![]() In addition, there are two trilogies as part of the series. The first three in the book series by the authors Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child, Relic, Reliquary, and Cabinet of Curiosities could be included in the New York City book series due to the fact that they all take place in New York City (around the New York Museum of Natural History) and the characters are also present in each, including one of my favorite earlier characters, William Smithback.

![]() In this paper, we present a dynamic programming alignment algorithm called DP-MEM to be used in the extending-step of the DNA read-mapper tools. However, the scope of this paper is the use in conventional computing platform (CPUs), though they can be extended for use in FPGAs. The Smith-Waterman algorithm is also accelerated on Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). Another example is a greedy approach for aligning DNA sequences introduced in. For example, PatternHunter uses its own custom-made extending-step. There are other alignment algorithms which do not use the conventional dynamic programming technique. Both Gene Myers and Ukkonen algorithms are edit-distance based dynamic programming alignment. For example, GEM and SNAP use modified version of Gene Myers and Ukkonen algorithms respectively for their extending-step. Not all DNA read-mappers use the above extending-step. These implementations exploit data-level parallelisation (SIMD) instructions of Intel processors (SSE) to further speed up the alignment process. Such implementations of the Smith-Waterman algorithm can be found in. Most DNA read-mappers use a derivative of the Smith-Waterman algorithm which uses affine-gap scoring to find a semi-global alignment. Such an extending-step could also implement different scoring systems such as edit-distance scoring or affine-gap scoring. Dynamic programming alignment could produce global, local or semi-global alignment. Typically, in the extending-step, dynamic programming is used. The focus of this paper is the extending-step and not the seeding-step. Another technique is to use spaced-seeding that is used in PatternHunter and PatternHunter II. GEM limits the seed size to have at least n+1 non-overlaping seed to find all alignments with up to n errors. For example, BWA-MEM looks for Maximal Exact Matches (MEMs) and MUMmer looks for Maximal Unique Matches (MUMs). The seeding-step varies from program to program. In order to search for the seed in the reference-genome, some methods such as BWA and Bowtie use a suffix-tree-based structure called FM-Index while others such as BLAST and SNAP use a hash-table index of fixed size k-mers (subsequences of length k). Seed-and-extend method is also used in similarity search tools such as BLAST, BLAT and MUMmer as well as PatternHunter and PatternHunter II. Once a rough alignment is identified (seeding-step), the read is typically aligned to all candidate regions using a dynamic programming algorithm (extending-step) In the seed-and-extend technique, small subsequences of a read (called seeds) are searched in the reference-genome to find candidate regions. This technique is used in DNA read-mappers such as BWA and Bowtie. Seed-and-extend alignment method is a popular technique for aligning reads to the reference-genome. The term alignment covers a broad range of different processes. MEM-Align is a potential candidate to replace other pairwise alignment algorithms used in processes such as DNA read-mapping and Variant-Calling.īiological sequence alignment is about finding similarities and differences between sequences. Fast run-time is achieved by: (a) using a bit-level parallel method to extract MEMs (b) processing MEMs rather than individual symbols and, (c) applying heuristics. Yet MEM-Align is up to 14.5 times faster than the Smith-Waterman algorithm. As a result, for 99.9% of input sequence pair, the computed alignment score is identical to the alignment score computed by Smith-Waterman. MEM-Align tries to mimic alignment produced by Smith-Waterman. In contrast to traditional alignment method (such as Smith-Waterman) where individual symbols are aligned, MEM-Align extracts Maximal Exact Matches (MEMs) using a bit-level parallel method and then looks for a subset of MEMs that forms the alignment using a novel dynamic programming method. In this paper, we present MEM-Align, a fast semi-global alignment algorithm for short DNA sequences that allows for affine-gap scoring and exploit sequence similarity. There are faster alignment algorithms but they suffer from the lack of accuracy. Despite using data level parallelisation, pairwise alignment consumes much time. Smith-Waterman algorithm) is widely used for this purpose. Pairwise alignment of short DNA sequences with affine-gap scoring is a common processing step performed in a range of bioinformatics analyses. ![]() ![]() We will try it again since we are new to the area.

