GEMS – Entropy-scaling Search of massive Biological data

GEMS

:: DESCRIPTION

GEMS is a suit of softweares for entropy-scaling searching of massive biological data.

Ammolite is production-quality software designed to do a Tanimoto distance similarity search over chemical graphs for small molecules.

MICA (Metagenomic Inquiry Compressive Acceleration) is a full drop-in replacement for BLASTX and DIAMOND supporting all command-line options that is 3.5x faster than DIAMOND (and over 3000x faster than BLASTX) with no loss in specificity and less than 5% loss in sensitivity.

esFragBag (entropy-scaling FragBag) is prototype software that applies entropy-scaling to accelerate only the all r-nearest neighbor search functionality of FragBag by a factor of ~10 with no loss in specificity and less than 0.2% loss in sensitivity.
