Background: To characterize the diversity of bacterial populations in metagenomic studies, sequencing reads need to be accurately assigned to taxonomic units in a given reference ...
Background: We present a novel method to encode ambiguously aligned regions in fixed multiple sequence alignments by ‘Pairwise Identity and Cost Scores Ordination’ (PICS-Ord)....

Background: The combination of genotypic and genome-wide expression data arising from segregating populations offers an unprecedented opportunity to model and dissect complex phen...
Background: It has been suggested previously that genome and proteome sequences show characteristics typical of natural-language texts such as “signature-style” word usage ind...
Background: Microarray technology allows the analysis of genomic aberrations at an ever increasing resolution, making functional interpretation of these vast amounts of data the m...
Background: Time course microarray profiles examine the expression of genes over a time domain. They are necessary in order to determine the complete set of genes that are dynamic...
Background: Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) analysis only captures a small proportion of associated genetic variants in Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) partly due to s...
