Motivation: Modelling methods that find structure in data are necessary with the current large volumes of genomic data, and there have been various efforts to find subsets of genes exhibiting consistent patterns over subsets of treatments.…

Phylogenetic networks are increasingly used in evolutionary biology to represent the history of species that have undergone reticulate events such as horizontal gene transfer, hybrid speciation and recombination. One of the most fundamental…

A recent study has shown that large-scale visual datasets are very biased: they can be easily classified by modern neural networks. However, the concrete forms of bias among these datasets remain unclear. In this study, we propose a…

Visual data is used in numerous different scientific workflows ranging from remote sensing to ecology. As the amount of observation data increases, the challenge is not just to make accurate predictions but also to understand the underlying…

There is a warning light for the loss of plant habitats worldwide that entails concerted efforts to conserve plant biodiversity. Thus, plant species classification is of crucial importance to address this environmental challenge. In recent…

The Tree of Life is the graphical structure that represents the evolutionary process from single-cell organisms at the origin of life to the vast biodiversity we see today. Reconstructing this tree from genomic sequences is challenging due…

In this paper we introduce a variation on the multidimensional segment tree, formed by unifying different interpretations of the dimensionalities of the data structure. We give some new definitions to previously well-defined concepts that…

In this paper, multivalued data or multiple values variables are defined. They are typical when there is some intrinsic uncertainty in data production, as the result of imprecise measuring instruments, such as in image recognition, in human…

Motivation: While the majority of gene histories found in a clade of organisms are expected to be generated by a common process (e.g. the coalescent process), it is well-known that numerous other coexisting processes (e.g. horizontal gene…

Multilayer relationships among entities and information about entities must be accompanied by the means to analyze, visualize, and obtain insights from such data. We present open-source software (muxViz) that contains a collection of…

Gene innovation is a key mechanism on the evolution and phenotypic diversity of life forms. There is a need for tools able to study gene innovation across an increasingly large number of genomic sequences to maximally capitalise our…

Tractography from high-dimensional diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) data allows brain's structural connectivity analysis. Recent dMRI studies aim to compare connectivity patterns across subject groups and disease populations to…

Graphs are interesting structures: extremely useful to depict real-life problems, extremely easy to understand given a sketch, extremely complicated to represent formally, extremely complicated to compare. Phylogeny is the study of the…

Evolvability refers to the ability of an individual genotype (solution) to produce offspring with mutually diverse phenotypes. Recent research has demonstrated that divergent search methods, particularly novelty search, promote evolvability…

How to extract useful insights from data is always a challenge, especially if the data is multidimensional. Often, the data can be organized according to certain hierarchical structure that are stemmed either from data collection process or…

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have recently achieved impressive results for many real-world applications, and many GAN variants have emerged with improvements in sample quality and training stability. However, they have not been…

We propose Combined Selection and Uncertainty Visualizer (CSUV), which estimates the set of true covariates in high-dimensional linear regression and visualizes selection uncertainties by exploiting the (dis)agreement among different base…

Deep neural networks (DNN) have been used successfully in many scientific problems for their high prediction accuracy, but their application to genetic studies remains challenging due to their poor interpretability. In this paper, we…

Cultural phylogenies, or "trees" of culture, are typically built using methods from biology that use similarities and differences in artifacts to infer the historical relationships between the populations that produced them. While these…

Connected acyclic graphs (trees) are data objects that hierarchically organize categories. Collections of trees arise in a diverse variety of fields, including evolutionary biology, public health, machine learning, social sciences and…
