-variable logistic model. It provides utilities for
    preparing mutation and annotation data, fitting differential-selection
    models, running gene-level association tests, summarizing candidate genes,
    and visualizing mutation patterns. The method is described in Zhou et al.
