An ImageJ plugin for morphological data mining, three-dimensional modeling and image stitching, registration, editing and annotation. Two independent modalities exist: either XML-based projects, working directly with the file system, or database-based projects, working on top of a local or remote PostgreSQL database. What can you do with it? * Semantic segmentation editor: order segmentations in tree hierarchies, whose template is exportable for reuse in other, comparable projects. * Model, visualize and export 3D. * Work from your laptop on your huge, remote image storage. * Work with an endless number of images, limited only by the hard drive capacity. Dozens of formats supported thanks to LOCI Bioformats and ImageJ. * Import stacks and even entire grids (montages) of images, automatically stitch them together and homogenize their histograms for best montaging quality. * Add layers conveniently. A layer represents, for example, one 50 nm section (for TEM) or a confocal section. Each layer has its own Z coordinate and thickness, and contains images, labels, areas, nodes of 3d skeletons, profiles... * Insert layer sets into layers: so your electron microscopy serial sections can live inside your optical microscopy sections. * Run any ImageJ plugin on any image. * Measure everything: areas, volumes, pixel intensities, etc. using both built-in data structures and segmentation types, and standard ImageJ ROIs. And with double dissectors! * Visualize RGB color channels changing the opacity of each on the fly, non-destructively. * Annotate images non-destructively with floating text labels, which you can rotate/scale on the fly and display in any color. * Montage/register/stitch/blend images manually with transparencies, semiautomatically, or fully automatically within and across sections, with translation, rigid, similarity and affine models with automatically extracted SIFT features. * Correct the lens distortion present in the images, like those generated in transmission electron microscopy. * Add alpha masks to images using ROIs, for example to split images in two or more parts, or to remove the borders of an image or collection of images. * Model neuronal arbors with 3D skeletons (with areas or radiuses), and synapses with connectors. * Undo all steps. And much more...

The SEED is a framework to support comparative analysis and annotation of genomes. The cooperative effort focuses on the development of the comparative genomics environment and, more importantly, on the development of curated genomic data. Curation of genomic data (annotation) is done via the curation of subsystems by an expert annotator across many genomes, not on a gene by gene basis. From the curated subsystems we extract a set of freely available protein families (FIGfams). These FIGfams form the core component of our RAST automated annotation technology. Answering numerous requests for automatic Seed-Quality annotations for more or less complete bacterial and archaeal genomes, we have established the free RAST-Server (RAST=Rapid Annotation using Subsytems Technology). Using similar technology, we make the Metagenomics-RAST-Server freely available. We also provide a SEED-Viewer that allows read-only access to the latest curated data sets. We currently have 58 Archaea, 902 Bacteria, 562 Eukaryota, 1254 Plasmids and 1713 Viruses in our database. All tools and datasets that make up the SEED are in the public domain and can be downloaded at ftp://ftp.theseed.org

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on January 14, 2023. Infrastructure for sharing data, tools and services, this virtual research environment (VRE) supports e-Neuroscience and is designed to provide services for data and processing of that data. While the system is initially focused on electrophysiology data (neural activity recordings are the primary data types), it is equally applicable to many domains outside neuroscience. The Portal Provides: * User login and customization. * Data upload/download. * Data handling including custom permissions for public, shared or private data. * The ability to invoke custom public, shared or private services that consume and produce data. For example, it would allow spike series to be run through a sorter, producing new data representing the sorted spikes. * The ability to host services written in a number of languages including, but not limited to Matlab, R, Python, Perl, Java. * A system to support metadata for data objects, which provides extensive support for entering metadata at the point of upload, and allows the generation of metadata from services to provide provenance information. * The ability to invoke additional visualization for the data, for example, via the Signal Data Explorer. A core part is the development of: (i) minimum reporting guidelines for annotation of data and other computational resources for the purpose of sharing, and; (ii) intermediate formats and APIs for translation between proprietary and bespoke data types. These recommendations are being implemented and the global community is encouraged both to engage in their specification and make use of them for their own data sharing systems. * MINI: Minimum Information about a Neuroscience Investigation - This framework represents the formalized opinion of the CARMEN consortium and its associates, and identifies the minimum reporting information required to support the use of electrophysiology in a neuroscience study, for submission to the CARMEN system. * NDTF: Neurophysiology Data Translation Format - This framework provides a vendor-independent mechanism for translating between raw and processed neurphysiology data in the form of time and image series. They are implementing NDTF in CARMEN but it may also be useful for third party applications.
