Classification of Gene Expression Data by Gene Combination using Fuzzy LogicIJARIIE JOURNAL
The goal of microarray experiments is to identify genes that are differentially transcribed with respect to different
biological conditions of cell cultures and samples. Among the large amount of genes presented in gene expression
data, only a small fraction of them is effective for performing a certain diagnostic test. Hence, one of the major tasks
with the gene expression data is to find groups of co regulated genes whose collective expression is strongly
associated with the sample categories or response variables. A framework is improved/ modified in this report to
find informative gene combinations and to classify gene combinations belonging to its relevant subtype by using
fuzzy logic. The genes are ranked based on their statistical scores and highly informative genes mare filtered. Such
genes are fuzzified to identify 2-gene and 3-gene combinations and the intermediate value for each gene is
calculated to select top gene combinations to further classify gene lymphoma subtypes by using fuzzy rules. Finally
the accuracy of top gene combinations is compared with clustering results. The classification is done using the gene
combinations and it is analyzed to predict the accuracy of the results. The work is implemented using java language
Identification of Disease in Leaves using Genetic Algorithmijtsrd
Plant disease is an impairment of normal state of a plant that interrupts or modifies its vital functions. Many leaf diseases are caused by pathogens. Agriculture is the mains try of the Indian economy. Perception of human eye is not so much stronger so as to observe minute variation in the infected part of leaf. In this paper, we are providing software solution to automatically detect and classify plant leaf diseases. In this we are using image processing techniques to classify diseases and quickly diagnosis can be carried out as per disease. This approach will enhance productivity of crops. It includes image processing techniques starting from image acquisition, preprocessing, testing, and training. K.

Microarray technology allows researchers to analyze gene expression levels on a genomic scale. DNA microarrays contain many genes arranged on a slide that can be used to detect differences in gene expression between samples. The microarray workflow involves sample preparation, hybridization of labeled cDNA to the array, image scanning, data normalization and statistical analysis to identify differentially expressed genes between conditions. Multiple testing is a challenge and statistical methods must account for false positives and negatives.
This document summarizes a research paper that developed a plant disease identification system using image processing techniques. The system focuses on identifying chlorosis, a disease affecting the medicinal plant Solanum trilobatum caused by lack of chlorophyll. Images of plant leaves are acquired and preprocessed, then the Otsu's method and Graythresh algorithm are used to automatically calculate a threshold value to convert the image to binary and segment diseased areas. The system provides results on whether disease is present or not in the leaf. It is a low-cost and simple method that can potentially help detect disease early and protect medicinal plants.
Aptamers provide opportunities for structure-based drug design strategies relevant to therapeutic intervention. Recent advances in the chemical modifications of nucleic acids suggest that one of the major barriers to use, stability, can be overcome. The high affinity and specificity of aptamers rival antibodies and make them a promising tool in diagnostic and therapeutic application. We should expect more aptamers to be isolated in the near future against an ever increasing repertoire of targets, using these different SELEX approaches with increased speed and efficiency. Aptamers are poised to successfully compete with monoclonal Abs in therapeutics and drug development within the next few decades.

An approach is developed to detect and correct errors in 16S RNA fragments from metagenomic sequencing data. Two algorithms are proposed - the first finds and corrects errors by studying correspondence between similar sequences, while the second fine-tunes the first algorithm's accuracy for estimating sequence errors, SNPs and detecting species. The approaches are tested on two 16S RNA fragment datasets, and classification results after error correction are compared to evaluate performance. Future work includes improving error detection and correction and validating the approach on other datasets.
This document analyzes sequencing error rates in genome databases by examining donor and acceptor splicing sites in rice genomes from NCBI and PlantGDB. The authors checked over 225,000 sites across 12 rice chromosomes and found 3,385 differences from the classical GT/AG forms, yielding an error rate of 1.5x10-2. This is higher than estimated mouse genome error rates. Various statistics and charts are presented examining error rates by chromosome, site type, and comparing NCBI to PlantGDB data. The analysis provides insight into sequencing errors and their variation across genomes.

Two algorithms are proposed - the first finds and corrects errors by studying correspondence between similar sequences, while the second fine-tunes the first algorithm's accuracy for estimating sequence errors, SNPs and detecting species. The approaches are tested on two 16S RNA fragment datasets, and classification results after error correction are compared to evaluate performance. Future work includes improving error detection and correction and validating the approach on other datasets.
This document analyzes sequencing error rates in genome databases by examining donor and acceptor splicing sites in rice genomes from NCBI and PlantGDB. The authors checked over 225,000 sites across 12 rice chromosomes and found 3,385 differences from the classical GT/AG forms, yielding an error rate of 1.5x10-2. This is higher than estimated mouse genome error rates. Various statistics and charts are presented examining error rates by chromosome, site type, and comparing NCBI to PlantGDB data. The analysis provides insight into sequencing errors and their variation across genomes.
This document describes a study on detecting and correcting errors in 16S rRNA parallel sequencing for metagenomic analysis. It discusses common problems with next-generation sequencing errors and outlines the researchers' approach. Their method aims to deal with heterogeneous sequencing data by considering sequences that are similar or related to be more important in error evaluation. Preliminary results show their basic implementation leads to an increase in the number of operational taxonomic units (OTUs) identified compared to using an existing error correction method. Further work is needed to optimize alignment and evaluation parameters.
This document analyzes sequencing error rates in genome databases by examining donor and acceptor splice sites in rice (Oryza sativa). The key findings are:
1. Compared to a plant genome database, the rice genome in NCBI had an error rate of 1.50×10-2 in splice sites, which is 1-3 orders of magnitude higher than estimated mouse genome error rates.
2. Examining just the NCBI rice genome, error rates were highest for shorter chromosomes and increased with chromosome size. AG splice sites also had relatively higher error rates than GT/GC sites.
3. Estimated error rates remained proportional to sequence length across different analysis methods, suggesting hidden errors