Communicating hazardsĮnsuring everyone in the group knows about what’s going on, is aware of any hazards, and is happy communicating with the others is very important. Before longer descents, consider letting everyone go down at their own speed and regroup at the bottom. On downhills, front riders should try to keep pedalling, otherwise riders benefitting from their draft will have to brake. On tough climbs, if the group strings out, wait for dropped riders at the top. This could cause them to swerve or brake sharply. Your back wheel will drop back about half a bike length. Avoid getting out of the saddle when someone’s right behind you. When approaching hills, it’s important to widen the gap between cyclists to allow for slowing down. Try to keep your head up and look ahead for hazards or signals from the other riders. But don’t overlap your wheel with the person in front, because the wheels may make contact with the slightest gust of wind or bump in the road. Starting out, it’s best to keep at least a wheel length between your front wheel and the back wheel in front. If unsure about pacing, match the speed of more experienced riders. Instead, always try to keep your handlebars level with the person next to you. It can come across as a passive-aggressive signal you wish to up the pace. Half-wheeling – nudging your front tyre ahead of the rider beside you – is poor group-riding etiquette. This is the perfect two-abreast formation, with riders close behind the wheel in front.

It is seldom discussed, Campos said at the ELSI symposium, but the modern concepts of emergence flow to some extent from dialectics of Hegel, Marx and Engels, as well as the holism of South Africa’s controversial leader and thinker, Jan Smuts.Ĭampos said the “emergence” of today is quite different from those iterations. Its meaning and importance have ebbed and flowed, with a major flowering in the United Kingdom in the 1920s. The term “emergence” comes from the Latin verb emergo which means to arise, to rise up. Blumberg NASA/Library of Congress Chair in Astrobiology, described the concept of philosophical and scientific emergence – though not the word - as going back to the Greeks, at least. Luis Campos, a historian of science at the University of New Mexico and the most recent Baruch S. Heady stuff, which is why the study and use of the concept of emergence has become increasingly widespread as a tool, or perhaps a pathway, to address complex problems.īefore going on, a little history is in order. This doesn’t mean that something magical or divine is going on – rather, that either humans have not figured out what happens or that what happens is not comprehensible given our understanding of the laws of nature and physics. Think of how the firing of the billions of neurons in your brain results in consciousness.Īll create complexity out of component parts, produce something irreducible from those original parts, and all have been resistant to a full explanation using the usual reductionist tools of the scientific world. Think of the processes by which bits of cosmic dust clump and clump and clump millions of times over and in time become a planetesimal or perhaps a planet. Think of the folding of proteins that makes genetic information transfer possible. Think of the combination of hydrogen and oxygen gases which make liquid water. Think of a collection of ants or bees and how they join leaderless by the many thousands to make something – a beehive, an ant colony – that is entirely different from the individual creatures. ![]() The result is generally novel, often surprising, and sometimes most puzzling – especially since emergent phenomena involve self-organization by the more complex whole. So what is “emergence?” Most simply, it describes the ubiquitous and hugely varied mechanisms by which simple components in nature (or in the virtual or philosophical world) achieve more complexity, and in the process become greater than the sum of all those original parts. ![]() And in the 21st century, it is making a significant comeback as a way to think about many phenomena and processes in the world. If there was a simple meaning of the often-used scientific term “emergence,” then 100-plus scientists wouldn’t have spent four days presenting, debating and not infrequently disagreeing about what it was.īut as last month’s organizers of the Earth-Life Science Institute’s “Comparative Emergence” symposium in Tokyo frequently reminded the participants, those debates and disputes are perfectly fine and to be expected given the very long history and fungibility of the concept.Īt the same time, ELSI leaders also clearly thought that the term can have resonance and importance in many domains of science, and that’s why they wanted practitioners to be exposed more deeply to its meanings and powers.Įmergence is a concept commonly used in origins of life research, in complexity and artificial life science less commonly in chemistry, biology, social and planetary sciences and - originally – in philosophy. ![]() Live radar: abc7.la/LiveMEGADOPPLER Watches/Warnings: abc7.la/WxWarnings Download the free Accuweather app for iPhone and Android devices.
