Finite-state machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Finite-state machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "A finite-state machine (FSM) or finite-state automaton (plural: automata), or simply a state machine, is a mathematical model of computation used to design both computer programs and sequential logic circuits. It is conceived as an abstract machine that can be in one of a finite number of states. The machine is in only one state at a time; the state it is in at any given time is called the current state. It can change from one state to another when initiated by a triggering event or condition; this is called a transition. A particular FSM is defined by a list of its states, and the triggering condition for each transition."

Tree Reconciliation | iPlant Collaborative Web Portal

Tree Reconciliation | iPlant Collaborative Web Portal: "The primary goal of the Tree Reconciliation Working Group is to develop an infrastructure to perform large species-gene tree reconciliations involving thousands of taxa and thousands of gene families. Such an infrastructure, able to process datasets of this magnitude, will prove indispensable given the pace at which the genomes of the different species are being sequenced. The iPlant Tree Reconciliation platform is composed of three elements: an analytical pipeline, a database and a visualizer."

Notung 2.6 : Reconciliation

Notung 2.6 : Reconciliation: "Given a gene tree and a species tree (e.g., Fig. 1), Notung-2.6 will determine:
The duplications, conditional duplications, and losses that occurred
Upper and lower bounds on the time of duplication and conditional duplication
The cost (D/L Score) of the tree"

Bayesian gene/species tree reconciliation and... [Bioinformatics. 2003] - PubMed - NCBI

Bayesian gene/species tree reconciliation and... [Bioinformatics. 2003] - PubMed - NCBI: "MOTIVATION: Comparative genomics in general and orthology analysis in particular are becoming increasingly important parts of gene function prediction. Previously, orthology analysis and reconciliation has been performed only with respect to the parsimony model. This discards many plausible solutions and sometimes precludes finding the correct one. In many other areas in bioinformatics probabilistic models have proven to be both more realistic and powerful than parsimony models"

repository - How can I get apt to use a mirror close to me, or choose a faster mirror? - Ask Ubuntu: "always gone with the 'select best server' GUI tool: from Ubuntu Software Center, go to Edit -> Software Sources in the menu. (You can also do this from the Preferences for Synaptic or the Update Manager.)"
