visNetwork: an R package for network visualization, using vis.js javascript library

Jit — Wed, 09 Jan 2019 11:00:32 -0600

visNetwork is an R package for network visualization, using vis.js javascript library (http://visjs.org/). All remarks and bugs are welcome on github : https://github.com/datastorm-open/visNetwork.

Features

Based on htmlwidgets, so :

compatible with shiny, R Markdown documents, and RStudio viewer

The package proposes all the features available in vis.js API, and even more with special features for R :

easy to use
custom shapes, styles, colors, sizes, …
works smooth on any modern browser for up to a few thousand nodes and edges
interactivity controls (highlight, collapsed nodes, selection, zoom, physics, movement of nodes, tooltip, events, …)
visualize rpart tree

GfaViz: flexible and interactive visualization of GFA sequence graphs

Jit — Thu, 23 Jan 2020 07:33:46 -0600

GFA (Graphical Fragment Assembly) is an emerging standard format for representing sequence graphs. Although it was originally conceived as a format for sequence assembly (hence the name), and this remains its core application, it is more general, and able to represent many different types of sequence graphs, including scaffolding graphs, alignment graphs, variant graphs and splicing graphs.

GenoFig: a user-friendly application for the visualization and comparison of genomic regions

BioStar — Mon, 05 Aug 2024 23:06:58 -0500

Tool for graphical vizualisation of annotated genetic regions, and homologous regions comparison. It is an independent recoding of Easyfig 2 initially developped by at the S. Beatson Lab [https://mjsull.github.io/Easyfig/]

Download the GenoFig source code using the 'Download' button on top of this page. Cloning is currently not available for people not member of the INRAE French Institution. After decompression, open a terminal in the folder containing the decompressed files and run:

conda env create -f extras/requirements.yml

mrFAST: Micro Read Fast Alignment Search Tool

Neel — Tue, 26 Apr 2016 03:50:06 -0500

mrFAST is a read mapper that is designed to map short reads to reference genome with a special emphasis on the discovery of structural variation and segmental duplications. mrFAST maps short reads with respect to user defined error threshold, including indels up to 4+4 bp. This manual, describes how to choose the parameters and tune mrFAST with respect to the library settings. mrFAST is designed to find 'all' mappings for a given set of reads, however it can return one "best" map location if the relevant parameter is invoked.

sockeye

Jit — Fri, 17 Feb 2017 08:51:16 -0600

This sockeye software uses the Ensembl database project to import sequence and annotation information from several eukaryotic species. A user can additionally import their own custom sequence and annotation data. Individual annotation objects are displayed in Sockeye by using custom 3D models. Ensembl-derived and imported sequences can be analyzed by using a suite of multiple and pair-wise alignment algorithms. The results of these comparative analyses are also displayed in the 3D environment of Sockeye. By using the Java3D API to visualize genomic data in a 3D environment, we are able to compactly display cross-sequence comparisons. This provides the user with a novel platform for visualizing and comparing genomic feature organization.

bedtools

Jit — Fri, 24 Feb 2017 04:50:44 -0600

Collectively, the bedtools utilities are a swiss-army knife of tools for a wide-range of genomics analysis tasks. The most widely-used tools enable genome arithmetic: that is, set theory on the genome. For example, bedtools allows one tointersect, merge, count, complement, and shuffle genomic intervals from multiple files in widely-used genomic file formats such as BAM, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF. While each individual tool is designed to do a relatively simple task (e.g., intersect two interval files), quite sophisticated analyses can be conducted by combining multiple bedtools operations on the UNIX command line.

bedtools is developed in the Quinlan laboratory at the University of Utah and benefits from fantastic contributions made by scientists worldwide.

Salzberg lab

Mon, 15 May 2017 05:14:01 -0500

We are a computational biology lab that develops novel methods for analysis of DNA and RNA sequences. Our research includes software for aligning and assembling RNA-seq data, whole-genome assembly, and microbiome analysis. We work closely with biomedical scientists to apply these methods to current problems arising in a broad spectrum of biological and medical research areas. We’re also part of the Center for Computational Biology, a group of 20+ faculty members and their labs at Johns Hopkins working on computational, statistical, and mathematical methods that can turn massive genomic data sets into biologically and clinically useful information.
