iRNAD: a computational tool for identifying D modification sites in RNA sequence

Abhimanyu Singh — Thu, 16 May 2019 00:20:07 -0500

iRNAD, for identifying D modification sites in RNA sequence. In this predictor, the RNA samples derived from five species were encoded by nucleotide chemical property and nucleotide density. Support vector machine was utilized to perform the classification.

Apollo: a sequence annotation editor

Abhimanyu Singh — Tue, 27 Aug 2019 08:08:47 -0500

The well-established inaccuracy of purely computational methods for annotating genome sequences necessitates an interactive tool to allow biological experts to refine these approximations by viewing and independently evaluating the data supporting each annotation. Apollo was developed to meet this need, enabling curators to inspect genome annotations closely and edit them

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.

LoFreq*: A sequence-quality aware, ultra-sensitive variant caller for NGS data

BioStar — Tue, 18 Feb 2020 03:24:22 -0600

LoFreq* (i.e. LoFreq version 2) is a fast and sensitive variant-caller for inferring SNVs and indels from next-generation sequencing data. It makes full use of base-call qualities and other sources of errors inherent in sequencing (e.g. mapping or base/indel alignment uncertainty), which are usually ignored by other methods or only used for filtering.

single-end/paired-end bulk RNA-seq (strand-specific/agnostic)
paired-end single-cell RNA-seq (strand-specific/agnostic)
nanopore RNA-seq (PCR cDNA/direct cDNA/direct RNA)

This also includes:

A2Amapper: ATAC, Assembly to Assembly Comparision tool:
- Comparative mapping between two genome assemblies (same species), or between two different genomes (cross species).

Sim4db:
- Spliced alignment of cDNA and genomic sequences, from the same (sim4) or related (sim4cc) species. Optimized for high-throughput batched alignment.

LEAFF:
- LEAFF (ahem, Let's Extract Anything From Fasta) is a utility program for working with multi-fasta files. In addition to providing random access to the base level, it includes several analysis functions.

Meryl:
- An out-of-core k-mer counter. The amount of sequence that can be processed for any size k depends only on the amount of free disk space.

UniAligner: a parameter-free framework for fast sequence alignment

Abhi — Fri, 08 Mar 2024 23:36:12 -0600

UniAligner (formerly, TandemAligner) is the first parameter-free algorithm for sequence alignment that introduces a sequence-dependent alignment scoring that automatically changes for any pair of compared sequences. Classical alignment approaches, such as the Smith-Waterman algorithm, that work well for most sequences, fail to construct biologically adequate alignments of extra-long tandem repeats (ETRs), such as human centromeres and immunoglobulin loci. This limitation was overlooked in the previous studies since the sequences of the centromeres and other ETRs across multiple genomes only became available recently.

LIBSVM -- A Library for Support Vector Machines

Neel — Wed, 02 Aug 2017 06:49:05 -0500

LIBSVM is an integrated software for support vector classification, (C-SVC, nu-SVC), regression (epsilon-SVR, nu-SVR) and distribution estimation (one-class SVM). It supports multi-class classification.

Since version 2.8, it implements an SMO-type algorithm proposed in this paper:
R.-E. Fan, P.-H. Chen, and C.-J. Lin. Working set selection using second order information for training SVM. Journal of Machine Learning Research 6, 1889-1918, 2005. You can also find a pseudo code there. (how to cite LIBSVM)

Our goal is to help users from other fields to easily use SVM as a tool. LIBSVM provides a simple interface where users can easily link it with their own programs. Main features of LIBSVM include

Different SVM formulations
Efficient multi-class classification
Cross validation for model selection
Probability estimates
Various kernels (including precomputed kernel matrix)
Weighted SVM for unbalanced data
Both C++ and Java sources
GUI demonstrating SVM classification and regression
Python, R, MATLAB, Perl, Ruby, Weka, Common LISP, CLISP, Haskell, OCaml, LabVIEW, and PHP interfaces. C# .NET code and CUDA extension is available.
It's also included in some data mining environments: RapidMiner, PCP, and LIONsolver.
Automatic model selection which can generate contour of cross validation accuracy.
