Bedshift v1.1.1 – Bedfile Perturbation tool

Bedshift v1.1.1

:: DESCRIPTION

Bedshift is a tool for randomly perturbing BED file regions. The perturbations supported on regions are shift, drop, add, cut, and merge. This tool is particularly useful for creating test datasets for various tasks, since there often is no ground truth dataset to compare to. By perturbing a file, a pipeline or analysis can be run on both the perturbed file and the original file, then be compared.

NEXCADE 2.1 – Perturbation Analysis for Complex Networks

NEXCADE 2.1

:: DESCRIPTION

Nexcade (Network EXtinction casCADEs) is an automated and interactive program for analysing complex systems that can be conceptualized by networks, and represented as interconnected matrices of interactions. The analytical framework employs a graph theoretical approach for inducing various kinds of perturbations on networks such as extinction cascade simulations, focusing on the changes in topology and connectivity of the network as a function of the perturbation. Perturbations are induced in a user-defined manner followed by analysis of the resulting sub-networks.
