The document discusses gene prediction in biological sequence analysis. It begins by providing background on:
- DNA being composed of nucleotides A, T, G, C arranged in triplets called codons
- Genes occurring on both DNA strands in three reading frames
- Specific start and stop codons indicating the beginning and end of genes
It then notes that hidden Markov models are commonly used for gene prediction, with the Viterbi algorithm used to find the most probable gene sequence given the observed DNA sequence. Finally, it states that constraints can be used to represent the structure of hidden Markov models for gene prediction problems.
The document provides a 6-step guide to designing sgRNA-coding oligonucleotides for CRISPR experiments. It explains that the oligos are used to clone DNA sequences encoding sgRNA into plasmids. The 6 steps are: 1) determine the genomic target sequence, 2) add the PAM sequence, 3) design the spacer sequence, 4) add overhangs to the spacer for the top oligo, 5) design the bottom oligo as the complement, and 6) check that the oligos anneal correctly. Verification steps are also recommended to check for errors like confusing DNA and RNA sequences.
The document describes the process of protein synthesis, which has two main steps: transcription and translation. During transcription, RNA polymerase binds to DNA and builds an mRNA strand using the coding region as a template, before the mRNA strand exits the nucleus. Translation then occurs on ribosomes, where tRNAs bring amino acids to the mRNA start codon and assemble a protein based on the mRNA sequence until reaching the stop codon.
The document describes the Sanger method for DNA sequencing, which was developed in 1977. The method uses DNA polymerase and dideoxynucleotides to terminate DNA strand elongation at random positions, generating DNA fragments of different lengths that can be used to determine the DNA sequence. The sequence is read by comparing the fragment lengths generated from reactions with different labeled dideoxynucleotides.
This document discusses using qPCR arrays to screen and validate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). It describes how iPSCs are created by reprogramming somatic cells, and the need to validate pluripotency. Validation methods discussed include checking for pluripotency biomarkers using qPCR arrays, which allow screening multiple genes from multiple samples simultaneously. The document provides an example of a qBiomarker iPSC screening PCR array, which contains assays for 8 predictive pluripotency biomarkers, a normalization gene, and control wells to screen 8 samples per plate for pluripotent stem cell characterization.
This presentation is centered on initiative and where a judge can expend it. We are going to discuss Judge Projects, draw parallels to open source projects and see what people can offer and gain from such activities. We will be speaking about the more popular and the more famous Projects, such as the Annotated IPG team or the teams behind [O] blogs. Our focus is not only projects though. We will also analyze what an active judge can do for his/her community on a local level. This is not meant to be a one-man-show, but rather, an exchange of ideas and why not - positive promises!

Goodness–of–fit tests for regression models: the functional data caseNeuroMat
In this talk the topic of the goodness–of–fit for regression models with functional covariates is considered. Although several papers have been published in the last two decades for the checking of regression models, the case where the covariates are functional is quite recent and has became of interest in the last years. We will review the very recent advances in this area and we will propose a new goodness–of–fit test for the null hypothesis of a functional linear model with scalar response. Our test is based on a generalization to the functional framework of a previous one, designed for the goodness–of–fit of regression models with multivariate covariates using random projections. The test statistic is easy to compute using geometrical and matrix arguments, and simple to calibrate in its distribution by a wild bootstrap on the residuals. Some theoretical aspects are derived and the finite sample properties of the test are illustrated by a simulation study. Finally, the test is applied to real data for checking the assumption of the functional linear model and a graphical tool is introduced.

The document describes the Gemoda algorithm for discovering motifs (patterns) in biomolecular data sequences. Gemoda is designed to be exhaustive in finding all maximal motifs and have descriptive power by using a generic, context-dependent definition of similarity. It proceeds in three steps: comparison of all pairwise windows to create a similarity graph, clustering similar windows into elementary motifs, and convolving the motifs to find longer, maximal motifs. Gemoda can be applied to problems like discovering protein domains, solving motif discovery challenges, and finding conserved structures in protein structures.

