Sequence Comparison Alignment-Free Approach Based on Suffix Tree and L-Words Frequency
The vast majority of methods available for sequence comparison rely on a first sequence alignment step, which requires a number of assumptions on evolutionary history and is sometimes very difficult or impossible to perform due to the abundance of gaps ...

Draft genome sequence of the rubber tree
Background Hevea brasiliensis, a member of the Euphorbiaceae family, is the major commercial source of natural rubber (NR). NR is a latex polymer with high elasticity, flexibility, and resilience that has played a critical role in the world economy since

Estimating dispersal rates and locating genetic ancestors with genome-wide genealogies
Spatial patterns in genetic diversity are shaped by individuals dispersing from their parents and larger-scale population movements. It has long been appreciated that these patterns of movement shape the underlying genealogies along the genome leading to

Natural Language Generation Using Dependency Tree Decoding for Spoken Dialog Systems
In this paper, we propose a new natural language generation (NLG) method for spoken dialog systems and demonstrate its capacity. Studies on NLG often employ sequence decoding, which generates the words comprising a sentence in sequential order and uses ...

SNP identification from RNA sequencing and linkage map construction of rubber tree for anchoring the draft genome. [PDF]
Hevea brasiliensis, or rubber tree, is an important crop species that accounts for the majority of natural latex production. The rubber tree nuclear genome consists of 18 chromosomes and is roughly 2.15 Gb.

Tree of life based on genome context networks. [PDF]
Efforts in phylogenomics have greatly improved our understanding of the backbone tree of life. However, due to the systematic error in sequence data, a sequence-based phylogenomic approach leads to well-resolved but statistically significant incongruence.

Structural Analysis of Polarizing Indels Argues the Root of the Tree of Life is Near the Chloroflexi [PDF]
Determining which branches of the tree of life have derived features narrows down the possible location of the root. Currently the polarization of indels done by Lake _et al_.^1-5^ and the polarizing transitions of Cavalier-Smith^6^ arrive at ...

Digital search trees and chaos game representation [PDF]
In this paper, we consider a possible representation of a DNA sequence in a quaternary tree, in which on can visualize repetitions of subwords. The CGR-tree turns a sequence of letters into a digital search tree (DST), obtained from the suffixes of the ...

Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Towards Bidirectional Hierarchical Representations for Attention-Based Neural Machine Translation
This paper proposes a hierarchical attentional neural translation model which focuses on enhancing source-side hierarchical representations by covering both local and global semantic information using a bidirectional tree-based encoder.
