Making 2D Hilbert Curve

Jit — Mon, 17 Sep 2018 05:43:35 -0500

Hilbert curve is a type of space-filling curves that folds one dimensional axis into a two dimensional space, but still keeps the locality. It has advantages to visualize data with long axis in following two aspects:

greatly improve resolution of the visualization fron n to √nn;
easy to visualize clusters because generally data points in the axis will also be close in the 2D space.

This package aims to provide an easy and flexible way to visualize data through Hilbert curve. The implementation and example figures are based on following sources:

chromoMap-An R package for Interactive Visualization and Annotation of Chromosomes

Jit — Sat, 07 Sep 2019 10:45:31 -0500

chromoMap provides interactive, configurable and elegant graphics visualization of chromosomes or chromosomal regions allowing users to map chromosome elements (like genes,SNPs etc.) on the chromosome plot.Each chromosome is composed of loci(representing a specific range determined based on chromosome length) that, on hover, shows details about the annotations in that locus range. The plots can be saved as HTML documents that can be shared easily. In addition, you can include them in R Markdown or in R Shiny applications.

Some of the prominent features of the package are:

visualizing polyploidy simultaneously on the same plot.
annotating groups of elements as distinct colors.
creating chromosome heatmaps.
adjusting chromosome range or visualizing chromosome regions such as genes
adding labels to the plot
adding hyperlinks to each element

The Genome 10K Project

Tue, 29 Jul 2014 09:11:04 -0500

https://genome10k.soe.ucsc.edu The Genome 10K project aims to assemble a genomic zoo—a collection of DNA sequences representing the genomes of 10,000 vertebrate species, approximately one for every vertebrate genus. The trajectory of cost reduction in DNA sequencing suggests that this project will be feasible within a few years. Capturing the genetic diversity of vertebrate species would create an unprecedented resource for the life sciences and for worldwide conservation efforts. The growing Genome 10K Community of Scientists (G10KCOS), made up of leading scientists representing major zoos, museums, research centers, and universities around the world, is dedicated to coordinating efforts in tissue specimen collection that will lay the groundwork for a large-scale sequencing and analysis project.

Github replacement !

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 26 Sep 2019 03:42:39 -0500

For a number of reasons researchers have been trying out GitLab as a replacement for for both GitHub and various continuous integration systems, and have been exploring configurations useful for model-fitting pipelines. Researchers turned one of these into an example repository that shows how to use GitLab together with the Rocker Docker images and the drake build system to reproducibly run a project pipeline, using the cacheing functionality across all three tools to make things reasonably speedy and enable both local and remote builds.