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

2. About Golden
Root
Rhodiola Rosea (Golden root)
is an endangered medicinal
plant with phytoconstituents
and antioxidant potential
known to affect positively
various physiological
functions, including
cognition, working
ability, cardio protection, etc.
The initial material was the
explants isolated from wild
growing plants.
3. Objectives:
The different protocols for development of in vitro
cultures were established previously. The objectives
of the study were:
to analyze the components of the system for its
improvement by bioinformatics methods. For this
purpose results (number and size of
buds, shoots, plants, calli, roots and nutrient media
parameters – concentration of phytohormones
and their price) from the biological experiment
were used for initial data.
Based on analysis - to propose an effective way to
improve the growth and rooting as from
biological side as from economical point of view.
4. Biotechnology and in vitro
cultures
The recent years, in vitro cultures is used as one
of the advanced biotechnological systems for
obtaining a large number of identical plants
free of pathogens for short period of time for
horticulture industry, agriculture and forestry.
This is especially useful for species with high
demand or with slow and difficult cultivation in
natural conditions.
5. Bionformatics Methods:
QSAR method was adapted for the purpose:
Artificial Neural Networks were created to
analyze the trends hidden in data. The process
is divided on two stages because of the
specifics of the data.
Graphical interpretation includes non-standard
type as ―wind of rose‖, also because of the
multidimensional aspects of the data it wasn’t
possible to make 3D scatter plot analysis.

11. Some notes about data
The excluded once are GA3, IBA, Sucrose and Agar. Because
they are phytoregulators we took the decision to include other
calculated columns, which represent weighted value of the
media such as Medium AC ratio and Medium price. This step
was right as it is evident by the Importance &Sensitivity Analysis.
On the Stage 2, because of the less data than that on Stage
1, we were forced to exclude the TDZ phytoregulator used for
prediction on Stage 1, and also Kinetin and Casein included in
the CM.
The output columns are the initial response of the experiments
using IPM. We defined most of them as Boolean because of the
experiment itself – there are cases that show that we could
obtain more than one type of response, i.e. for example we
could find at the same time plants and leaf rosettes. That is why
it is not a good idea to make only one text category column for
them.
12. Some notes about data
The interest subject is constructing the media
classification by IPM.AC ratio. As it is known a high ratio
of cytokinine to auxin favors shoot production, whereas
a high auxin to cytokinine ratio favors root production.
Therefore we established the criteria as follows:
Interval [0; 0,5] - root apical meristem formation
medium, type 1
Interval (0,5; 1) – shoot and root apical meristem formation
and calli formation medium, type 2
Interval [1; 24] - shoot apical meristem formation
medium, type 0
According to this we created a calculated field, named
MC type. It shows whether the Medium Combination is
clear type 0/1/2 or types 10, 11, 12, 20, 21, 22.
The formula is: MC Type = 10 * IPM type + CM type
13. Media Combination types

