We present a machine learning approach to short tandem repeat (STR) sequence detection and extraction from massively parallel sequencing data called Fragsifier. Using this approach, STRs are detected on each read by first locating the longest repeat ...
Machine learning algorithms can be trained on complex data sets to detect, predict, or model specific aspects. Aim of this study was to train an artificial neural network in comparison to a Random Forest model to detect induced changes in microbial c...
The characterization of antimicrobial resistance genes from high-throughput sequencing data has become foundational in public health research and regulation. This requires mapping sequence reads to databases of known antimicrobial resistance genes to...
BACKGROUND: Metagenomic data of whole genome sequences (WGS) from samples across several cities around the globe may unravel city specific signatures of microbes. Illumina MiSeq sequencing data was provided from 12 cities in 7 different countries as ...
Next-generation sequencing (NGS), which allows the simultaneous sequencing of billions of DNA fragments simultaneously, has revolutionized how we study genomics and molecular biology by generating genome-wide molecular maps of molecules of interest. ...
Aptamer selection is a laborious procedure, requiring expertise and significant resources. These characteristics limit the accessibility of researchers to these molecular tools. We describe a selection procedure, making use of a robotic system that a...
BACKGROUND: The recent success of immunotherapy in treating tumors has attracted increasing interest in research related to the adaptive immune system in the tumor microenvironment. Recent advances in next-generation sequencing technology enabled the...
