SiGN-SSM is an open-source gene network estimation software able to run in parallel on PCs and massively parallel supercomputers. The software estimates a state space model (SSM), that is a statistical dynamic model suitable for analyzing short time and/or replicated time series gene expression profiles. SiGN-SSM implements a novel parameter constraint effective to stabilize the estimated models. Also, by using a supercomputer, it is able to determine the gene network structure by a statistical permutation test in a practical time. SiGN-SSM is applicable not only to analyzing temporal regulatory dependencies between genes, but also to extracting the differentially regulated genes from time series expression profiles. AVAILABILITY: SiGN-SSM is distributed under GNU Affero General Public Licence (GNU AGPL) version 3 and can be downloaded at http://sign.hgc.jp/signssm/. The pre-compiled binaries for some architectures are available in addition to the source code. The pre-installed binaries are also available on the Human Genome Center supercomputer system. The online manual and the supplementary information of SiGN-SSM is available on our web site. CONTACT: tamada@ims.u-tokyo.ac.jp. 相似文献

SUMMARY: QDist is a program for computing the quartet distance between two unrooted trees, i.e. the number of quartet topology differences between the trees, where a quartet topology is the topological subtree induced by four species. The program is based on an algorithm with running time O(n log2 n), which makes it practical to compare large trees. Available under GNU license. AVAILABILITY: http://www.birc.dk/Software/QDist 相似文献

The scale of genetic-variation datasets has increased enormously and the linkage equilibrium (LD) structure of these polymorphisms, particularly in whole-genome association studies, is of great interest. The significant computational complexity of calculating single- and multiple-marker correlations at a genome-wide scale remains challenging. We have developed a program that efficiently characterizes whole-genome LD structure on large number of SNPs in terms of single- and multiple-marker correlations.

SUMMARY: ESS++ is a C++ implementation of a fully Bayesian variable selection approach for single and multiple response linear regression. ESS++ works well both when the number of observations is larger than the number of predictors and in the 'large p, small n' case. In the current version, ESS++ can handle several hundred observations, thousands of predictors and a few responses simultaneously. The core engine of ESS++ for the selection of relevant predictors is based on Evolutionary Monte Carlo. Our implementation is open source, allowing community-based alterations and improvements.

MOTIVATION: SBML is quickly becoming the standard format to exchange biochemical models. The tools presented in this paper are loosely-coupled, and are intended to be incorporated into SBML aware applications. The rationale for this is to reduce the amount of repeated work carried out within the community and to create tools that offer a greater number of features to the end-user. AVAILABILITY: All tools described are available from http://www.basis.ncl.ac.uk/software and are licensed under GNU General Public License. 相似文献

BeoBLAST is an integrated software package that handles user requests and distributes BLAST and PSI-BLAST searches to nodes of a Beowulf cluster, thus providing a simple way to implement a scalable BLAST system on top of relatively inexpensive computer clusters. Additionally, BeoBLAST offers a number of novel search features through its web interface, including the ability to perform simultaneous searches of multiple databases with multiple queries, and the ability to start a search using the PSSM generated from a previous PSI-BLAST search on a different database. The underlying system can also handle automated querying for high throughput work. AVAILABILITY: Source code is available under the GNU public license at http://bioinformatics.fccc.edu/ 相似文献

CompariMotif is a novel tool for making motif-motif comparisons, identifying and describing similarities between regular expression motifs. CompariMotif can identify a number of different relationships between motifs, including exact matches, variants of degenerate motifs and complex overlapping motifs. Motif relationships are scored using shared information content, allowing the best matches to be easily identified in large comparisons. Many input and search options are available, enabling a list of motifs to be compared to itself (to identify recurring motifs) or to datasets of known motifs. AVAILABILITY: CompariMotif can be run online at http://bioware.ucd.ie/ and is freely available for academic use as a set of open source Python modules under a GNU General Public License from http://bioinformatics.ucd.ie/shields/software/comparimotif/ 相似文献

SUMMARY: We have developed a tool implementing an efficient algorithm for refined Buneman tree reconstruction. The algorithm--which has the same complexity as the neighbour-joining method and the (plain) Buneman tree construction--enables refined Buneman tree reconstruction on large taxa sets.

