SDT v1.2 – Sequence Demarcation Tool

SDT v1.2

:: DESCRIPTION

SDT is a free and easy to use program that allows classification of virus sequences based on sequence pairwise identity. It takes as input a FASTA file of aligned or unaligned DNA or protein sequences and aligns every unique pair of sequences, calculates pairwise similarity scores, and displays a colour coded matrix of these scores. It also produces both a plot of these pairwise identity scores and text files containing analysis results.

Triplet-SVM – Predict a query sequence with Hairpin Structure as a real miRNA precursor or not

Triplet-SVM

:: DESCRIPTION

Triplet-SVM is developed for predicting a query sequence with hairpin structure as a real miRNA precursor or not. The triplet-SVM classifier analyzes the triplet elements of the query and predicts it using a SVM classifier. The SVM classifier is previously trained based on the triplet element features of a set of real miRNA precursors and a set of pseudo-miRNA hairpins.
