Platform for parallel computation in the Amazon cloud, including machine learning ensembles written in R for computational biology and other areas of scientific research. Home to MR-Tandem, a hadoop-enabled fork of X!Tandem peptide search engine.

Metaboflux is a generic approach for predicting flux distribution in metabolic networks under multiple and various constraints deducted from the experiments, to increase the biological relevance of the model.

Benchmark instances for multiobjective combinatorial optimization

An open source system for supervised document classification based on statistical machine learning techniques. On the contrary of the state of art classification techniques, MyNook just requires the title of the document, not the content itself.

Next generation sequencing has opened new avenues for sequencing prokaryotes which were difficult or either impossible to culture. Now, it is possible to sequence all organisms present in a metagenomic community. However, a critical problem is to determine the host organism for each genomic fragment present in the dataset. This project provides the computational tools for assigning the organismal identity for each genomic scaffold in the given dataset.

Open Metaheuristic (oMetah) is a library aimed at the conception and the rigourous testing of metaheuristics (i.e. genetic algorithms, simulated annealing, ...). The code design is separated in components : algorithms, problems and a test report generator

The RDXplorer is a computational tool for copy number variants (CNV) detection in whole human genome sequence data using read depth (RD) coverage. CNV detection is based on the Event-Wise Testing (EWT) algorithm recently published by our group.

Syzygy is a toolkit for the analysis of targeted (pooled/individual) resequencing datasets.

TEACUP automates many aspects of running TCP performance experiments in a specially-constructed physical testbed. TEACUP enables repeatable testing of different TCP algorithms over a range of emulated network path conditions, bottleneck rate limits and bottleneck queuing disciplines. TEACUP utilises a text-based configuration file to define experiments as combinations of parameters specifying desired network path and end host conditions. When multiple values are provided (e.g. for TCP congestion control algorithm), an experiment is made up of multiple tests. For each experiment and test, TEACUP collects a range of data, such as tcpdump files of traffic seen or TCP stack information (e.g. using Web10G). TEACUP also collects a variety of metadata from the end hosts and bottleneck router, such as the actual OS/kernel version(s) used. TEACUP also provides some simple tools for analysing the results of experiments, such as plotting a flow's experienced RTT over time.

Quick reference for switching between mathematical computation environments for computer algebra, numeric processing and data visualisation. Examples are Matlab, IDL, SPlus, and their open-source counterparts Octave, Scilab, Python+NumPy and R.

Java-based scientific graphics with support for Java, Groovy, MATLAB, Python, the R statistical environment, Scala and SciLab.

Image analysis software for quantification of cell density in microbial cultures (e.g. S. cerevisiae) growing on solid agar plates. Specialises in detection of extremely low cell densities. Forms part of the Quantitative Fitness Analysis (QFA) workflow: http://research.ncl.ac.uk/qfa/ Suitable for high-throughput, genome-wide analysis of culture libraries when combined with the following qfa R package: http://qfa.r-forge.r-project.org/ This is the version presented, used and demonstrated in the following manuscripts: Lawless et al. 2010 http://dx.doi.org/10.1186/1471-2105-11-287 Addinall et al. 2011 http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pgen.1001362 Chang et al. 2011 http://dx.doi.org/10.1534/g3.111.000216 Banks et al. 2012 http://dx.doi.org/10.3791/4018 Development has been moved to github, where Colonyzer has undergone several recent improvements, particuarly making installation easier and analysis faster: https://github.com/CnrLwlss/Colonyzer

This project is a graphical user interface to the R statistical programming language designed for use in Clinical Chemistry. It allows the user to perform Passing Bablok, Deming and Linear Regression and to produce high quality images in any file format for publication. The front end is written in Python 3.3 and PyQt4 and the form was designed using Qt4 Designer. The statistical analysis is written in R. The compiled binary was made with cx_freeze. This software is free and open-source. It is released under the GNU Public license and comes with absolutely no warranty.

Processing of smallRNA-Seq data to gather biologically relevant information requires application of multiple statistical and bioinformatics tools from different sources, each focusing on a specific step of the analysis pipeline. The analytical workflow can be challenging for the continuous interventions by the operator, a critical factor when large numbers of datasets need to be analyzed at once. To allow a flexible and comprehensive analysis of smallRNA-Seq data we designed a novel modular pipeline, called iMir, integrating multiple open source modules and resource in an automated workflow, devising different statistical approaches to analyze data rigorously. iMir comprises also a Graphical User Interface (GUI), so that the pipeline is particularly suited for biologist and early stage bioinformaticians and produces both graphics and text outputs.

RGnome is a gtk based frontend for GNU R, which is a widely used language for statistical computing. It features a fully working R console and an editor with syntax highlighting.

vipR is a program to screen for sequence variants (SNPs, deletions) in sequence data generated by high-throughput-sequencing platforms. Information on this and other projects can be found on: http://www.altmann.eu