Common methods for finding genes like the use of consensus splice sites and coding bias are also summarized.
SAGE- Serial Analysis of Gene ExpressionAashish Patel
Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE) is a method to quantify gene expression in cells. It involves extracting short sequence tags from mRNA transcripts and concatenating them for efficient sequencing. This allows simultaneous analysis of thousands of transcripts. SAGE provides quantitative gene expression data without prior knowledge of genes and can identify differentially expressed genes between cell types or conditions. While powerful, it requires substantial sequencing and computational analysis of large datasets.

Efficient Tabling of Structured Data Using Indexing and Program TransformationChristian Have
The document discusses tabling of structured data in Prolog. It presents a workaround that uses indexing and program transformation to achieve efficient tabling. The workaround represents terms as sets of facts using unique integers as pointers. This avoids copying structure during tabling and enables constant time lookups. Examples showing the workaround applied to edit distance and hidden Markov models are provided. Benchmarking shows the workaround provides O(1) time and space complexity compared to O(n2) for naive tabling of structured data.
Constraints and Global Optimization for Gene Prediction Overlap ResolutionChristian Have
We apply constraints and global optimization to the problem of restricting overlapping of gene predictions for prokaryotic genomes. We investigate existing heuristic methods and show how they may be expressed using Constraint Handling Rules. Furthermore, we integrate existing methods in a global optimization procedure expressed as probabilistic model in the PRISM language. This approach yields an optimal (highest scoring) subset of predictions that satisfy the constraints. Experimental results indicate accuracy comparable to the heuristic approaches.
This document describes stochastic definite clause grammars (SDCG), which extend definite clause grammars (DCG) with probabilities. SDCG transforms a DCG into a stochastic logic program using PRISM, allowing probabilistic inferences and parameter learning. The probabilistic model assigns a random variable to each rule expansion. SDCG introduces syntax extensions like regular expressions and macros to make grammars more concise. Conditioned rules allow modeling higher-order hidden Markov models by selecting rules based on variable unification. SDCG provides tools for parsing sentences and learning rule probabilities from data.
Inference with Constrained Hidden Markov Models in PRISMChristian Have
The document discusses constrained hidden Markov models (CHMMs) and their implementation in the PRISM probabilistic logic programming language.

It describes representing CHMMs as constraint programs, adapting the Viterbi algorithm for inference in CHMMs, and implementing CHMMs efficiently in PRISM. The goal is to explore using probabilistic logic programming with PRISM for biological sequence analysis applications.

The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

16. Gene-finding with Hidden Markov Models
Hidden Markov Models )HMMs( commonly used for gene prediction
A Hidden Markov Model is a quadruple < S,A,T,E>
S is a set of states
A is a set of emission symbols
T is a set of transition probabilities
E is a set of emission probabilities
An observation is a sequence of emissions
Transition and emission probabilities can be derived from sample
observations though parameter estimation
Decoding finds the most probable sequence of states corresponding to an
observation
18. Decoding: The Viterbi algorithm
Finding the most probable path for a given sequence:
argmax P(state sequence | observation)
Method:
Incrementally keep track of the most probable path to a given state
Dynamic programming )tabling in Prolog/PRISM(
Time steps )observation(
States
Time complexity O(|states| * |observation|)
19. Predicting is decoding
Decoding of an HMM may be considered as an optimization problem:
●
We have a set of variables T0 .. Tn, one for each time step
A set of constraints, C, on these variables:
A state S is in the domain of Ti iff there is a state in the domain of Ti-1 from which there is a
transition to S and the state has an emission corresponding to the emission in the observation
● Goal: Optimize P(state sequence| observation), subject to C
T0 T1 T2 T3 Tn
States
Time steps )observation(
➔ Accomplished with Viterbialgorithm in O)| states| *| observation| ) using DP
20. Constraints as model structure
● The structure of the HMM consists of
● states
● allowed transitions between these states
● possible emissions from these states
● The structure of the HMM defines a regular language
● Can model )only( regular languages, but..
● Not all regular languages can be modeled equally compact
● Some regular languages requires an exponential amount of states
Consider a fully-connected
automaton with only N
states:
All-different: No state visited more than once
