This package includes BBMap, a short read aligner, as well as various other bioinformatic tools. It is written in pure Java, can run on any platform, and has no dependencies other than Java being installed (compiled for Java 6 and higher). All tools are efficient and multithreaded. BBMap: Short read aligner for DNA and RNA-seq data. Capable of handling arbitrarily large genomes with millions of scaffolds. Handles Illumina, PacBio, 454, and other reads; very high sensitivity and tolerant of errors and numerous large indels. Very fast. BBNorm: Kmer-based error-correction and normalization tool. Dedupe: Simplifies assemblies by removing duplicate or contained subsequences that share a target percent identity. Reformat: Reformats reads between fasta/fastq/scarf/fasta+qual/sam, interleaved/paired, and ASCII-33/64, at over 500 MB/s. BBDuk: Filters, trims, or masks reads with kmer matches to an artifact/contaminant file. ...and more!

The SourceForge OpenRasMol project is an adjunct to the RasMol and OpenrasMol project at http://rasmol.org. It is hoped that the SourceForge OpenRasMol project will provide a convenient focal point for active collaborative contributions.

Lush is a Lisp dialect with extensions for object-oriented and array-oriented programming. Lush is intended for prototyping numerically intensive applications and is designed for easy integration of existing C/C++/Fortran codes.

Entrainer is a Java program (JRE 1.8.0_40+ required, available from http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp) which creates binaural beat frequencies with sound, light and animations for the purpose of entraining one's brain waves.

ProtoMol is an object-oriented component based framework for molecular dynamics simulations.

Nemo is an individual-based, forward-time, genetically explicit, and stochastic simulation software designed for the study of the evolution of life history and quantitative traits, and genetic markers under various types of selection, in a spatially explicit, metapopulation framework.

The PUMA Repository is a collection of Pascal units for medical informatics. It contains reusable source code for a wide field of health-care application development. The code includes a support engine for the European Data Format (EDF and EDF+), converting functions for units of measurement and an HL7 engine. PUMA is compatible with Lazarus and Free Pascal. Some of the units also support other Pascal implementations including Delphi, winsoft Pocket Studio and other compilers.

A base for programs. Includes algorythms for Q-learning and SOM's etc. too. Examples: Hamron: Simulates evolution, uses the 2D-renderer. DriveUnit: created for school, for a robotic arm, uses the 3D-renderer. Hlearn: http://www.sagenb.org/home/pub/8

CvMob is an Open Source tool to automatic visual analysis of human movement. The software calculates the optical flow to generate data about trajectory, velocity and acceleration using low-quality videos. For more informations, please visit our website: http://www.cvmob.ufba.br/

Program for viewing, editing, manipulating, and analyzing absorbance spectra. Simple arithnetic includes making linear combinatins of up to 10 spectra. Advanced functions include fitting spectra as LC of standard basis spectra, singular value decomposition, Fourier transform, differentiation, integration, global fitting of 3D titration and kinetic data. Graphics features allow composing Figures and export to postscript files which can be converted to pdf, imported into photoshop for rasterization, or used in page design software like Illustrator.

Sampsize computes sample size and power for surveys, comparative studies including non-inferiority trials and case-control studies.

The JChemPaint Applet and Swing Application are Java programs for drawing 2D chemical structures like those found in most chemistry textbooks. It is based on the Chemistry Development Kit (cdk.sf.net). Downloads, tracker, and source code repository can be found on https://jchempaint.github.io

Inference of recent migration rates between populations using multi-locus marker genotype data.

JOELib/JOELib2 is a cheminformatics library which supports SMARTS substructure search, descriptor calculation, processing/filtering pipes, conversion of file formats, 100% pure Java, and interfaces to external programs (e.g. Ghemical) are available.

Lucy is a program for DNA sequence quality trimming and vector removal. Its purpose is to process DNA sequence data acquired from DNA sequencers to prepare the data for downstream processing applications such as genome assembly.

ABE is a small, fast and convenient program for visualizing and modeling experimental bioassay data. The data can be modeled using either polynomials or a more specific four-parameter model based upon the standard, sigmoidal dose-response curve.

AgED performs automatic feature extraction from your image data and allows for their visualization and management. AgED relies on Elliptic Fourier Transcriptors to extract features from large quantities of image data. These features can then be visualized and you can evaluate them in a statistical manner. This type of analysis is particularly worthwile in the assessment of biological experiments. Elliptic Fourier Descriptors have been applied in a large range of applications in biology. Examples include the distinguishing of leaf shapes, fish sex, organ size and so forth. AgED is intended for scientific use only. Use and distribution of this technology is subject to the Java Research License included herein. AgED comes with absolutely no warranty.

BIRAP (Bacterial Intergenic Region Analysis Pipeline) is an open source, easy to use Perl pipeline that can be used to re-annotate bacterial genomes using experimental data. The tool integrates expression profile derived from RNA-seq and/or proteogenomics, compares it with existing in silico annotation and helps validate annotation, identify novel protein coding regions, putative non-coding RNA as well as help correct er-rors in the existing annotation. The pipeline requires “pileup” output from SAMtools for RNA-seq data and peptide/ePST locus file (GFF) from the Proteogenomic Mapping tool for prote-ogenomics data along with the genome and existing in silico annotation. When information regarding the locus of promot-ers and terminators in the genome (in .coords format) is pro-vided, the pipeline will also help identify non-coding RNA.
