A guide for complete R beginners :- R Syntax

Archana Malhotra — Fri, 20 Feb 2015 23:41:03 -0600

R is a functional based language, the inputs to a function, including options, are in brackets. Note that all dat and options are separated by a comma

Function(data, options)

Even quit is a function

So is help

help(read.table)

Provides the help page for the FUNCTION ‘read.table’

help.search(“t test”)

Searches for help pages that might relate to the phrase ‘t test’

NOTE: quotes are needed for search strings, they are not needed when referring to data objects or function names.

There is a short cut for help,

? shows the help page on a function name, same as help(function)

?read.table

?? searches for help pages on functions, same as help.search(‘phrase’)

??“t test”

Information is usually returned from a function, by default this is printed to screen

read.table(‘data.tsv’)

This can always be stored, we call what it is stored in an ‘object’

mydata

here mydata is an object of type dataframe

Reminder:

Vector: a list of numbers, equivalent to a column in a table
Data Frame = a collection of vectors. Equivalent to a table

Hint:

Up/Down arrow keys can be use to cycle through previous commands

Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide

Jit — Thu, 18 Feb 2016 04:50:51 -0600

This tutorial assumes no previous knowledge of scripting or programming, yet progresses rapidly toward an intermediate/advanced level of instruction . . . all the while sneaking in little nuggets of UNIX® wisdom and lore. It serves as a textbook, a manual for self-study, and as a reference and source of knowledge on shell scripting techniques. The exercises and heavily-commented examples invite active reader participation, under the premise that the only way to really learn scripting is to write scripts.

This book is suitable for classroom use as a general introduction to programming concepts.

GATB : Genome Analysis Toolbox with de-Bruijn graph

Jit — Thu, 28 Apr 2016 11:16:51 -0500

The Genome Analysis Toolbox with de-Bruijn graph (GATB) provides a set of highly efficient algorithms to analyse NGS data sets. These methods enable the analysis of data sets of any size on multi-core desktop computers, including very huge amount of reads data coming from any kind of organisms such as bacteria, plants, animals and even complex samples (e.g. metagenomes).

About

SAMtools is a popular open-source tool used in next-generation sequence analysis. This primer provides an introduction to SAMtools, and is geared towards those new to next-generation sequence analysis. The primer is also designed to be self-contained and hands-on, meaning that you only need to install SAMtools, and no other tools, and sample data sets are provided. Terms in bold are also explained in the glossary at the end of the document.

Fools guide

Poonam Mahapatra — Sun, 02 Apr 2017 14:31:18 -0500

This website and accompaning documents are intended as a tool to help researchers dealing with non-model organisms acquire and process transcriptomic high-throughput sequencing data without having to learn extensive bioinformatics skills. It covers all steps from tissue collection, sample preparation and computer setup, through addressing biological questions with gene expression and SNP data.

Machine learning training and courses in bioinformatics !

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 31 Dec 2019 19:33:07 -0600

Machine learning techniques have been successful in analyzing biological data because of their capabilities in handling randomness and uncertainty of data noise and in generalization. In this class, we will learn basics about probabilistic models and machine learning techniques. We will focus on probabilistic models (Markov models, Hidden Markov models, and Bayesian networks) for biological sequence analysis and systems biology. Other machine learning techniques, such as Naive bayes, neural networks and SVMs will only be covered briefly.
