ProBias/BIAS – Detect Compositional Bias in Biological Sequences

ProBias/BIAS

:: DESCRIPTION

BIAS: a novel sensitive method for the detection of user-defined compositional bias in biological sequences.
BIAS automatically searches a user-supplied protein sequence for segments that contain unusually dense clusters of user-specified amino acid types and computes analytical estimates of the statistical significance of each cluster. These estimates are based on the discrete scan statistics that allows one to detect segments that exhibit even subtle local deviations from the random independence model.

BATS – A Basic Analysis Toolkit for Biological Sequences

BATS

:: DESCRIPTION

BATS consists of a collection of libraries that can be used to run basic sequence analysis tasks. Routines for global alignment (LCS from Fragments, Edit Distance with Gaps), local alignment (approximata string matching with K mismateches or differences), and statistical analysis (Filter, Z-Score and Model Generation ) are included.

Jstacs 2.3 – Java Framework for Statistical Analysis and Classification of Biological Sequences

Jstacs 2.3

:: DESCRIPTION

Jstacs is an open source Java library, which focuses on the statistical analysis of biological sequences instead. Jstacs comprises an efficient representation of sequence data and provides implementations of many statistical models with generative and discriminative approaches for parameter learning. Using Jstacs, classifiers can be assessed and compared on test datasets or by cross-validation experiments evaluating several performance measures.
