The next generation sequencing (NGS) techniques have enabled biologists to generate large DNA sequences in a high-throughput and low-cost way. Assembly of NGS reads still face great challenges due to the short reads and enormous high volume. In this paper, we presented a new assembler, called GAMR, which is based on bi-directed de Bruijn graph and implemented using MapReduce framework. We designed...
The rapid development of gene ontology (GO) and huge amount of biomedical data annotated by GO terms necessitate computation of semantic similarity of GO terms and, in turn, measurement of functional similarity of genes based on their annotations. In this paper we propose a novel and efficient method to measure the semantic similarity of GO terms. The proposed method addresses the limitations in existing...
Biologists have become increasingly dependent on bioinformatics tools to analyze and interpret their datasets. The number, variety and complexity of these bioinformatics tools have increased dramatically and they have become more and more computationally complex, expensive and resource intensive. Powerful workflow design systems have been developed to automate the execution of set of tools for a specific...
To address the need for an efficient and effective biomedical information retrieval system, this paper presents an ontology-graph based web tool, G-Bean (graph based biomedical search engine), for searching biomedical documents from the MEDLINE database. This search engine uses an ontology-graph based query expansion technique to expand the initial query with additional query terms and/or more specific...
