A Symmetric Length-Aware Enrichment Test
Young et al. [14] showed that due to gene length bias the popular Fisher Exact Test should not be used to study the association between a group of differentially expressed (DE) ge...

CRISPR Detection from Short Reads Using Partial Overlap Graphs
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) are structured regions in bacterial and archaeal genomes, which are part of an adaptive immune system against pha...

Learning Microbial Interaction Networks from Metagenomic Count Data
Many microbes associate with higher eukaryotes and impact their vitality. In order to engineer microbiomes for host benefit, we must understand the rules of community assembly and...

Locating a Tree in a Phylogenetic Network in Quadratic Time
A fundamental problem in the study of phylogenetic networks is how to determine whether a phylogenetic network displays a phylogenetic tree or not. We develop a quadratic-time alg...

HapTree-X: An Integrative Bayesian Framework for Haplotype Reconstruction from Transcriptome and Genome Sequencing Data
Identifying phase information is biomedically important due to the association of complex haplotype effects, such as compound heterozygosity, with disease. As recent next-generat...

A Model for Biased Fractionation after Whole Genome Duplication
Background: Paralog reduction, the loss of duplicate genes after whole genome duplication (WGD) is a pervasive process. Whether this loss proceeds gene by gene or through deletion...

Recovering the Tree-Like Trend of Evolution Despite Extensive Lateral Genetic Transfer: A Probabilistic Analysis
Abstract. Lateral gene transfer (LGT) is a common mechanism of nonvertical evolution where genetic material is transferred between two more or less distantly related organisms. It ...

Simultaneous Reconstruction of Multiple Signaling Pathways via the Prize-Collecting Steiner Forest Problem
Signaling networks are essential for cells to control processes such as growth and response to stimuli. Although many “omic” data sources are available to probe signaling pathw...
