www.broadinstitute.org - As the number of sequence and annotated genomes grows larger, the need to understand, compare, and contrast the data becomes increasingly important. Using the power of the human visual system to detect trends and spot outliers is necessary in such...

web.mit.edu - We present methods for the automatic determination of genome correspondence. The algorithms enabled the automatic identification of orthologs for more than 90% of genes and intergenic regions across the four species despite the large number of...

github.com - Collection of Python libraries to parse bioinformatics files, or perform computation related to assembly, annotation, and comparative genomics.

Genetic variants discovery tool

broadinstitute.github.io - Picard is a set of command line tools for manipulating high-throughput sequencing (HTS) data and formats such as SAM/BAM/CRAM and VCF. These file formats are defined in the Hts-specs repository. See especially the SAM specification and the VCF...

bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org - This is the andi program for estimating the evolutionary distance between closely related genomes. These distances can be used to rapidly infer phylogenies for big sets of genomes. Because andi does not compute full alignments, it is so efficient...

http://docs.bpipe.org/ - Bpipe provides a platform for running big bioinformatics jobs that consist of a series of processing stages - known as 'pipelines'. January 20th, 2016 - New! Bpipe 0.9.9 released! Download latest, all Documentation Mailing List (Google...

apps.bioconnector.virginia.edu - Coverage / Read Count Calculator Calculate how much sequencing you need to hit a target depth of coverage (or vice versa). Instructions: set the read length/configuration and genome size, then select what you want to calculate. Written by Stephen...

http://www.hiveplot.com/ - The hive plot is a rational visualization method for drawing networks. Nodes are mapped to and positioned on radially distributed linear axes — this mapping is based on network structural properties. Edges are drawn as curved links....

github.com - SVfinder provides genome-wide detection of structural variants from next generation paired-end sequencing reads.
