Painless package development for R

Abhi — Tue, 03 May 2016 05:31:06 -0500

Devtools makes package development a breeze: it works with R’s existing conventions for code structure, adding efficient tools to support the cycle of package development. With devtools, developing a package becomes so easy that it will be your default layout whenever you’re writing a significant amount of code.

SOAP2 : Short Oligonucleotide Analysis Package 2

Poonam Mahapatra — Wed, 23 May 2018 10:09:22 -0500

SOAPaligner/soap2 is a member of the SOAP (Short Oligonucleotide Analysis Package). It is an updated version of SOAP software for short oligonucleotide alignment. The new program features in super fast and accurate alignment for huge amounts of short reads generated by Illumina/Solexa Genome Analyzer. Compared to soap v1, it is one order of magnitude faster. It require only 2 minutes aligning one million single-end reads onto the human reference genome. Another remarkable improvement of SOAPaligner is that it now supports a wide range of the read length. SOAPaligner benefitted in time and space efficiency by a revolution in the basic data structures and algorithms used.The core algorithms and the indexing data structures (2way-BWT) are developed by the algorithms research group of the Department of Computer Science, the University of Hong Kong (T.W. Lam, Alan Tam, Simon Wong, Edward Wu and S.M. Yiu).

dupRadar package

Jit — Sun, 04 Feb 2018 14:28:57 -0600

The dupRadar package gives an insight into the duplication problem by graphically relating the gene expression level and the duplication rate present on it. Thus, failed experiments can be easily identified at a glance

Platypus – R package for object detection and image segmentation.

BioStar — Mon, 09 Nov 2020 02:56:25 -0600

platypus is an R package for object detection and semantic segmentation. Currently using

platypus you can perform:

multi-class semantic segmentation using U-Net architecture
multi-class object detection using YOLOv3 architecture

You can install the latest version of platypus with remotes package:

remotes::install_github("maju116/platypus")

Note that in order to install platypus you need to install keras and tensorflow packages and Tensorflow version >= 2.0.0 ( Tensorflow 1.x will not be supported!)

kebabs: package provides functionality for kernel based analysis of biological sequences via Support Vector Machine (SVM) based methods

Rahul Nayak — Fri, 04 Mar 2022 00:14:11 -0600

The kebabs package provides functionality for kernel based analysis of biological sequences via Support Vector Machine (SVM) based methods. Biological sequences include DNA, RNA, and amino acid (AA) sequences. Sequence kernels define similarity measures between sequences. The package implements some of the most important kernels for sequence analysis in a very flexible and efficient way and extends the standard position-independent functionality of these kernels in a novel way to take the position of patterns in the sequences into account for the similarity measure.

This is an extract of taxdump-readme.txt to be found at 
ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/pub/taxonomy/

The content of the archive
--------------------------

It may look like this:

delnodes.dmp

readme.txt

The readme.txt file gives a brief description of *.dmp files. These files
contain taxonomic information and are briefly described below. Each of the
files store one record in the single line that are delimited by "\t|\n"
(tab, vertical bar, and newline) characters. Each record consists of one 
or more fields delimited by "\t|\t" (tab, vertical bar, and tab) characters.
