CLARK, accurate and efficient classification of DNA sequences

The identification of DNA motifs remains an active challenge for the researchers in the bioinformatics domain. A considerable effort in this area was concentrated on understanding the evolution of the genome by identifying the DNA binding sites for ...

An important problem in metagenomic analysis is to determine and quantify species (or genomes) in a metagenomic sample. The identification of phylogenetically related groups of sequence reads in a metagenomic dataset is often referred to as binning. ...

Metagenomics is a rapidly expanding field that uses next-generation sequencing technology to analyze the genetic makeup of environmental samples. However, accurately identifying the organisms in a metagenomic sample can be complex, and ...
