SomaticSeq: An Ensemble and Machine Learning Method to Detect Somatic Mutations.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
A standard strategy to discover somatic mutations in a cancer genome is to use next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies to sequence the tumor tissue and its matched normal (commonly blood or adjacent normal tissue) for side-by-side comparison. H...

Ensemble-Based Somatic Mutation Calling in Cancer Genomes.

Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.)
Identification of somatic mutations in tumor tissue is challenged by both technical artifacts, diverse somatic mutational processes, and genetic heterogeneity in the tumors. Indeed, recent independent benchmark studies have revealed low concordance b...

HMMRATAC: a Hidden Markov ModeleR for ATAC-seq.

Nucleic acids research
ATAC-seq has been widely adopted to identify accessible chromatin regions across the genome. However, current data analysis still utilizes approaches initially designed for ChIP-seq or DNase-seq, without considering the transposase digested DNA fragm...

Promoter analysis and prediction in the human genome using sequence-based deep learning models.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
MOTIVATION: Computational identification of promoters is notoriously difficult as human genes often have unique promoter sequences that provide regulation of transcription and interaction with transcription initiation complex. While there are many at...

EnsembleCNV: an ensemble machine learning algorithm to identify and genotype copy number variation using SNP array data.

Nucleic acids research
The associations between diseases/traits and copy number variants (CNVs) have not been systematically investigated in genome-wide association studies (GWASs), primarily due to a lack of robust and accurate tools for CNV genotyping. Herein, we propose...

Localizing and Classifying Adaptive Targets with Trend Filtered Regression.

Molecular biology and evolution
Identifying genomic locations of natural selection from sequence data is an ongoing challenge in population genetics. Current methods utilizing information combined from several summary statistics typically assume no correlation of summary statistics...

Gene multifunctionality scoring using gene ontology.

Journal of bioinformatics and computational biology
Multifunctional genes are important genes because of their essential roles in human cells. Studying and analyzing multifunctional genes can help understand disease mechanisms and drug discovery. We propose a computational method for scoring gene mult...
