HIA Resource Report Resource Website |
HIA (RRID:SCR_006865) | HIA | software resource | A sequence alignment tool to align both short and long reads to a reference genome. HIA has two indexes, a hash table index and a suffix array index. The hash table is capable of the direct lookup of a q-gram and the suffix array is very fast in the lookup of a variable length q-gram. Our experiments show that the hybrid of hash table and suffix array is useful at the perspective of speed to map NGS sequencing reads to a reference genome sequence. | matlab, java, command-line |

bioNerDS Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
bioNerDS (RRID:SCR_006784) | bioNerDS | data or information resource, data set, software application, software resource, source code, text-mining software | A named entity recognizer for the recovery of bioinformatics databases and software from primary literature. The entity recognizer achieved an F-measure of between 63% and 91% on different datasets (63%78% at the document level). Results from full-text literature analysis for both Genome Biology and BMC Bioinformatics journals are available as well as a full list of references and links for the various major resources mentioned. Data generated data can be used for exploration of bioinformatics database and software usage. This tool makes heavy use of GATE (version 6.1). It can be run in sandbox mode, which means a installation of GATE is not a prerequisite, but you will instead need to point the config to a unzipped gate_plugins directory instead (located in the bin/BMC_Files directory). | literature mining, bioinformatics, database, software, resource |

Virmid Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Virmid (RRID:SCR_006780) | Virmid | software resource | A Java based variant caller designed for disease-control matched samples. Virmid is also specialized for identifying potential within individual contamination where the disease sample cannot be purified enough. While the SNP calling rate is severely compromised with this heterogeneity, Virmid can uncover SNPs with low allele frequency by considering the level of contamination (alpha). The important features of Virmid are: * Estimation of accurate proporation of control sample in a (mixed) disease sample * Improved SNP and somatic mutation calling with regard to the estimated proportion | somatic mutation, sample impurity, java, snp, variant, disease, control |
