Gupta Lab

Sun, 15 Sep 2013 09:31:24 -0500

Gupta laboratory of Natural Information Processing at DA-IICT. Research in our lab currently focuses on two aspects of information processing viz. deciphering the information processing principles in life (systems biology) and making a computer out of bio-molecules. The key expertise of the lab is in error-correcting codes. We also work in classical and quantum information processing principles with expertise in coding theory and its wide variety of applications in Information and Communication Technology (ICT).

OSDDlinux : Computational resources for drug discovery

Archana Malhotra — Sun, 22 Sep 2013 13:15:58 -0500

Open Source Drug Discovery (OSDD), a mission to provide affordable drugs for poors, is in the process of creating an in silico plateform for designing, discovering and simulating drugs. OSDD have initiate number of projects to support in silico drug discovery, including OSDDlinux and computational resources for drug discovery (CRDD).

The main purpose of OSDDLinux is to provide an in silico platform for computer-aided drug design. This is a collection and compilation of large number of software and web services which will be directly or indirectly useful for researches working in the field of drug design/discovery. Overall objective of OSDDlinux is to promote open source in drug discovery, crowdsourcing and network based collobrations. Following are major features of OSDDlinux ...

Where to Aproach for R&D Funds in India ?

Surabhi Chaudhary — Thu, 24 Jun 2021 01:04:30 -0500

Companies and governments do research and development (R&D/ R'n'D/ R+D) to promote innovation in order to produce new goods or services and/or enhance existing product lines. R&D covers all actions inside an organization aimed at boosting innovation, such as creating incubators, assisting innovators in scaling up their ideas, and cultivating an innovation culture.

Here are the list of all the research and development funding agencies in India.

Bioinformatics in Africa: Part 4 - Morocco

BioStar — Sat, 06 Feb 2021 13:31:24 -0600

Bioinformatics, in the UFR in Artificial Intelligence and Bioinformatics, deals with the management, the analysis, the modelling and the visualization of biological databases. Since the size of the databases is often exponential, the traditional algorithms are not very effective when seeking for a good computational solution.

To take care of this issue, many ways are opened to the researchers to improve the quality of the algorithms:

1. Usage of new information processing methods like artificial neuronal networks, genetic algorithms, etc. 2. Usage of Data mining to explore biochemical databases,
3. Usage of Machine learning on the biological examples to solve, for example, the problem of classification in Bioinformatics.

UFR offers in addition a doctoral training in Computer Science and Bioinformatics.

Doctoral module which includes: a Diplôme des Etudes Supérieures Approfondies (DESA) of two years; and a doctorate studies program with a national Ph.D. certification. Three specializations constitute the teaching trunk of the ENSAT: Computer engineering, Telecom engineering, and electronic systems engineering.

Research Interest and Activities:

The following are the present areas of research interest:

1. Machine Learning and Profile Gene Expression of Cancer
2. Predicting Protein structure
3. Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) and multiple alignments
4. Transformational Grammar for sequence modelling
5. Physical Mapping: STSs
6. Evolutionary Computation applied to Genomic and Proteomic
7. Predicate Logic and Protein Structure

XAMPP: Starting Apache fail Ubuntu

Ram Yash Pal — Sat, 07 Jun 2014 05:52:35 -0500

Once you install XAMMP on linux, the most common problem you face is Apache failure. To fix the issues please use following command to first stop and then again start it.

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop

sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop

sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd stop

sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start

PhpMyAdmin “Wrong permissions on configuration file, should not be world writable!”

Once the Xammp is installed, it might be possible to set up the configuration file in writable mode. Try the following steps:

Just chmod 0755 the file

sudo chmod 0755 config.inc.php
