Statistical software for transcription landscape reconstruction at a basepair resolution from RNA Seq read counts. It is based on a state-space model which describes, in terms of abrupt shifts and more progressive drifts, the transcription level dynamics along the genome. Alongside variations of transcription level, it incorporates a component of short-range variation to pull apart local artifacts causing correlated dispersion. Reconstruction of the transcription level relies on a conditional sequential Monte Carlo approach that is combined with parameter estimation in a Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm known as particle Gibbs. The method allows to estimate the local transcription level, to call transcribed regions, and to identify the transcript borders.

https://github.com/friend1ws/EBCall
A software package for somatic mutation detection (including InDels). EBCall uses not only paired tumor/normal sequence data of a target sample, but also multiple non-paired normal reference samples for evaluating distribution of sequencing errors, which leads to an accurate mutaiton detection even in case of low sequencing depths and low allele frequencies.

http://www.biobase-international.com/product/genome-trax
Service that provides a comprehensive compilation of variant knowledge that allows you to identify pathogenic variants in human whole genome or exome sequences. It makes it easy to upload a complete genome?s worth of variations and identify the biologically relevant subset of known mutations, mutations that are novel and appear in a candidate disease genes, or mutations that are predicted to have a deleterious effect. The database includes a comprehensive collection of disease causing mutations from HGMD Professional, regulatory sites from TRANSFAC , and disease genes, drug targets and pathways from PROTEOME, as well as pharmacogenomic variants. It integrates the best public data-sets on somatic mutations, allele frequencies and clinical variants, in their most up-to-date version, for a total of more than 165 million annotations. It is possible to identify known pathogenic variants, remove harmless common variants, and obtain deleterious predictions for novel variants. With family data, it is possible to identify variants that are de novo, compound heterozygous only in the offspring. All of the results can be downloaded to Excel for further review. For core facilities and bioinformaticians, the complete underlying data is made available for download and easy integration into custom analysis pipelines. Genome Trax data is optimized to work with many other software packages, such as ANNOVARTM, CLC bio, Alamut, SimulConsult, and Cartagenia.

https://dalexander.github.io/admixture/download.html
A software tool for maximum likelihood estimation of individual ancestries from multilocus SNP genotype datasets. It uses the same statistical model as STRUCTURE but calculates estimates much more rapidly using a fast numerical optimization algorithm. It uses a block relaxation approach to alternately update allele frequency and ancestry fraction parameters. Each block update is handled by solving a large number of independent convex optimization problems, which are tackled using a fast sequential quadratic programming algorithm. Convergence of the algorithm is accelerated using a novel quasi-Newton acceleration method., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.
