Mesh-based Monte Carlo (MMC) Resource Report Resource Website |
Mesh-based Monte Carlo (MMC) (RRID:SCR_006950) | MMC | software application, software resource | A Monte Carlo (MC) solver for photon migration in 3D turbid media. Different from existing MC software designed for layered (such as MCML) or voxel-based media (such as MMC or tMCimg), MMC can represent a complex domain using a tetrahedral mesh. This not only greatly improves the accuracy of the solutions when modeling objects with smooth/complex boundaries, but also gives an efficient way to sample the problem domain to use less memory. The current version of MMC support multi-threaded programming and can give a almost proportional speed-up when using multiple CPU cores. | c, console (text based), modeling, monte carlo, optical imaging, posix/unix-like |

BioMail Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
BioMail (RRID:SCR_008174) | software application, software resource | BioMail is a small web-based application for medical researchers, biologists, and anyone who wants to know the latest information about a disease or a biological phenomenon. It is written to automate searching for recent scientific papers in the PubMed Medline database. BioMail is free and will stay free. What does BioMail do? Periodically BioMail does a user-customized Medline search and sends all matching articles recently added to Medline to the users'' e-mail address. HTML-formatted e-mails generated by BioMail can be used to view selected references in medline format (compatible with most reference manager programs). Why is BioMail helpful? If you use Medline, it may be hard to remember when you did your last search. Often you must scan titles you have already seen to be certain you didn''t miss an important reference. BioMail will perform routine searches for you. This program alerts users to all new papers in their fields automatically. It also helps the user to ''refine'' search patterns once and for all. There is no need to wonder: ''What was that great search pattern I used last Saturday?''. All patterns are safe in the database and can be accessed, tuned, or deleted any time. It is also useful for countries where access to the Internet is not yet widely available. If a person has a permanent e-mail address, but only sporadic www access, she/he only needs to fill out a BioMail form once and then will receive new references from Medline continually. | articles, journals, medline interface | has parent organization: SourceForge | nif-0000-21059 | SCR_008174 | BioMail | 2026-02-15 09:19:48 | 1 | |||||||||

ALCHEMY Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
ALCHEMY (RRID:SCR_005761) | ALCHEMY | source code, software resource | ALCHEMY is a genotype calling algorithm for Affymetrix and Illumina products which is not based on clustering methods. Features include explicit handling of reduced heterozygosity due to inbreeding and accurate results with small sample sizes. ALCHEMY is a method for automated calling of diploid genotypes from raw intensity data produced by various high-throughput multiplexed SNP genotyping methods. It has been developed for and tested on Affymetrix GeneChip Arrays, Illumina GoldenGate, and Illumina Infinium based assays. Primary motivations for ALCHEMY''s development was the lack of available genotype calling methods which can perform well in the absence of heterozygous samples (due to panels of inbred lines being genotyped) or provide accurate calls with small sample batches. ALCHEMY differs from other genotype calling methods in that genotype inference is based on a parametric Bayesian model of the raw intensity data rather than a generalized clustering approach and the model incorporates population genetic principles such as Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium adjusted for inbreeding levels. ALCHEMY can simultaneously estimate individual sample inbreeding coefficients from the data and use them to improve statistical inference of diploid genotypes at individual SNPs. The main documentation for ALCHEMY is maintained on the sourceforge-hosted MediaWiki system. Features * Population genetic model based SNP genotype calling * Simultaneous estimation of per-sample inbreeding coefficients, allele frequencies, and genotypes * Bayesian model provides posterior probabilities of genotype correctness as quality measures * Growing number of scripts and supporting programs for validation of genotypes against control data and output reformating needs * Multithreaded program for parallel execution on multi-CPU/core systems * Non-clustering based methods can handle small sample sets for empirical optimization of sample preparation techniques and accurate calling of SNPs missing genotype classes ALCHEMY is written in C and developed on the GNU/Linux platform. It should compile on any current GNU/Linux distribution with the development packages for the GNU Scientific Library (gsl) and other development packages for standard system libraries. It may also compile and run on Mac OS X if gsl is installed. | diploid, genotype, snp, bio.tools |

OrChem Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
OrChem (RRID:SCR_008865) | OrChem | source code, software resource | OrChem is an extension for the Oracle 11G database that adds registration and indexing of chemical structures to support fast substructure and similarity searching. The cheminformatics functionality is provided by the Chemistry Development Kit. OrChem provides similarity searching with response times in the order of seconds for databases with millions of compounds, depending on a given similarity cut-off. For substructure searching, it can make use of multiple processor cores on today''s powerful database servers to provide fast response times in equally large data sets. OrChem is an Oracle chemistry plug-in using the Chemistry Development Kit (CDK). The CDK is an open source Java library for Chemoinformatics and Bioinformatics. OrChem is maintained by the chemoinformatics and metabolism team of the European Bioinformatics Institute. Oracle Data cartridges extend the capabilities of the Oracle server. For chemistry various commercial cartridges exist that facilitate searching and analyzing chemical data. OrChem also provides functionality like this, but is not a cartridge. It doesn''t need Oracle''s extensibility architecture because its Java components run as Java stored procedures inside the Oracle standard JVM (Aurora). OrChem is suitable for Oracle 11G and onwards. Starting with Oracle 11g release 1 (11.1) there is a just-in-time(JIT) compiler for Oracle JVM environment. A JIT compiler for Oracle JVM enables much faster execution because it manages the invalidation, recompilation, and storage of code without an external mechanism. This new Oracle feature makes Java classes perform better than before. | oracle, chemistry, cdk, similarity search, chemical structure, cheminformatics, bioinformatics, plugin |

Niftilib currently has C, Java, MATLAB, and Python libraries; we plan to add some MATLAB/mex interfaces to the C library in the not too distant future. Niftilib has been developed by members of the NIFTI DFWG and volunteers in the neuroimaging community and serves as a reference implementation of the nifti-1 file format. In addition to being a reference implementation, we hope it is also a useful i/o library. Niftilib code is released into the public domain, developers are encouraged to incorporate niftilib code into their applications, and, to contribute changes and enhancements to niftilib. Please contact us if you would like to contribute additonal functionality to the i/o library. | image data, mri, fmri, brain image, image, brain, neuroimaging |
