http://www.oeb.harvard.edu/faculty/hartl/old_site/lab/publications/GeneMerge.html

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVCE, documented September 2, 2016. Web-based and standalone application that returns a wide range of functional genomic data for a given set of study genes and provides rank scores for over-representation of particular functions or categories in the data. It uses the hypergeometric test statistic which returns statistically correct results for samples of all sizes and is the #2 fastest GO tool available (Khatri and Draghici, 2005). GeneMerge can be used with any discrete, locus-based annotation data, including, literature references, genetic interactions, mutant phenotypes as well as traditional Gene Ontology queries. GeneMerge is particularly useful for the analysis of microarray data and other large biological datasets. The big advantage of GeneMerge over other similar programs is that you are not limited to analyzing your data from the perspective of a pre-packaged set of gene-association data. You can download or create gene-association files to analyze your data from an unlimited number of perspectives. Platform: Online tool, Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

https://www.synapse.org/

A cloud-based collaborative platform which co-locates data, code, and computing resources for analyzing genome-scale data and seamlessly integrates these services allowing scientists to share and analyze data together. Synapse consists of a web portal integrated with the R/Bioconductor statistical package and will be integrated with additional tools. The web portal is organized around the concept of a Project which is an environment where you can interact, share data, and analysis methods with a specific group of users or broadly across open collaborations. Projects provide an organizational structure to interact with data, code and analyses, and to track data provenance. A project can be created by anyone with a Synapse account and can be shared among all Synapse users or restricted to a specific team. Public data projects include the Synapse Commons Repository (SCR) (syn150935) and the metaGenomics project (syn275039). The SCR provides access to raw data and phenotypic information for publicly available genomic data sets, such as GEO and TCGA. The metaGenomics project provides standardized preprocessed data and precomputed analysis of the public SCR data.

http://www.clairlib.org

A suite of open-source Perl modules intended to simplify a number of generic tasks in natural language processing (NLP), information retrieval (IR), and network analysis (NA). Its architecture also allows for external software to be plugged in with very little effort. The latest version of clairlib is 1.06 which was released on March 2009 and includes about 130 modules implementing a wide range of functionalities. Clairlib is distributed in two forms: * Clairlib-core, which has essential functionality and minimal dependence on external software, and * Clairlib-ext, which has extended functionality that may be of interest to a smaller audience. Much can be done using Clairlib on its own. Some of the things that Clairlib can do are: Tokenization, Summarization, Document Clustering, Document Indexing, Web Graph Analysis, Network Generation, Power Law Distribution Analysis, Network Analysis, RandomWalks on Graphs, Tf-IDF, Perceptron Learning and Classification, and Phrase Based Retrieval and Fuzzy OR Queries.
