چکیده

Infogenomics is a project aimed at developing informational analyses of genomes adding a new perspective to the more common biological and biochemical investigation on genomes. Here, we present InfoGenomics Tools, shortly IG Tools, a computational framework, which consists of a collection of interactive tools, designed to support typical analyses required in the context of Infogenomics. Modularity, interactiveness, data visualization, and low-cost computational requirements are the main goal of IG Tools, where suffix arrays are a key point in the data structures representing genomes, and their algorithmic power allows us to speed-up genomic computations that would be prohibitive by using naive methods.

Using the Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm to Generate the Minimum Test Suite in Covering Array with Uniform Strength

Up to now, several useful algorithms have been proposed to generate covering array, which is one of the branches of combinatorial testing. The main challenge in generating such arrays is generation of the arrays with a minimum number of test cases (for efficiency) at a proper time (for performance), for large systems. Covering array generation strategies are often divided into two general categ...

Informational laws of genome structures

In recent years, the analysis of genomes by means of strings of length k occurring in the genomes, called k-mers, has provided important insights into the basic mechanisms and design principles of genome structures. In the present study, we focus on the proper choice of the value of k for applying information theoretic concepts that express intrinsic aspects of genomes. The value k = lg2(n), wh...
