GARM 1.0 – Genetic Algorithm for creation of Resistance Maps

GARM 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

GARM, a Genetic Algorithm for creation of Resistance Maps. The main motivation behind GARM is to begin to help remove the influence of ‘expert opinion’ on landscape resistance maps and allow users to input large numbers of environmental layers.

GAME – Utilize Genetic Algorithm to Find Motifs

GAME

:: DESCRIPTION

GAME (Genetic Algorithm based Motif Elicitation)is a software which utilizes a genetic algorithm to find motifs (statistically over-represented patterns) in a set of related DNA sequences. As one application, motifs could be transcription factor binding sites in a set of co-regulated genes.
