A central challenge in human genomics is to understand the cellular, evolutionary, and clinical significance of genetic variants. Here, we introduce a unified population-genetic and machine-learning model, called inear llele-pecific election nferenc ...
Genetic polymorphisms are mostly associated with inherited diseases, detecting and analyzing the biological significance of functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using wet laboratory experiments is an arduous task hence the computational ...

Breast cancer is a leading cancer type and one of the major health issues faced by women around the world. Some of its major risk factors include body mass index, hormone replacement therapy, family history and germline mutations. Of these risk facto...
BACKGROUND: Parametric feature selection methods for machine learning and association studies based on genetic data are not robust with respect to outliers or influential observations. While rank-based, distribution-free statistics offer a robust alt...
BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that impacts an increasing percentage of people each year. Among its comorbidities, diabetics are two to four times more likely to develop cardiovascular diseases. While HbA1c remains the primary dia...
The most prominent treatment for the serious cases of Crohn's disease (CD) are biological tumour necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors. Unfortunately, therapy nonresponse is still a serious issue in ~1/3 of CD patients. Accurate prediction of responsivene...
Genomic prediction (GP) aims to construct a statistical model for predicting phenotypes using genome-wide markers and is a promising strategy for accelerating molecular plant breeding. However, current progress of phenotype prediction using genomic d...
MOTIVATION: Quantitative detection of histone modifications has emerged in the recent years as a major means for understanding such biological processes as chromosome packaging, transcriptional activation, and DNA damage. However, high-throughput exp...

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) includes different neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by deficits in social communication, and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests or activities. Based on the importance of early diagnosis for...
The accurate identification of DNA sequence variants is an important, but challenging task in genomics. It is particularly difficult for single molecule sequencing, which has a per-nucleotide error rate of ~5-15%. Meeting this demand, we developed Cl...