IPM.type = 0 IPM.type = 1 IPM.type = 2

10 – (roots,

20 – (all,

CM.type = 1

21 – (all, roots)
CM.type = 2
2 – (shoots,
all)
12 – (roots, all)
22 – both media
invoke shoots,
roots, or calli
(all, all)
15. Error rates
The obtained maximum error rate of both stages about learning process is under
0.00001 according to the criteria. We believe that such kind of error does not
have the effect of overtraining because we escaped of using validating
mechanism. After complete analysis we found a small portion query rows about 5
or 7 which could be defined as calli on the stage 1 but they were not. This
produced an error about 0.0028 but such an error is small enough and
acceptable if we want to be not over trained. The main opportunity of not over
trained ANN is that they can predict even for values out of ranges. It is helpful tip
knowing that we have no a big quantity of data, so our data could not be
defined as comprehensive.
16. Importance &
Sensitivity
Analysis
Instead of the standard column graphics
interpretation about Importance and Sensitivity
we use Scatter Plot. It is a good decision
because it shows how the input data are
distributed by Importance and Sensitivity.
We examine high level of sensitivity about
cultivation days as a factor. This means that a
change from 30 to 40 days could be fatal and
will produce necrotic tissues. That is why most of
the query rows include preferably cultivation
days=30.
IPM Value has the highest level of importance,
but the lowest sensitivity, which means that our
hypothesis about weighted value of the media
is true, but to take an effect in the results we
need bigger change. And it is correct, because
of the low price of most of the phytoregulators.
Almost the same is valid for the IPM.AC ratio.
The other group of interest is (Casein,
Glutamine, and Explant). Casein and Glutamine
are common used for inducing growth, no
matter of shoots or roots. That is why they have
good level of importance and high level of
sensitivity according to all the others.
17. Importance &
Sensitivity
Analysis
It is definitely that the predictors in green have
not more than average ratio of importance and
low level of sensitivity which means that there
are more important and more sensitive
parameters than them. So we should not
expect much different results if we make slightly
changes in their values. On the other hand we
can see that the predicted values depend on
much more of the predicted results and
predictors from the first stage, and also they are
high sensitive, which means that if we find
media which produce something else, this will
generally affect the predicted result at the
second stage. Anyway there are some of them
that are in the first quadrant (less important, less
sensitive). These predictors are the columns with
names: Glutamine, Zeatin, IAA, IPM.AC ratio
and IPM.Value. It is easy to view that there is
direct proportional dependence between
importance and sensitivity about Red and Blue
groups, i.e. opposite of the dependences if we
see them at Stage 1. This means that the data
from the first stage are more stable, than the
data from the second - and it is normal,
because at first stage we have more training
examples than the second.
18. Analysis of the IPM, CM and
Media Combinations (MC)
between IPM and CM
21. Continue…
It is evident from the last two figures
that if we want to have success in
process of rooting we do need nutrient
media which favors rooting plants and
leaf rosettes, mostly from apical buds
and rhizome segments, as there are
very good possibilities also to use
explants from the other types. Even if
the ―Calli Like‖ percentage is high, the
number of nutrient media favoring this
might be 5 only.
It is not recommended to try to induce
rooting process for calli as far as almost
100 % of them necrotize. At this point
we defined the objects for analysis of
effectiveness, i.e. now we need to test
all of these Media combinations and
to see their price values. Thus the next
step is to provide analysis about price
ranges of MC that meet the criteria
―first: plant or leaf rosettes growth –
second: successful rooting process‖.
22. Analysis of
effectiveness
The next 3 figures show that
there are much more MCs of
high price level that could
support plant growth followed
by rooting.
There are several options for
choice between:
16 % => 7-8 €/l or 14-15 €/l
13 %=> 10-11 €/l
23. Analysis of effectiveness
One of the aims of this study is to find such media combinations which will provide results at less cost. That is
why we decided to take only the MCs with price range between [0; 6] euro per liter. However, the number
of MCs corresponding to this interval is not such a big, i.e. we have only 22 media combinations that meet
the criteria (from 119), or it is about 18 % of all combinations. The current figure indicates that we did not
found any MC for explant type ―rhizome segment‖ meeting our criteria. This is important in case of limited
resources trying to avoid a great number of explants of rhizome segments.
24. Analysis of
effectiveness
/roots from leaf rosettes/
In the price range [0; 5] euro per liter
there are 5 groups with similar
percentages, as the average is about
16 %. Positively the number of MCs
corresponding to this interval is big
enough i.e. we have 71 media
combinations out of 74 which meet
the criteria comprising about 96 % of
all the combinations.
25. Analysis of effectiveness
There is no limitation by the explant type and it is quite easy to find MCs meeting our criteria,
when it is about to produce rooted leaf rosettes. This is important from biotechnological point of
view because rooted leaf rosette easily could become in vitro cultivated ―plants‖ with roots,
which are ready to transfer into natural conditions.
27. Structure of the table about
measuring the effectiveness
This table was constructed with the purpose of graphical analysis of effectiveness. Two graphics
of ―rose of wind‖ type were made estimating them as the most proper way to illustrate the
results. The price of the MC made a shell formation, because the tables are sorted by it by
ascending.

28. Analysis of
effectiveness
/rose of wind/
In the price range [0; 5] euro per liter
there are 5 groups with similar
percentages, as the average is about
16 %. Positively the number of MCs
corresponding to this interval is big
enough i.e. we have 71 media
combinations out of 74 which meet
the criteria comprising about 96 % of
all the combinations.
29. …rose of wind conclusions
There are 4-5 MCs where media combinations are a variation with MC type =1, with different explants
and prices. These media are from the same price level with minimal changes. This supports our thesis
that MCs in closed price levels should have similar effects and compounds.
There are 13 media combinations of type 0 where the price level for plants is between 4 and 5, but
such media are mostly exceptions.
There are 31 MCs type 1 – i.e. IPM supplies shoot growing, and the CM supplies roots growing. This
mostly occurs in leaf rosette and explant type – rhizome segments. The price levels distribution about
is from 1.62 euro/l to 4.43 euro/l.
There are 2 MCs type 2 – i.e. IPM supplies shoot growing while the CM – shoots, roots and calli
growing. Initial response type leaf rosette price level is about 2.80 euro/l
There are 2 MCs type 10 – it is non standard type of MC, as IPM provides roots growing while the CM –
shoots growing. It occurs when the explants are leaf node and stem segments have initial response
―plant‖.
MC’s name Price MC’s type
