Julia Programming Language, a Python and R rival
Big data has grown to become one of the most lucrative fields. In fact, data scientists are some of the most sought people. They are usually hired to analyze, control and parse large chunks of data. Implementing these actions using traditional techniques is not a walk in the park. This is why mos...Tags: Julia, Programming, Language, Real, Python, R, Alternative, Big, Data

Platypus: A Haplotype-Based Variant Caller For Next Generation Sequence Data
Platypus is a tool designed for efficient and accurate variant-detection in high-throughput sequencing data. By using local realignment of reads and local assembly it achieves both high sensitivity and high specificity. Platypus can detect SNPs, MNPs, short indels, replacements and (using th...Tags: Platypus, Haplotype-Based, Variant, Caller, Next, Generation, Sequence, Data, NGS, SNP

DeepHiC: A Generative Adversarial Network for Enhancing Hi-C Data Resolution
DeepHiC is a GAN-based model for enhancing Hi-C data resolution. We developed this server for helping researchers to enhance their own low-resolution data by a few steps of clicks. Ab initio training could be performed according to our published code. We provided trained models for various depth ...Tags: DeepHiC, Generative, Adversarial, Network, Enhancing, Hi-C, Data, Resolution
