Identifying optimal catalyst compositions and reaction conditions is central in catalysis research, yet remains challenging due to the vast multidimensional design spaces encompassing both continuous and categorical parameters. In this…
Summary: Data management in clinical metabolomics studies is often inadequate. To improve this situation we created LabPipe to provide a guided, customisable approach to study-specific sample collection. It is driven through a local client…
There is a growing awareness of the important roles that microbial communities play in complex biological processes. Modern investigation of these often uses next generation sequencing of metagenomic samples to determine community…
As antibiotic resistance continues to pose a significant threat to public health, alternative treatments are urgently needed. Phage therapy, which utilizes bacteriophages to specifically target bacterial pathogens, has emerged as a…
Evaluating the performance of heuristic optimisation algorithms is essential to determine how well they perform under various conditions. Recently, the BIAS toolbox was introduced as a behaviour benchmark to detect structural bias (SB) in…
Biological age, which may be older or younger than chronological age due to factors such as genetic predisposition, environmental exposures, serves as a meaningful biomarker of aging processes and can inform risk stratification, treatment…
The AUTO-PCOS Classification Challenge seeks to advance the diagnostic capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) in identifying Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) through automated classification of healthy and unhealthy ultrasound frames.…
The cost of DNA sequencing has dropped exponentially over the past decade, making genomic data accessible to a growing number of scientists. In bioinformatics, localization of short DNA sequences (reads) within large genomic sequences is…
MPAgenomics, standing for multi-patients analysis (MPA) of genomic markers, is an R-package devoted to: (i) efficient segmentation, and (ii) genomic marker selection from multi-patient copy number and SNP data profiles. It provides wrappers…
Tag-Pag is an application designed to simplify the categorization of web pages, a task increasingly common for researchers who scrape web pages to analyze individuals' browsing patterns or train machine learning classifiers. Unlike existing…
Background: Conventional electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis faces a persistent dichotomy: expert-driven features ensure interpretability but lack sensitivity to latent patterns, while deep learning offers high accuracy but functions as a…
Motivation: Peptide-protein interactions (PepPIs) are central to cellular regulation and peptide therapeutics, but experimental characterization remains too slow for large-scale screening. Existing methods usually emphasize either…
