Information about geographic locations that is stored in a format that can be used with a geographic information system (GIS).

Software that runs under any operating system. It may also refer to development tools that support any operating system.

The sequencing of the genome of a new, previously unsequenced organism or DNA segment. This term is also used whenever a genome (or sequence data set) is assembled by methods of...

Whether appropriate methods are used for the analysis and interpretation of data at an appropriate frequency.

building a dynamic system (model) that fits time series data

Bioinformatic analyses are often performed in a stepwise manner, with the output of 1 analysis being used as the input for the next. These multistep, multisoftware analyses are...

Knowledge model is a result of a knowledge modeling. Knowledge modeling is a process of creating a computer interpretable model of knowledge or standard specifications about a...

Data interoperability addresses the ability of systems and services that create, exchange and consume data to have clear, shared expectations for the contents, context and...

Schema markup is the foremost type of shared markup vocabulary that Google is using to deliver results.

A computational process of finding overlaps of identical (or nearly identical) strings of letters among a set of sequence fragments and iteratively joining them together to form...

In general, the core steps in preparing RNA or DNA for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) analysis are: (i) fragmenting and/or sizing the target sequences to a desired length,...

Data that are expressed in a summary form (e.g. summary statistics)

Single site in any DNA sequence for which the identity of the nucleotide differs among individuals.

Semantic interoperability is the ability of computer systems to exchange data with unambiguous, shared meaning. Semantic interoperability is a requirement to enable machine...

A method of constructing a tree in which at each step the two most closely related clusters that are not yet clustered will be clustered (joined in a "branch"). Once all...

Given an undirected and connected graph G=(V,E), a spanning tree of the graph G is a tree that spans G (that is, it includes every vertex of G) and is a subgraph of G (every...

Data reported to European agencies or made publicly available in yearly reports by national agencies related to public health, animal helath and food surveillance. This data is...

A small piece of DNA, often produced by a physical or chemical shearing of larger DNA molecules. NGS machines determine the sequence of many DNA fragments simultaneously.

A description of the measures used to assess disease occurrence (e.g. incidence, prevalence, case numbers) and how the data are analysed include; the spatial and temporal...
