Since the discovery of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) as a prominent DNA modification found in mammalian genomes, an emergent question has been what role this mark plays in gene regulation. 5hmC is hypothesized to function as an intermediate in the d...
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have many advantages as molecular markers since they are ubiquitous and codominant. However, the discovery of true SNPs in polyploid species is difficult. Peanut ( L.) is an allopolyploid, which has a very low r...

We propose to use segment graph convolutional and recurrent neural networks (Seg-GCRNs), which use only word embedding and sentence syntactic dependencies, to classify relations from clinical notes without manual feature engineering. In this study, t...
