OWL API (RRID:SCR_005734) | OWL API | software resource, source code | The OWL API is a Java API and reference implementation for creating, manipulating and serializing OWL Ontologies. The latest version of the API is focused towards OWL 2. The OWLAPI underpins ontology browsing and editing tools and platforms such as SWOOP and Protege4. Note that this API, or any other OWL-based API, can be used without an integrated OWL parser if you download a pre-converted OWL file generated from OBO. See OBO Ontologies List for all OBO ontologies converted to OWL (we do not list the full complement of OWL-based APIs here, only those of direct relevance to GO). The OWL API includes the following components: * An API for OWL 2 and an efficient in-memory reference implementation * RDF/XML parser and writer * OWL/XML parser and writer * OWL Functional Syntax parser and writer * Turtle parser and writer * KRSS parser * OBO Flat file format parser * Reasoner interfaces for working with reasoners such as FaCT++, HermiT, Pellet and Racer Platform: Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible | ontology, owl, api, java, software library, parser, writer |

ALCHEMY Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
ALCHEMY (RRID:SCR_005761) | ALCHEMY | software resource, source code | ALCHEMY is a genotype calling algorithm for Affymetrix and Illumina products which is not based on clustering methods. Features include explicit handling of reduced heterozygosity due to inbreeding and accurate results with small sample sizes. ALCHEMY is a method for automated calling of diploid genotypes from raw intensity data produced by various high-throughput multiplexed SNP genotyping methods. It has been developed for and tested on Affymetrix GeneChip Arrays, Illumina GoldenGate, and Illumina Infinium based assays. Primary motivations for ALCHEMY''s development was the lack of available genotype calling methods which can perform well in the absence of heterozygous samples (due to panels of inbred lines being genotyped) or provide accurate calls with small sample batches. ALCHEMY differs from other genotype calling methods in that genotype inference is based on a parametric Bayesian model of the raw intensity data rather than a generalized clustering approach and the model incorporates population genetic principles such as Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium adjusted for inbreeding levels. ALCHEMY can simultaneously estimate individual sample inbreeding coefficients from the data and use them to improve statistical inference of diploid genotypes at individual SNPs. The main documentation for ALCHEMY is maintained on the sourceforge-hosted MediaWiki system. Features * Population genetic model based SNP genotype calling * Simultaneous estimation of per-sample inbreeding coefficients, allele frequencies, and genotypes * Bayesian model provides posterior probabilities of genotype correctness as quality measures * Growing number of scripts and supporting programs for validation of genotypes against control data and output reformating needs * Multithreaded program for parallel execution on multi-CPU/core systems * Non-clustering based methods can handle small sample sets for empirical optimization of sample preparation techniques and accurate calling of SNPs missing genotype classes ALCHEMY is written in C and developed on the GNU/Linux platform. It should compile on any current GNU/Linux distribution with the development packages for the GNU Scientific Library (gsl) and other development packages for standard system libraries. It may also compile and run on Mac OS X if gsl is installed. | diploid, genotype, snp, bio.tools |

OrChem Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
OrChem (RRID:SCR_008865) | OrChem | software resource, source code | OrChem is an extension for the Oracle 11G database that adds registration and indexing of chemical structures to support fast substructure and similarity searching. The cheminformatics functionality is provided by the Chemistry Development Kit. OrChem provides similarity searching with response times in the order of seconds for databases with millions of compounds, depending on a given similarity cut-off. For substructure searching, it can make use of multiple processor cores on today''s powerful database servers to provide fast response times in equally large data sets. OrChem is an Oracle chemistry plug-in using the Chemistry Development Kit (CDK). The CDK is an open source Java library for Chemoinformatics and Bioinformatics. OrChem is maintained by the chemoinformatics and metabolism team of the European Bioinformatics Institute. Oracle Data cartridges extend the capabilities of the Oracle server. For chemistry various commercial cartridges exist that facilitate searching and analyzing chemical data. OrChem also provides functionality like this, but is not a cartridge. It doesn''t need Oracle''s extensibility architecture because its Java components run as Java stored procedures inside the Oracle standard JVM (Aurora). OrChem is suitable for Oracle 11G and onwards. Starting with Oracle 11g release 1 (11.1) there is a just-in-time(JIT) compiler for Oracle JVM environment. A JIT compiler for Oracle JVM enables much faster execution because it manages the invalidation, recompilation, and storage of code without an external mechanism. This new Oracle feature makes Java classes perform better than before. | oracle, chemistry, cdk, similarity search, chemical structure, cheminformatics, bioinformatics, plugin |

Niftilib (RRID:SCR_003355) | Niftilib | software toolkit, software resource, source code, software library | Niftilib is a set of i/o libraries for reading and writing files in the nifti-1 data format. nifti-1 is a binary file format for storing medical image data, e.g. magnetic resonance image (MRI) and functional MRI (fMRI) brain images. Niftilib currently has C, Java, MATLAB, and Python libraries; we plan to add some MATLAB/mex interfaces to the C library in the not too distant future. Niftilib has been developed by members of the NIFTI DFWG and volunteers in the neuroimaging community and serves as a reference implementation of the nifti-1 file format. In addition to being a reference implementation, we hope it is also a useful i/o library. Niftilib code is released into the public domain, developers are encouraged to incorporate niftilib code into their applications, and, to contribute changes and enhancements to niftilib. Please contact us if you would like to contribute additonal functionality to the i/o library. | image data, mri, fmri, brain image, image, brain, neuroimaging |
