About: FABIA is a biclustering algorithm that clusters rows and columns of a matrix simultaneously. Consequently, members of a row cluster are similar to each other on a subset of columns and, analogously, members of a column cluster are similar to each other on a subset of rows. Biclusters are found by factor analysis where both the factors and the loading matrix are sparse. FABIA is a multiplicative model that extracts linear dependencies between samples and feature patterns. Applications include detection of transcriptional modules in gene expression data and identification of haplotypes/>identity by descent< consisting of rare variants obtained by next generation sequencing.

About: Epistatic miniarray profiles (E-MAPs) are a high-throughput approach capable of quantifying aggravating or alleviating genetic interactions between gene pairs. The datasets resulting from E-MAP experiments typically take the form of a symmetric pairwise matrix of interaction scores. These datasets have a significant number of missing values - up to 35% - that can reduce the effectiveness of some data analysis techniques and prevent the use of others. This project contains nearest neighbor based tools for the imputation and prediction of these missing values. The code is implemented in Python and uses a nearest neighbor based approach. Two variants are used - a simple weighted nearest neighbors, and a local least squares based regression. Changes:Initial Announcement on mloss.org.

About: Accurate splice site predictor for a variety of genomes. Changes:Asp now supports three formats: -g fname for gff format -s fname for spf format -b dir for a binary format compatible with mGene. And a new switch -t which switches on a sigmoid-based transformation of the svm scores to get scores between 0 and 1.
|
About: Investigation of dependencies between multiple data sources allows the discovery of regularities and interactions that are not seen in individual data sets. The demand for such methods is increasing with the availability and size of co-occurring observations in computational biology, open data initiatives, and in other domains. We provide practical, open access implementations of general-purpose algorithms that help to realize the full potential of these information sources. Changes:Three independent modules (drCCA, pint, MultiWayCCA) have been added.

About: BACKGROUND:Over the last decade several prediction methods have been developed for determining the structural and functional properties of individual protein residues using sequence and sequence-derived information. Most of these methods are based on support vector machines as they provide accurate and generalizable prediction models. RESULTS:We present a general purpose protein residue annotation toolkit (svmPRAT) to allow biologists to formulate residue-wise prediction problems. svmPRAT formulates the annotation problem as a classification or regression problem using support vector machines. One of the key features of svmPRAT is its ease of use in incorporating any user-provided information in the form of feature matrices. For every residue svmPRAT captures local information around the reside to create fixed length feature vectors. svmPRAT implements accurate and fast kernel functions, and also introduces a flexible window-based encoding scheme that accurately captures signals and pattern for training eective predictive models. CONCLUSIONS:In this work we evaluate svmPRAT on several classification and regression problems including disorder prediction, residue-wise contact order estimation, DNA-binding site prediction, and local structure alphabet prediction. svmPRAT has also been used for the development of state-of-the-art transmembrane helix prediction method called TOPTMH, and secondary structure prediction method called YASSPP. This toolkit developed provides practitioners an efficient and easy-to-use tool for a wide variety of annotation problems.
