The influence of feature selection methods on accuracy, stability and interpretability of molecular signatures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Motivation: Biomarker discovery from high-dimensional data is a crucial problem with enormous applications in biology and medicine. It is also extremely challenging from a statistical viewpoint, but surprisingly few studies have investigated the relative

Population genomics of Zea species identifies selection signatures during maize domestication and adaptation

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2022
Maize (Zea mays L. ssp. mays) was domesticated from teosinte (Zea mays ssp. parviglumis) about 9000 years ago in southwestern Mexico and adapted to a range of environments worldwide.

YODA: selecting signature oligonucleotides [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2004
Selecting oligonucleotide probes for use in microarray design, and other applications requiring signature sequences, involves identifying sequences which will bind strongly to their intended target, while binding only weakly (or preferably, not at all) to non-target sequences which may be present in the hybridization reaction.

Genomics of Adaptations in Ungulates

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Ungulates are a group of hoofed animals that have long interacted with humans as essential sources of food, labor, clothing, and transportation. These consist of domesticated, feral, and wild species raised in a wide range of habitats and biomes.

Molecular Signatures of Natural Selection [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Genetics, 2005
There is an increasing interest in detecting genes, or genomic regions, that have been targeted by natural selection. The interest stems from a basic desire to learn more about evolutionary processes in humans and other organisms, and from the realization that inferences regarding selection may provide important functional information.

Assessing the Role of Ancestral Fragments and Selection Signatures by Whole-Genome Scanning in Dehong Humped Cattle at the China–Myanmar Border

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Dehong humped cattle are precious livestock resources of Yunnan Province, China; they have typical zebu traits. Here, we investigated their genetic characteristics using whole-genome resequencing data of Dehong humped animals (n = 18). When comparing our

Object identification by using orthonormal circus functions from the trace transform [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper we present an efficient way to both compute and extract salient information from trace transform signatures to perform object identification tasks.