SUMMARY: SPREAD is a user-friendly, cross-platform application to analyze and visualize Bayesian phylogeographic reconstructions incorporating spatial-temporal diffusion. The software maps phylogenies annotated with both discrete and continuous spatial information and can export high-dimensional posterior summaries to keyhole markup language (KML) for animation of the spatial diffusion through time in virtual globe software. In addition, SPREAD implements Bayes factor calculation to evaluate the support for hypotheses of historical diffusion among pairs of discrete locations based on Bayesian stochastic search variable selection estimates. SPREAD takes advantage of multicore architectures to process large joint posterior distributions of phylogenies and their spatial diffusion and produces visualizations as compelling and interpretable statistical summaries for the different spatial projections.

SUMMARY: Gene copy number and DNA methylation alterations are key regulators of gene expression in cancer. Accordingly, genes that show simultaneous methylation, copy number and expression alterations are likely to have a key role in tumor progression. We have implemented a novel software package (CNAmet) for integrative analysis of high-throughput copy number, DNA methylation and gene expression data. To demonstrate the utility of CNAmet, we use copy number, DNA methylation and gene expression data from 50 glioblastoma multiforme and 188 ovarian cancer primary tumor samples. Our results reveal a synergistic effect of DNA methylation and copy number alterations on gene expression for several known oncogenes as well as novel candidate oncogenes.

SUMMARY: Affymetrix GeneChip microarrays are increasingly used in gene expression studies and in greater number. A software library was developed that supports Affymetrix file formats and implements two popular summary algorithms (MAS5.0 and RMA). The library is modular in design for integration into larger systems and processing pipelines. Additionally, a graphical interface (GENE) was developed to allow end-user access to the functionality within the library. AVAILABILITY: libaffy is free to use under the GNU GPL license. The source code and Windows binaries can be freely accessed from the website http://src.moffitt.usf.edu/libaffy. Additional API documentation and user manual are available. 相似文献

Selecting a small number of informative genes for microarray-based tumor classification is central to cancer prediction and treatment. Based on model population analysis, here we present a new approach, called Margin Influence Analysis (MIA), designed to work with support vector machines (SVM) for selecting informative genes. The rationale for performing margin influence analysis lies in the fact that the margin of support vector machines is an important factor which underlies the generalization performance of SVM models. Briefly, MIA could reveal genes which have statistically significant influence on the margin by using Mann-Whitney U test. The reason for using the Mann-Whitney U test rather than two-sample t test is that Mann-Whitney U test is a nonparametric test method without any distribution-related assumptions and is also a robust method. Using two publicly available cancerous microarray data sets, it is demonstrated that MIA could typically select a small number of margin-influencing genes and further achieves comparable classification accuracy compared to those reported in the literature. The distinguished features and outstanding performance may make MIA a good alternative for gene selection of high dimensional microarray data.

The Ontologizer is a Java application that can be used to perform statistical analysis for overrepresentation of Gene Ontology (GO) terms in sets of genes or proteins derived from an experiment. The Ontologizer implements the standard approach to statistical analysis based on the one-sided Fisher's exact test, the novel parent-child method, as well as topology-based algorithms. A number of multiple-testing correction procedures are provided. The Ontologizer allows users to visualize data as a graph including all significantly overrepresented GO terms and to explore the data by linking GO terms to all genes/proteins annotated to the term and by linking individual terms to child terms. AVAILABILITY: The Ontologizer application is available under the terms of the GNU GPL. It can be started as a WebStart application from the project homepage, where source code is also provided: http://compbio.charite.de/ontologizer. REQUIREMENTS: Ontologizer requires a Java SE 5.0 compliant Java runtime engine and GraphViz for the optional graph visualization tool. 相似文献

SUMMARY: The program tuple_plot identifies and visualizes local similarities between two genomic sequences, typically 100 kb or longer, by applying the well-known dotplot principle. A dictionary of sequence words built from the input sequences serves to construct a task-specific expectancy model that is used to attribute significance values to pairwise word hits. The dictionary-based approach allows fast computation, the computation time scaling to O(N log N), depending on the size of the input sequences. The proposed scoring scheme appreciably increases the signal-to-noise ratio and may help to improve other word-based sequence comparison approaches.

We introduce a new algorithm to account for the presence of null alleles in inferences of populations clusters from individual multilocus genetic data. We show by simulations that the presence of null alleles can affect the accuracy of inferences if not properly accounted for and that our algorithm improve signficantly their accuracy. AVAILABILITY: This new algorithm is implemented in the program Geneland. It is freely available under GNU public license as an R package on the Comprehensive R Archive Network. It now includes a fully clickable graphical interface. Informations on how to get the software are available on folk.uio.no/gillesg/Geneland.html 相似文献
