github.com - Clustergrammer is a web-based tool for visualizing high-dimensional data (e.g. a matrix) as an interactive and shareable hierarchically clustered heatmap. Clustergrammer's front end (Clustergrammer-JS) is built using D3.js and its back-end...
academic.oup.com - LoReTTA (Long Read Template-Targeted Assembler), a tool designed for performing de novo assembly of long reads generated from viral genomes on the PacBio platform. LoReTTA exploits a reference genome to guide the assembly process, an approach that...
www.interactivenn.net - InteractiVenn, a more flexible tool for interacting with Venn diagrams including up to six sets. It offers a clean interface for Venn diagram construction and enables analysis of set unions while preserving the shape of the diagram. Set unions are...
github.com - Minda is a tool for evaluating structural variant (SV) callers that
standardizes VCF records for compatibility with both germline and somatic SV callers,
benchmarks against a single VCF input file, or
benchmarks against an ensemble call set...
github.com - Jaeger is a tool that utilizes homology-free machine learning to identify phage genome sequences that are hidden within metagenomes. It is capable of detecting both phages and prophages within metagenomic assemblies.
The human genome project and similar projects in disease-causing organisms such as Plasmodium falciparum, which causes malaria in humans, have provided new tools for discovery in biology and have accelerated the development of understanding in human...
