A Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used for learning the classification model. If chimeric nodes can be identified correctly, it means that the de Bruijn graph can be disconnected appropriately by splitting the chimeric nodes.
MetaVelvet-SL outperformed the original MetaVelvet, IDBA-UD, Ray Meta, Omega to reconstruct accurate longer assemblies w/ higher N50 scores
MetaVelvet-SL is that the expected coverage to extract the unique nodes is calculated for each sub-graph.
MetaVelvet-SL, which classifies every node in a de Bruijn graph constructed from mixed short reads of multiple species into the following four types by employing supervised machine learning.
connecting MetaPhlAn & MetaVelvet-SL, which can generate a classification model & assemble automatically to learn a model of chimeric nodes.

meta-methods achieve high accuracy and low error at all settings but at the cost of increased runtime compared to NextGenMap and BWA. The data structure stores the query in a profile format and so occupies a total of (readlength + 16) × 4 × 5 bytes. the 4 accounts for number of bytes in a float, 5 is for bases A, C, G, T, and N, and 16 is for additional space used by the look-ahead strategy and to eliminate if-statements in the code.

These power-law exponents are found for arbitrary combinations of uncorrelated and correlated noisy input current. The significance of this finding goes beyond neuroscience as it demonstrates how 1/f^x power laws with a wide range of values for the power-law exponent may arise from a simple, linear physics equation. the cable equation describing the electrical properties of membranes, transfers white-noise current input into ‘colored’ 1/f^x -noise where may have any half-numbered value within the interval from 1/2 to 3 for the different measurement modalities.

□ Why is Hadoop not used a lot in bio-informatics?
>> https://www.biostars.org/p/115260/
For some large on-demand services, hadoop from massive cloud computing providers is hugely advantageous over the traditional computing model. Hadoop may also do a better job for certain bioinfo tasks (gVCF merging and de novo assembly) A good examples is the ADAM format, a hapdoop friendly replacement of BAM, and its associated tools.
Some pipelines are able to call variants from 1 billion raw reads in 24 hours with multiple CPU cores. although hadoop frequently saves wall-clock time due to its scalability, at times it wastes CPU cycles on its extra layer. In a production setting, the total CPU time across many jobs matters more than the wall-clock time of a single job. Some argue that the compute-close-to-data model of hadoop is better, but for many analyses we only read through data once. The data transferred over network is the same as dispatching data in the hadoop model.
