Python is a popular and widespread programming language for scientific computing, in large part due to the powerful array programming library NumPy, which makes it easy to write clean, vectorized and efficient code for handling large datasets. A challenge with using array programming for biological data is that the…

Genome biology shows substantial progress in its analytical and computational part in the last decades. Differential gene expression is one of many computationally intense areas; it is largely developed under R programming language. Here we explain possible reasons for such dominance of R in gene expression data. Next…

'Dina Schneidman-Duhovny'] Gmxapi provides an integrated, native Python API for both standard and advanced molecular dynamics simulations in GROMACS. The Python interface permits multiple levels of integration with the core GROMACS libraries, and legacy support is provided via an interface that mimics the command-line…

Numerous Workflow Management Systems (WfMS) have been developed in the field of computational materials science with different workflow formats, hindering interoperability and reproducibility of workflows in the field. To address this challenge, we introduce here the Python Workflow Definition (PWD) as a workflow…

Understanding the complex molecular processes governing how cells respond to external stimuli crucially relies on prior knowledge about signaling, regulatory, and metabolic pathways. Standardized representations are necessary to exchange such pathway knowledge and allow interoperability between tools. BioPAX () is a…

Brightest path tracing is a widely used image processing technique in several fields including biology, geography, and geology. However, despite the availability of many image processing libraries in Python, few offer an out-of-the-box implementation of a bright-est path tracing algorithm. This paper presents a Python…

'G. J. Alexander' 'R. Shine' 'T. Coulson'] Diminishing natural resources and increasing climatic volatility are impacting agri-food systems, prompting the need for sustainable and resilient alternatives. Python farming is well established in Asia but has received little attention from mainstream agricultural…

Chemical Reaction Networks (CRNs) play a pivotal role in diverse fields such as systems biology, biochemistry, chemical engineering, and epidemiology. High-level modelling of CRNs enables various simulation approaches, including deterministic and stochastic methods. However, existing Python tools for CRN modelling…

'Sang Won Bae' 'Stefan Steiniger'] Since the first receiver independent exchange format (RINEX) version was released in 1989, it has gone through several versions, making the existing software, such as TEQC, incompatible with certain later versions. This study proposes a new Python package named PyRINEX, which is…

Programming is a cornerstone of modern society, yet its cognitive and neural basis remains poorly understood. In this study, we test the hypothesis that programming “recycles” pre-existing neural mechanisms and representations in fronto-parietal reasoning networks. Using fMRI, we scanned programming-naïve…

Random Forest models are widely used in genomic data analysis and can offer insights into complex biological mechanisms, particularly where features influence the target in interactive, non-linear, or non-additive ways. Currently, some of the most efficient random forest methods, in terms of computational speed, are…
