NCBO Annotator Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
NCBO Annotator (RRID:SCR_005329) | NCBO Annotator | web service, production service resource, service resource, data access protocol, software resource | A Web service that annotates textual metadata (e.g. journal abstract) with relevant ontology concepts. NCBO uses this Web service to annotate resources in the NCBO Resource Index. They also provide this Web service as a stand-alone service for users. This Web service can be accessed through BioPortal or used directly in your software. Currently, the annotation workflow is based on syntactic concept recognition (using concept names and synonyms) and on a set of semantic expansion algorithms that leverage the semantics in ontologies (e.g., is_a relations). Their service methodology leverages ontologies to create annotations of raw text and returns them using semantic web standards. | ontology, annotation, bio.tools |

PASS Resource Report Resource Website 1000+ mentions |
PASS (RRID:SCR_005490) | PASS | software resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 19, 2020.A program to align short sequences that has been developed with an innovative strategy to perform fast gapped and ungapped alignment onto a reference sequence. It supports several data formats and allows the user to modulate very finely the sensitivity of the alignments. The program is designed to handle huge amounts of short reads generated by ILLUMINA, SOLiD and Roche-454 technology. The optimization of the internal data structure and a filter based on precomputed short-word alignments allow the program to skip false positives in the extension phase, thus reducing the execution time without loss of sensitivity. The final alignment is performed by dynamic programming., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025. | bio.tools |

MOSAIK Resource Report Resource Website 50+ mentions |
MOSAIK (RRID:SCR_005486) | MOSAIK | software resource | A reference-guided assembler comprising of two main modular programs: MosaikBuild and MosaikAligner. MosaikBuild converts various sequence formats into Mosaik?s native read format. MosaikAligner pairwise aligns each read to a specified series of reference sequences and produces BAMs as outputs. At this time, the workflow consists of supplying sequences in FASTA, FASTQ, Illumina Bustard & Gerald, or SRF file formats and producing results in the BAM format. Unlike many current read aligners, MOSAIK produces gapped alignments using the Smith-Waterman algorithm. MOSAIK is written in highly portable C++ and currently targetted for the following platforms: Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X, FreeBSD, and Linux operating systems. Other platforms can easily be supported upon request. MOSAIK is multithreaded. If you have a machine with 8 processors, you can use all 8 processors to align reads faster while using the same memory footprint as when using one processor. MOSAIK supports multiple sequencing technologies. In addition to legacy technologies such as Sanger capillary sequencing, our program supports next generation technologies such as Roche 454, Illumina, AB SOLiD, and experimental support for the Helicos Heliscope. | next-generation sequencing, alignment, smith-waterman algorithm, c++, computational biology, reference guided aligner |

DMRforPairs (RRID:SCR_005702) | software resource | Software for identifying differentially methylated regions between unique samples using array based methylation profiles. It allows researchers to compare n greater than or equal to 2 unique samples with regard to their methylation profile. The (pairwise) comparison of n unique single samples distinguishesit from other existing pipelines as these often compare groups of samples in either single CpG locus or region based analysis. DMRforPairs defines regions of interest as genomic ranges with sufficient probes located in close proximity to each other. Probes in one region are optionally annotated to the same functional class(es). Differential methylation is evaluated by comparing the methylation values within each region between individual samples and (if the difference is sufficiently large), testing this difference formally for statistical significance. | standalone software, mac os x, unix/linux, windows, r, annotation, dna methylation, differential methylation, microarray, report writing, visualization, bio.tools |
