	<description><![CDATA[<p>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.</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<h2>Key features</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Filters SNVs from any variant caller to remove false positives</strong></li>
<li><strong>Calculates metrics based on BAM files and provides filtering not possible with other tools</strong></li>
<li><strong>Fully user-configurable filtering (including which filters to use and their thresholds)</strong></li>
<li><strong>Option to use filters identical to ICGC recommendations</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>FiNGS provides researchers with a tool to reproducibly filter somatic variants that is simple to both deploy and use, with filters and thresholds that are fully configurable by the user. It ingests and emits standard variant call format (VCF) files and will slot into existing sequencing pipelines. It allows users to develop and implement their own filtering strategies and simple sharing of these with others.</p>
<p>FiNGS reliably improves upon the precision of default variant caller outputs and performs better than other tools designed for the same task.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/cpwardell/FiNGS" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/cpwardell/FiNGS</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>The goal of the Shasta long read assembler is to rapidly produce accurate assembled sequence using as input DNA reads generated by&nbsp;<a href="https://nanoporetech.com/">Oxford Nanopore</a>&nbsp;flow cells.</p>
<p>Computational methods used by the Shasta assembler include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Using a&nbsp;<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-length_encoding">run-length</a>&nbsp;representation of the read sequence. This makes the assembly process more resilient to errors in homopolymer repeat counts, which are the most common type of errors in Oxford Nanopore reads.</li>
<li>Using in some phases of the computation a representation of the read sequence based on&nbsp;<em>markers</em>, a fixed subset of short k-mers (k &asymp; 10).</li>

	<title><![CDATA[SLURM basics !]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://bioinformaticsonline.com/bookmarks/view/27238/slurm" target="_blank">SLURM</a> is a queue management system and stands for Simple Linux Utility for Resource Management. SLURM was developed at the Lawrence Livermore National Lab and currently runs some of the largest compute clusters in the world.</p><p>SLURM is similar in many ways to most other queue systems. You write a batch script then submit it to the queue manager. The queue manager then schedules your job to run on the queue (or partition in SLURM parlance) that you designate. Below we will provide an outline of how to submit jobs to SLURM, how SLURM decides when to schedule your job and how to monitor progress.</p><p>SLURM has a number of valuable features compared to other job management systems:</p><ul>
<li><em>Kill and Requeue</em> SLURM&rsquo;s ability to kill and requeue is superior to that of other systems. It waits for jobs to be cleared before scheduling the high priority job. It also does kill and requeue on memory rather than just on core count.</li>
<li><em>Memory</em> Memory requests are sacrosanct in SLURM. Thus the amount of memory you request at run time is guaranteed to be there. No one can infringe on that memory space and you cannot exceed the amount of memory that you request.</li>
<li><em>Accounting Tools</em> SLURM has a back end database which stores historical information about the cluster. This information can be queried by the users who are curious about how much resources they have used.</li>
</ul><p><strong>Summary of SLURM commands</strong></p><p>The table below shows a summary of SLURM commands. These commands are described in more detail below along with links to the SLURM doc site.</p><table>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>GWASpro supports building complex design matrices, by which complex experimental designs that may include replications, treatments, locations and times, can be accounted for in the linear mixed model (LMM). GWASpro is optimized to handle GWAS data that may consist of up to 10 million markers and 10,000 samples from replicable lines or hybrids. GWASpro provides an interface that significantly reduces the learning curve for new GWAS investigators.</p>
