A standardized bacterial taxonomy based on genome phylogeny substantially revises the tree of life
Nature Biotechnology, 2018 Taxonomy is an organizing principle of biology and is ideally based on evolutionary relationships among organisms. Development of a robust bacterial taxonomy has been hindered by an inability to obtain most bacteria in pure culture and, to a lesser ...

Lenia - Biology of Artificial Life [PDF]
Complex Systems, 2019, 28(3), 251-286, 2018 We report a new system of artificial life called Lenia (from Latin lenis "smooth"), a two-dimensional cellular automaton with continuous space-time-state and generalized local rule. Computer simulations show that Lenia supports a great diversity of complex autonomous patterns or "lifeforms" bearing resemblance to real-world microscopic organisms.

TaxoEnrich: Self-Supervised Taxonomy Completion via Structure-Semantic Representations [PDF]
, 2022 Taxonomies are fundamental to many real-world applications in various domains, serving as structural representations of knowledge. To deal with the increasing volume of new concepts needed to be organized as taxonomies, researchers turn to automatically completion of an existing taxonomy with new concepts.

Taxonomy in Biology and Visualization [PDF]
, 2012 Taxonomies are core to our everyday working. We constantly categorize entities to aid our understanding and navigation of the world around us. In the most basic of cases, we may categorize animals into dangerous or non-dangerous, pets or pests and people into friends and strangers.

Distributions of Triplets in Genetic Sequences [PDF]
, 1997 Distributions of triplets in some genetic sequences are examined and found to be well described by a 2-parameter Markov process with a sparse transition matrix. The variances of all the relevant parameters are not large, indicating that most sequences gather in a small region in the parameter space.

Review of Clustering Methods for Functional Data [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Functional data clustering is to identify heterogeneous morphological patterns in the continuous functions underlying the discrete measurements/observations. Application of functional data clustering has appeared in many publications across various fields of sciences, including but not limited to biology, (bio)chemistry, engineering, environmental ...
