DistG – Distribution Graph

DistG

:: DESCRIPTION

DistG counts the length of fasta sequences and make a graphical representation about. There are two king of graphs. The first is the distribution graph, giving an overview of all read fasta files (sequences) so far. The second graph displays a specific file’s counting as a set of rectangles.

DBC 6.11.13 / dbOTU3 – Distribution-based Clustering

DBC 6.11.13 / dbOTU3

:: DESCRIPTION

The DBC software is an alternative method for organizing sequence data into operational taxonomic units (OTUs) for next-generation sequencing technologies, such as Illumina. The focus of this method is to identify sequences that are genetically and ecologically similar to group them, while keeping ecologically distinct organisms apart, regardless of sequence identity.

dbOTU3 is a new implementation of dbOTU that is faster and more user-friendly.

GMD 0.3.3 – Generalized Minimum Distance of Distributions

GMD 0.3.3

:: DESCRIPTION

GMD is an R package to assess the similarity between spatial distributions of read-based sequencing data such as ChIP-seq and RNA-seq. GMD calculates the optimal distance between pairs of normalized signal distributions, optionally sliding one distribution over the other to ‘align’ the distributions. GMD also provides graphical and downstream clustering tools.

CENTDIST – Discovery of Co-associated Factors by Motif Distribution

CENTDIST

:: DESCRIPTION

CENTDIST is a novel web-application for identifying co-localized transcription factors around ChIP-seq peaks. Unlike traditional motif scanning program, CENTDIST does not require any user-specific parameters and the background. It automatically learns the best set of parameters for different motifs and ranks them based on the skewness of their distribution around ChIP-seq peaks.
