Software that utilizes a multiobjective evolutionary algorithm for genetic mapping. It is based on a the ECJ evolutionary software package written by Sean Luke and includes the Strength Pareto Evoluationary Algorithm Version 2 changes for multiobjective analysis. The code runs on any platform with Java Version 2. A genetic mapping project, typically implemented during a search for genes responsible for a disease, requires the acquisition of a set of data from each of a large number of individuals. This data set includes the values of multiple genetic markers. These genetic markers occur at discrete positions along the genome, which is a collection of one or more linear chromosomes. Typing the value of a marker in an individual carries a cost; one seeks to minimize the number of markers typed without excessively jeopardizing the probability of detecting an association between a marker and a disease phenotype. MAGMA is a project which employ''s a multiobjective evolutionary algorithm to solve this problem.

http://estscan.sourceforge.net/

ESTScan is a program that can detect coding regions in DNA sequences, even if they are of low quality. ESTScan will also detect and correct sequencing errors that lead to frameshifts. ESTScan is not a gene prediction program , nor is it an open reading frame detector. In fact, its strength lies in the fact that it does not require an open reading frame to detect a coding region. As a result, the program may miss a few translated amino acids at either the N or the C terminus, but will detect coding regions with high selectivity and sensitivity. ESTScan takes advantages of the bias in hexanucleotide usage found in coding regions relative to non-coding regions. This bias is formalized as an inhomogeneous 3-periodic fifth-order Hidden Markov Model (HMM). Additionally, the HMM of ESTScan has been extended to allows insertions and deletions when these improve the coding region statistics.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/qudaich/

A software package for local sequence alignment for next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. It generates the pairwise local alignments between a query dataset against a database. The main design purpose of qudaich is to focus on datasets from next generation sequencing. These the datasets generally have hundreds of thousand sequences or more, and so, the input database should contain large number of sequences. Qudaich is flexible and its algorithmic structure imposes no restriction on the absolute limit of the acceptable read length, but the current version of qudaich allow read length <2000 bp. Qudaich can be used to align DNA, translated DNA and protein sequences.

http://seqbarracuda.sourceforge.net/

A sequence mapping software that utilizes the massive parallelism of graphics processing units to accelerate the inexact alignment of short sequence reads to a particular location on a reference genome. It can align a paired-end library containing 14 million pairs of 76bp reads to the Human genome in about 27 minutes (from fastq files to SAM alignment) using a ��380 NVIDIA Geforce GTX 680*. The alignment throughput can be boosted further by using multiple GPUs (up to 8) at the same time. Being based on BWA (http://bio-bwa.sf.net) from the Sanger Institute, BarraCUDA delivers a high level of alignment fidelity and is comparable to other mainstream alignment programs. It can perform gapped alignment with gap extensions, in order to minimise the number of false variant calls in re-sequencing studies.

https://compbio.dfci.harvard.edu/predictivenetworks//

A flexible, open-source, web-based application and data services framework that enables the integration, navigation, visualization and analysis of gene interaction networks. The primary goal of PN is to allow biomedical researchers to evaluate experimentally derived gene lists in the context of large-scale gene interaction networks. The PN analytical pipeline involves two key steps. The first is the collection of a comprehensive set of known gene interactions derived from a variety of publicly available sources. The second is to use these ''known'' interactions together with gene expression data to infer robust gene networks. The regression-based network inference algorithm creates a graph of gene interactions in which cycles may be present (but no self-loops). Based on information-theoretic techniques, a causal gene interaction network is inferred from both prior knowledge (interactions extracted from biomedical literature and structured biological databases) and gene expression data. A prediction model is fitted for each gene, given its parents, enabling assessment of the predictive ability of the network model.
