eLife, 2018 Disentangling the effect on genomic diversity of natural selection from that of demography is notoriously difficult, but necessary to properly reconstruct the history of species.

Computational modelling of plasticity-led evolution
Biophysical Reviews, 2022 Plasticity-led evolution is a form of evolution where a change in the environment induces novel traits via phenotypic plasticity, after which the novel traits are genetically accommodated over generations under the novel environment. This mode of evolution is expected to resolve the problem of gradualism (i.e., evolution by the slow accumulation of ...

Population-level diversity-disease relationship (p-DDR) in the human microbiome associated diseases
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021 Diversity-disease relationship (DDR) is a de facto standard analysis in the studies of human microbiome associated diseases (MADs). For example, the species richness or Shannon entropy are routinely compared between the healthy and diseased groups ...

Evolutions equations in computational anatomy [PDF]
NeuroImage, 2009 One of the main purposes in computational anatomy is the measurement and statistical study of anatomical variations in organs, notably in the brain or the heart. Over the last decade, our group has progressively developed several approaches for this problem, all related to the Riemannian geometry of groups of diffeomorphisms and the shape spaces on ...

Localization of adaptive variants in human genomes using averaged one-dependence estimation
Nature Communications, 2018 Selective sweeps are events in which beneficial mutations spread rapidly through a population. Here, Sugden et al. develop SWIF(r), a probabilistic classification framework for detecting and localizing selective sweeps, and apply it to genomic data from ...

New genome assembly of the barn owl (Tyto alba alba)
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 New genomic tools open doors to study ecology, evolution, and population genomics of wild animals. For the Barn owl species complex, a cosmopolitan nocturnal raptor, a very fragmented draft genome was assembled for the American species (Tyto furcata ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 The human digestive tract (DT) is differentiated into diverse niches and harbors the greatest microbiome diversity of our bodies. Segata et al. (2012) found that the microbiome of diverse habitats along the DT may be classified as four categories or ...

Quantifying the human vaginal community state types (CSTs) with the species specificity index [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 The five community state types (CSTs) first identified by Ravel et al. (2011) offered a powerful scheme to classify the states of human vaginal microbial communities (HVMC).

Evolution of Human Computer Interaction [PDF]
Scientific Visualization, 2020 The work is devoted to the review of the development the human-computer interaction. In the first sections the history of computing in the "pre-computer" era is briefly described and then the early history of modern computing, methods of the first computers controlling and the tasks of programmers at this stage are described.

Functional and transcriptional connectivity of communities in breast cancer co-expression networks
Applied Network Science, 2019 Transcriptional co-expression networks represent the concerted gene regulation programs by means of statistical inference of co-expression patterns. The rich phenomenology of transcriptional processes behind complex phenotypes such as cancer, is often ...
