Software tool that not only compresses FASTQ-formatted DNA reads more compactly than gzip but also permits rapid search for k-mer queries within the archived sequences. The full FASTQ record of each matching read or read pair is returned, allowing the search results to be piped directly to any of the many standard tools that accept FASTQ data as input. Searchable compressed archive for DNA reads.

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/vsn.html
Software package that implements a method for normalizing microarray intensities, both between colours within array, and between arrays. The method uses a robust variant of the maximum-likelihood estimator for the stochastic model of microarray data described in the references. The model incorporates data calibration (a.k.a. normalization), a model for the dependence of the variance on the mean intensity, and a variance stabilizing data transformation. Differences between transformed intensities are analogous to normalized log-ratios. However, in contrast to the latter, their variance is independent of the mean, and they are usually more sensitive and specific in detecting differential transcription.

https://urgi.versailles.inra.fr/Tools/S-Mart
Software toolbox that manages your RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq data and also produces many different plots to visualize your data. It performs several tasks that are usually required during the analysis of mapped RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq reads, including data selection and data visualization. It includes the selection (or the exclusion) of the data that overlaps with a reference set, clustering and comparative analysis. It also provides many ways to visualize data: size of the reads, density on the genome, distance with respect to a reference set, and the correlation of two data sets (with cloud plots). A computer science background is not required to run it through a graphical interface and it can be run on any personal computer, yielding results within an hour for most queries.

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/SamSPECTRAL.html
Software that identifies cell population in flow cytometry data. It demonstrates significant advantages in proper identification of populations with non-elliptical shapes, low density populations close to dense ones, minor subpopulations of a major population and rare populations. It samples large data such that spectral clustering is possible while preserving density information in edge weights. More specifically, given a matrix of coordinates as input, SamSPECTRAL first builds the communities to sample the data points. Then, it builds a graph and after weighting the edges by conductance computation, the graph is passed to a classic spectral clustering algorithm to find the spectral clusters. The last stage of SamSPECTRAL is to combine the spectral clusters. The resulting connected components estimate biological cell populations in the data sample.

Software tool that screens DNA sequences for interspersed repeats and low complexity DNA sequences. The output of the program is a detailed annotation of the repeats that are present in the query sequence as well as a modified version of the query sequence in which all the annotated repeats have been masked (default: replaced by Ns). Currently over 56% of human genomic sequence is identified and masked by the program. Sequence comparisons in RepeatMasker are performed by one of several popular search engines including nhmmer, cross_match, ABBlast/WUBlast, RMBlast and Decypher. RepeatMasker makes use of curated libraries of repeats and currently supports Dfam ( profile HMM library ) and RepBase ( consensus sequence library ).
