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.

Founded in 1985, the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) enables international science and engineering discoveries through advances in computational science and data-intensive, high-performance computing. SDSC is considered a leader in data-intensive computing, providing resources, services and expertise to the national research community including industry and academia. The mission of SDSC is to extend the reach of scientific accomplishments by providing tools such as high-performance hardware technologies, integrative software technologies, and deep interdisciplinary expertise to these communities. From 1997 to 2004, SDSC extended its leadership in computational science and engineering to form the National Partnership for Advanced Computational Infrastructure (NPACI), teaming with approximately 40 university partners around the country. Today, SDSC is an Organized Research Unit of the University of California, San Diego with a staff of talented scientists, software developers, and support personnel. A broad community of scientists, engineers, students, commercial partners, museums, and other facilities work with SDSC to develop cyberinfrastructure-enabled applications to help manage their extreme data needs. Projects run the gamut from creating astrophysics visualization for the American Museum of Natural History, to supporting more than 20,000 users per day to the Protein Data Bank, to performing large-scale, award-winning simulations of the origin of the universe or how a major earthquake would affect densely populated areas such as southern California. Along with these data cyberinfrastructure tools, SDSC also offers users full-time support including code optimization, training, 24-hour help desk services, portal development and a variety of other services. As one of the NSF's first national supercomputer centers, SDSC served as the data-intensive site lead in the agency's TeraGrid program, a multiyear effort to build and deploy the world's first large-scale infrastructure for open scientific research. SDSC currently provides advanced user support and expertise for XSEDE (Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment) the five-year NSF-funded program that succeeded TeraGrid in mid-2011.

https://www.uniklinik-freiburg.de/mr-en/research-groups/diffperf/fibertools.html

Implemented under MATLAB, this DTI image processing toolbox provides import-filters for several MR file standards, a processing unit to calculate the diffusion tensors; several GUI based tools to calculate fiber tracks and to evaluate the DTI dataset. The results can be filed as images with 3D impression or can be logged in formatted ASCII files. Tools and features: * DTI Processing Unit: Calculates the diffusion tensors and their eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Different file formats are supported (like DICOM, Bruker, binary files, Matlab structures). The standard SIEMENS and GE diffusion encoding schemes are supported; other schemes have to be defined in a separate text, .m or .mat file. * FiberTracking: ** Fiber tracking is realized by using the FACT algorithm (Mori et al., Annal. Neurol 1999). ** Probabilistic tracking realized by using the PiCo (Parker et al., JMRI 2003) approach but with DTI data as basis. It is possible to extract pathways between two seeds by combining two maps (Kreher et al., NeuroImage 2008). ** Global Fiber Tracking on basis of HARDI or DTI data. The method is based on the approach reported in (Marco Reisert et al: Global fiber reconstruction becomes practical. NeuroImage 54(2):955-62) * FiberViewer: ** Visualization and Navigation through different data modalities like DTI maps, fiber tracks, diffusion main directions. ** Supports different kinds of DTI maps (e.g. FA, Trace, lambda images ) ** Creation and manipulation of mask based ROIs. ** Selection of streamline fibers ** Visualization of probabilistic fiber tracking results ** Documentation by logging statistics of ROIs and fiber tracks into text files. ** Import/Export from/to ANALYZE or Nifti * 3D Visualizer: Visualization of map slices, ROIs, and fiber tracks with 3D impression. * Batch Editor: Automatic processing of high amounts of data. Possibility to link processing with SPM8 easily.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 15, 2013. AOBase is a database for antisense oligonucleotides (AOs) selection and design. AOBase is a database developed to facilitate Antisense Oligonucleotides (ODNs) selection for gene expression modulation and to provide a free data source for computer aided ODNs design. Information about valid and invalid ODNs reported in literature are collected and stored in the database, including oligo sequences, target sequences, secondary structures of the target sites, oligo activity measured, and the assay type used for activity measurement. The details on target RNA molecules and reference literature can be explored through the hyperlinks linked to GenBank and PubMed respectively. Each record can be searched for via two web retrieval interfaces: 1) TargetSearch interface, which allows users to query ODNs by name, accession number, or only imprecise descriptions of its target RNA; 2) AOSearch interface, which allows users to search ODNs with several parameters combined, such as oligo activity measured, oligo concentration applied, and motifs involved in oligo sequences. With these two retrieval interfaces, AOBase can be used to select effective ODNs for gene function exploration without expensive in vitro screening experiments, and contribute to mining rules for rational ODNs design. A user friendly interface to encourage data submission is provided.
