A branching chart that indicates the evolutionary lineage or genetic relatedness of organisms

A method used to examine the behaviour of a model by measuring the variation in its outputs resulting from changes to its inputs.

Alignment of DNA fragments to a closely related reference genome to create a representative of the original DNA sample

A decision tree is a decision support tool that uses a tree-like model of decisions and their possible consequences, including chance event outcomes, resource costs, and...

An algorithmic approach to find the best matching of consecutive letters in one sequence (text symbols that represent the polymer subunits of DNA or protein sequences) with...

The raw reads produced from basecalling, usually saved in FASTQ format for NGS data.

The Knowledge Graph is a knowledge base, i.e. a technology used to store complex structured and unstructured information used by a computer system. Knowledge graph is used by...

In the context of epidemiology: Making data from different sources comparable. The processes involved in producing inferentially equivalent data.

Data (variable) with a potentially infinite number of possible values along a continuum (e.g., height, weight, enzyme output)

Semantics is the linguistic and philosophical study of meaning, in language, programming languages, formal logics, and semiotics. It is concerned with the relationship between...

Application of quantitative methods to decision-making.

The process of assuring interoperability of data is focused on making sure that data can be processed by different systems. Differently from data standardisation, there is no...

NGS is frequently used to identify mutations in DNA samples from individual patients or experimental organisms. Sequencing can be done at the whole-genome scale; RNA-seq, which...

When two or more DNA sequences are aligned, the overlapping portions can be combined to create a single consensus sequence. In positions where all overlapping sequences have the...

several dependant variables

sensitivity is the probability that a test correctly classifies positive individuals who have preclinical disease. Sensivity is expressed as a percentage: The number of...

The extent to which a prevalence estimate produced by the surveillance system deviates from the value of the true prevalence . Bias is reduced as representativeness is increased.

Structural interoperability is an intermediate level that defines the structure or format of data exchange (i.e., the message format standards) where there is uniform movement...

The processing of personal data in such a way that the data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, as long as such...
