DeepMicro is a deep representation learning framework exploiting various autoencoders to learn robust low-dimensional representations from high-dimensional data and training classification models based on the learned representation.
nsSNPAnalyzer is a web tool to predict whether a nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (nsSNP) has a deleterious effect. nsSNPAnalyzer extracts structural and evolutionary information from a query nsSNP and uses a machine learning method called Random Forest to predict the nsSNP’s phenotypic effect.

HumanNet is a human functional gene network by integrating diverse types of omics data using Bayesian statistics framework and demonstrated its ability to retrieve disease genes.
PEDDY is a software package to identify and facilitate the remediation of such errors via interactive visualizations and reports comparing the stated sex, relatedness, and ancestry to what is inferred from the individual genotypes derived from whole-genome (WGS) or whole-exome (WES) sequencing.
APSampler is a tool that allows multi-locus and multi-level association analysis of genotypic and phenotypic data. The goal is to find the allelic sets (patterns) that are associated with phenotype. The main difficulty of such a task is, given the multiple loci and multiple alleles, the number of all possible classifiers tends to be extremely large. Therefore, Monte Carlo Markov Chain method is applied to reduce the space of solutions and sample only from regions where it is likely to find a good classifier. Once a set of classifiers is found, there is a problem to validate the results, and this is done using a number of well known methods. In case of single disease level, the resulting classifier divides the space of healthy and ill individuals, and the result is represented in a classic Fisher table. Odds ratio and Fisher’s p-value are calculated if applicable. Also, Kruskal’s gamma and the corresponding p-value can be calculated. After each pattern in the output is described by a p-values set of different multiple-hypothesis corrections, including permutation tests.
WAFFECT (pronounced ‘double-u affect’ for ‘weighted affectation’) is a package to simulate phenotypic (case or control) datasets under a disease model H1 such that the total number of cases is constant across all the simulations (the constrain in the title).
BEAM (Bayesian Epistasis Association Mapping) is a software for SNP-SNP interaction association mapping based on graph models, infers disease-SNP graph and automatically accounts for linkage disequilibrium.
