A software package that implements the probabilistic record linkage technique (PRL). This is a new, improved, open-source, multi-platform version of the previously available program, by the same authors.

Mendel’s Accountant is a biologically realistic, forward-time, parallel, numerical simulation program which models genetic change within a population, as affected by mutation and selection.

TASSEL is a bioinformatics software package that can analyze diversity for sequences, SNPs, or SSRs. Genotype/phenotype associations can be carried out by GLM or a mixed model. Estimates distance and linkage disequilibrium statistics.

NOVA is a program designed to analysis complexome profiling data (Heide et al., 2012). A graphical user interface (GUI) provides various visualization tools, such as heat maps and 2D plots. Several hierarchical clustering algorithms (e.g., single linkage, average linkage, Wards linkage), different distance measures (e.g., Euclidean distance, Manhattan distance, Pearson distance), and various normalization techniques are implemented. Many additional functions like zooming, searching for proteins, image export, and automatic file format recognition support intuitive handling for biologists. ...

PriorityPruner is a software program which can prune a list of SNPs that are in high linkage disequilibrium (LD) with other SNPs in the list, while preferentially keeping SNPs of higher priority (e.g., the most significant SNPs in a genome-wide association study).

...We demonstrate its (1) generality, by reconstructing cell lineages in four-dimensional, terabyte-sized image data of fruit-fly, zebrafish and mouse embryos, acquired with three different types of fluorescence microscopes, (2) scalability, by analyzing advanced stages of development with up to 20,000 cells per time point, at 26,000 cells min-1 on a single computer workstation, and (3) ease of use, by adjusting only two parameters across all data sets and providing visualization and editing tools for efficient data curation. Our approach achieves on average 97.0% linkage accuracy across all species and imaging modalities." *Please cite this paper if you use this code for your research

CViT - Chromosome Viewing Tool. A collection of Perl scripts that enable quick visualizations of features on linkage groups, psuedochromosomes or cytogenetic maps. Intended for whole-genome views of data but can be used to create images of single chromosomes/linkage groups, contigs, or BACs, or even proteins -- any feature that has a location on a backbone. Handles most standard genetic/genomic coordinate systems. Reads GFF3 data and produces a PNG or SVG image.

MendelScan is a tool for prioritizing candidate variants in family-based studies of inherited disease.

Simulation of allele-specific RNA-seq data

Febrl (Freely Extensible Biomedical Record Linkage) does data standardisation (segmentation and cleaning) and probabilistic record linkage ("fuzzy" matching) of one or more files or data sources which do not share a unique record key or identifier.

Populating Research Data Australia (RDA) with collection descriptions of Australian-related biomolecular data held in the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) databanks. This project is ANDS-funded through the DIISR Education Infrastructure Fund.

slclust: a utility that performs single-linkage clustering with the option of applying a Jaccard similarity coefficient to break weakly bound clusters into distinct clusters. The slclust utility is written in ANSI C++.

Our software can test for HLA allele and amino-acid differences between two populations. It examines zygosity, tests for strongest association, interaction & linkage disequilibrium among amino acid epitopes.

HaploPainter - a pedigree and haplotypes drawing tool written in Perl/Tk. The software processes pedigree information in standard linkage formats combining haplotype information outputs from Simwalk, Genehunter, Allegro and Merlin.
