Iinger for proteomics data

[jwang-lilly]

Hi, I came across R linger when looking for modern R package for NMF. Can linger be used to do clustering analysis for plasma proteomics data such as SomaScan 7k protein data. This is similar to gene expression data, not single cell data, all from plasma but with 1000+ samples. I wonder if linger can be adapted to cluster the samples (just as cells) into modules say 10 modules based on protein patterns. I like the NMF and GO annotation from linger. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
