chromoMap-An R package for Interactive visualization and mapping of human chromosomes

Rahul Nayak — Mon, 25 Jun 2018 17:22:24 -0500

chromoMap is an R package that provides interactive, configurable and elegant graphics visualization of the human chromosomes allowing users to map chromosome elements (like genes, SNPs etc.) on the chromosome plot. It introduces a special plot viz. the "chromosome heatmap" that, in addition to mapping elements, can visualize the data associated with chromosome elements (like gene expression) in the form of heat colors which can be highly advantageous in the scientific interpretations and research work. Because of the enormous size of the chromosomes, it is impractical to visualize each element on the same plot. But chromoMap plots provide a magnified view for each of chromosome location to render additional information and visualization specific for that location. You can map thousands of genes and can view all mappings easily. Users can investigate the detailed information about the mappings (like gene names or total genes mapped on a location) or can view the magnified single or double stranded view of the chromosome at a location showing each mapped element in sequential order (You will see in the demos below). Not ony that, the plots can be saved as HTML documents that can be customized and shared easily. In addition, you can include them in R Markdown or in R Shiny applications.

Mulan: MUltiple sequence Local AligNment and conservation visualization tool

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 20 Jul 2017 08:02:32 -0500

Mulan performs multiple (2 or more) sequence alignments with an efficient and rapid "full local" alignment strategy that ensures a recapitulation of evolutionary sequence rearrangements (such as inversions and reshuffling) in any of the species. It combines refine and tba tools to align either "draft" or "finished" quality sequences. Mulan provides a dynamic graphical interface to align and visualize conservation profiles for evolutionarily distant and closely related species.

Input formats, automated data upload from the UCSC Genome Browser, gene annotation, annotation of repetitive elements, and progress report were previously described in the zPicture instructions and we refer the users to these materials for more details. This introduction is mainly focused on some novel features unique to the Mulan.

poRe: an R package for the visualization and analysis of nanopore sequencing data

Jit — Thu, 23 Nov 2017 09:55:57 -0600

Motivation: The Oxford Nanopore MinION device represents a unique sequencing technology. As a mobile sequencing device powered by the USB port of a laptop, the MinION has huge potential applications. To enable these applications, the bioinformatics community will need to design and build a suite of tools specifically for MinION data.

Results: Here we present poRe, a package for R that enables users to manipulate, organize, summarize and visualize MinION nanopore sequencing data. As a package for R, poRe has been tested on Windows, Linux and MacOSX. Crucially, the Windows version allows users to analyse MinION data on the Windows laptop attached to the device.

Availability and implementation: poRe is released as a package for R at http://sourceforge.net/projects/rpore/ . A tutorial and further information are available at https://sourceforge.net/p/rpore/wiki/Home/

BFC: a standalone high-performance tool for correcting sequencing errors from Illumina sequencing data

Jit — Thu, 31 May 2018 09:35:23 -0500

BFC is a standalone high-performance tool for correcting sequencing errors from Illumina sequencing data. It is specifically designed for high-coverage whole-genome human data, though also performs well for small genomes. The BFC algorithm is a variant of the classical spectrum alignment algorithm introduced by Pevzner et al (2001). It uses an exhaustive search to find a k-mer path through a read that minimizes a heuristic objective function jointly considering penalties on correction, quality and k-mer support. This algorithm was first implemented in my fermi assembler and then refined a few times in fermi, fermi2 and now in BFC. In the k-mer counting phase, BFC uses a blocked bloom filter to filter out most singleton k-mers and keeps the rest in a hash table (Melsted and Pritchard, 2011). The use of bloom filter is how BFC is named, though other correctors such as Lighter and Bless actually rely more on bloom filter than BFC. https://github.com/lh3/bfc

SeqMonk:A tool to visualise and analyse high throughput mapped sequence data

Jit — Tue, 11 Sep 2018 04:39:38 -0500

SeqMonk is a program to enable the visualisation and analysis of mapped sequence data. It was written for use with mapped next generation sequence data but can in theory be used for any dataset which can be expressed as a series of genomic positions. It's main features are:

Import of mapped data from mapped data (BAM/SAM/bowtie etc)
Creation of data groups for visualisation and analysis
Visualisation of mapped regions against an annotated genome.
Flexible quantitation of the mapped data to allow comparisons between data sets
Statistical analysis of data to find regions of interest
Creation of reports containing data and genome annotation

Fundamentals of Data Visualization by Claus O. Wilke

Abhi — Sat, 08 Jun 2024 16:07:19 -0500

The book is meant as a guide to making visualizations that accurately reflect the data, tell a story, and look professional. It has grown out of my experience of working with students and postdocs in my laboratory on thousands of data visualizations. Over the years, I have noticed that the same issues arise over and over. I have attempted to collect my accumulated knowledge from these interactions in the form of this book.

The entire book is written in R Markdown, using RStudio as my text editor and the bookdown package to turn a collection of markdown documents into a coherent whole. The book’s source code is hosted on GitHub, at https://github.com/clauswilke/dataviz.

GenoViz: Visualization software for genomics

Rahul Nayak — Wed, 02 Jan 2019 04:07:57 -0600

GenoViz provides software applications and re-usable components for data visualization and data sharing in genomics. Our flagship product is Integrated Genome Browser (IGB).

For more information about IGB, visit http://bioviz.org.

Source code for the project was hosted here for many years. In 2014, we moved to a new git repository at http://www.bitbucket.org/lorainelab/integrated-genome-browser. We are still using SourceForge to distribute new releases of IGB as compiled code (igb.zip) you can use to run IGB on your computer.

If you have questions, feel free to get in touch. Contact project head Ann Loraine (aloraine@uncc.edu) or lead developer David Norris (dcnorris@uncc.edu>).
