Xuebin Feng, Emma R. Master
Sequence similarity networks (SSNs) are graphical representations of sequence relationship frequently used for exploring protein sequence space. Conventional SSN workflows typically use BLAST to calculate sequence similarities and rely on external visualization tools to generate the final networks. Consequently, raw…

labapi is a Python library that enables computational workflows to connect to LabArchives’ electronic lab notebook (ELN). Without an Application Programming Interface (API) connection, researchers must manually add workflow outputs through the LabArchives web interface, navigating to the appropriate page and uploading…

How transient neural representations become integrated and stable enough to function as internal neural models remains incompletely understood. Grounded in efficient coding, Bayesian and predictive frameworks, recurrent and attractor dynamics, neural state-space models, and systems neuroscience, the Principle of…

Rapid and accurate microbial identification is critical for interpreting biological data in basic research and when making applied decisions on how to effectively treat patients and control human, animal, and plant diseases. Advancements in high-throughput sequencing have the potential to expedite fungal species…

Copy-number variants (CNVs) contribute to human disease and population trait variation. CNV detection from large whole-genome sequencing cohorts remains computationally demanding, as most methods require BAM or CRAM files. Genomic VCF (gVCF) files are smaller, routinely generated by standard variant-calling workflows…

Accurate, reliable, large-scale disease predictions are essential to ensure rice production. Existing disease prediction models often face a trade-off between interpretability and predictive capability, necessitating the integration of mechanistic knowledge and data-driven learning within a modelling framework.…

The exponential growth of genomic databases necessitates alignment-free methods for comparing genomes. While MinHash-based tools have revolutionized this field by efficiently estimating the Average Nucleotide Identity based on k-mer sets, they inherently discard structural genomic information. We introduce HyperSketch…

The development of climate-resilient crops would be greatly accelerated by models able to reason directly over plant genomic sequences and to pinpoint trait-associated regions or loci. Anticipating the impact of DNA base changes (variants) remains challenging, and understanding regulatory mechanisms is still an active…
