The CHIC Analysis Software v1.0
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we describe CHIC (Correspondence & HIerarchical Cluster) Analysis, a specialized software package for Correspondence Analysis-CA (Simple and Multiple) and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (Benzécri’s chi-square distance, Ward’s linkage criterion). The implementation of CA is in line with both the French approach and the Gifi System of data analysis. CHIC Analysis combines the graphical interface features of CodeGear Delphi with the computational power of MatLab. The software was implemented as an attempt to contribute to the effectiveness and reliability of CA. For this purpose, it offers a variety of aids to the results’ interpretation and tools for the construction of special data tables. A modified version of the CA algorithm is implemented in the multivariate case. Special emphasis has been put on the graphical options for biplots, maps and dendrograms.

CHIC: a short read aligner for pan-genomic references
Recently the topic of computational pan-genomics has gained increasing attention, and particularly the problem of moving from a single-reference paradigm to a pan-genomic one. Perhaps the simplest way to represent a pan-genome is to represent it as a set of sequences. While indexing highly repetitive collections has been intensively studied in the computer science community, the research has fo...

The PHylogenetic Analysis with Space/Time models (PHAST) software package consists of a collection of command-line programs and supporting libraries for comparative genomics. PHAST is best known as the engine behind the Conservation tracks in the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) Genome Browser. However, it also includes several other tools for phylogenetic modeling and functional ele...
متن کاملQuantification and monitoring of visual disturbances for patients with cataracts using Halo v1.0 software
We objectively measured optical quality and quantified such nightvision disturbances as glare, starbursts, and halos perceived by patients diagnosed with cataracts. For this purpose, retinal-image quality was measured with a double-pass device (OQAS, Visiometrics SL). Visual-discrimination capacity was quantified by the disturbance index under low illumination (Halo v1.0 software, Laboratory of...
متن کاملBoolVar/PB v1.0, a java library for translating pseudo-Boolean constraints into CNF formulae
BoolVar/pb v1.0 is an open source java library dedicated to the translation of pseudo-Boolean constraints into cnf formulae. Input constraints can be categorized with tags. Several encoding schemes are implemented in a way that each input constraint can be translated using one or several encoders, according to the related tags. The library can be easily extended by adding new encoders and / or ...
متن کاملCharacterization of Thermotolerant Chitinases Encoded by a Brevibacillus laterosporus Strain Isolated from a Suburban Wetland
To isolate and characterize chitinases that can be applied with practical advantages, 57 isolates of chitin-degrading bacteria were isolated from the soil of a suburban wetland. 16S rRNA gene analysis revealed that the majority of these strains belonged to two genera, Paenibacillus and Brevibacillus. Taking thermostability into account, the chitinases (ChiA and ChiC) of a B. laterosporus strain...
