Nonpareil curves
The estimation of the Redundancy is at the core of Nonpareil, but it’s when those values are transformed
into average coverage that they become comporable across samples, and become useful for project design and sample
evaluation.
To build Nonpareil curves, you need two things. First, the Nonpareil.R file (you can find it in the utils folder
of Nonpareil). Second, the .npo file (or -o value, if you used this option) generated in the estimation of
Redundancy.
For the impatient
You can simply open R and execute:
source('utils/Nonpareil.R');
Nonpareil.curve('output.npo');
Changing utils/Nonpareil.R and output.npo to point to the actual location of the files.
Nonpareil.curve()
This function can generate a Nonpareil curve from a .npo file. The parameters that this function accepts are:
- file
- Path to the .npo file, containing the read redundancy.
- overlap=NULL
- Value of the -L parameter (in Nonpareil, the default is 50). If not set, it tries to find the value in the
.npo file (supported in Nonpareil ≥2.0), or fails with an error message.
- factor=1
- Factor by which the number of reads must be multiplied (x-axis). For example, a factor of 1e-3 will produce curves
in Kbp (instead of bp). This option should be used when if an “integer overload” is produced, at risk of reducing
the accuracy of the curves.
- plotDispersion=NA
- Indicates if and how the dispersion of replicates is to be represented. If it’s NA no dispersion is plotted.
Otherwise, it can take the values 'sd': 1 standard deviation around the mean; 'ci95': 95% confidence
interval; 'ci90': 90% confidence interval; 'ci50': 50% confidence interval; 'iq': Inter-quartile
range.
- xmin=1e3, xmax=10e12
- Range to plot in the x-axis (Sequencing effort).
- ymax=1, ymin=1e-6
- Range to plot in the y-axis (Average coverage).
- xlab=NULL,ylab=NULL
- Labels of the axes. If NULL, the default values are set Sequencing effort (units) for the x-axis, and
Estimated average coverage for the y-axis.
- r=NA,g=NA,b=NA,
- Values for the red, green, and blue components of the rgb representation of the curve’s color. If NA, random
values are set. If the numbers are in the range [0,1], they are assumed to be fractions of 1 (as interpreted by
rgb). Otherwise, they are assumed to be fractions of 256 (as represented in most color palettes).
- new=TRUE
- Indicates if a new canvas must be created. If FALSE, it requires that Nonpareil.curve() was previously called
(so a proper canvas exists already). This is useful to create a single plot with several samples (see also
Nonpareil.legend()).
- plot=TRUE
- Indicates if the curve is to be plotted. If FALSE, no plots are generated, but the estimations are.
- libname=NA
- Name of the library (to be used in later calls of Nonpareil.legend()). If NA the base of the filename
(withouth .npo) is used.
- modelOnly=FALSE
- If TRUE, prints only the fitted model. It also causes variables related to dispersion and curve to be
ignored, and it produces an empty circle denoting the actual size of the dataset and the estimated average
coverage.
- plotModel=TRUE
- Indicates whether the fitted model is to be included in the plot. If FALSE, it still fits the model to
find the estimate of sequencing effort, but the curve of the model is not included in the plot.
- curve.lwd=2
- Line width of the curve (the observed curve, not the fitted model).
- curve.alpha=0.4
- Transparency of the curve.
- model.lwd=1
- Line width of the fitted model line.
- model.alpha=1
- Transparency of the fitted model line.
- log=’x’
- Use logarithmic scale in the X or Y-axis (or both).
- data.consistency=TRUE
- Check consistency of the input data before plotting and fitting the model.
- useValue=’mean’
- Value of the distribution of replicates to be used as the curve. The fitted model and the estimated coverage
is only meaningful when useValue='mean', but all of the following values are supported to allow visual
inspection of the distribution of replicates: The mean ('mean') or the median ('median') of the
distribution ('median'); the upper ('ub') or the lower ('lb') bound of the 95% confidence interval
(assuming normality); or the first ('q1') or the third ('q3') quartile of the ditribution.
- star=95
- Value of average coverage (in percentage) to be used as almost complete covereage. Usually this value should
be set to 95 or 99, but other estimations can be useful. For example, setting this value to 60 predicts the
minimum sequencing effort at which an assembly with N50 larger than 200bp can be achieved with (100bp-long)
Illumina reads.
- read.length=101
- Length of the reads. This value can be found in the .npl file, but other estimation (e.g., the average
length after trimming) can be used.
Value: A list with the following keys:
- kappa
- Redundancy of the dataset, as calculated by Nonpareil.
- C
- Estimated abundance-weighted average coverage.
- LRstar
- Estimated sequecing effort (in bp) required to reach star average coverage (95%, by default).
- LR
- Size of the datasets (in bp).
- modelR
- Pearson’s correlation coeficient between the calculated values and the fitted model.
Nonpareil.legend()
This function creates a legend for the Nonpareil curve(s) in the (active) plot. It’s compatible with single
or multiple calls of Nonpareil.curve() (using new=F in all but the first call) and with
Nonpareil.curve.batch(). The parameters that this function accepts are:
- x=NULL
- Position in the X-axis. If NULL, it’s located at 75% of the maximum value of X. It can also be set to
any character string supported by xy.coords.
- y=.3
- Position in the Y-axis.
- ...
- Any other parameter accepted by legend() is supported, except for fill and legend.
Nonpareil.curve.batch()
This function can generate a plot with several Nonpareil curves from .npo files. The parameters that this
function accepts are:
- files
- Vector of characters with the paths to the .npo files.
- overlap=NULL
- Value of the -L parameter (in Nonpareil, the default is 50). It can be a number (if all the curves were
generated with the same value) or a vector (in the same order of files). See the overlap value of
Nonpareil.curve().
- r=NA,g=NA,b=NA
- Values of the corresponding r, g, and b in Nonpareil.curve(). It can be NA (to set random
colors) or vectors of numbers in the same order of files.
- libnames=NA
- Vector of names of the libraries (corresponding to libname in Nonpareil.curve()). It must be characters,
not factors.
- read.lengths=NA
- A vector of numbers indicating the length of the reads (corresponding to read.length in Nonpareil.curve()).
If NA, the default is used.
- ...
- Any other parameter accepted by Nonpareil.curve() is supported.
Value: A dataframe containing the values generated by Nonpareil.curve().
Example: I find it very convenient to first prepare a table with the samples, something like:
# samples.txt
File Name R G B
# HMP
SRS063417.1.L50.npo Posterior fornix 256 200 200
SRS063287.1.L50.npo Buccal mucosa 256 120 120
SRS062540.1.L50.npo Tongue dorsum 256 3 3
SRS016335.1.L50.npo Stool 200 135 76
SRS015574.1.L50.npo Supragingival plaque 230 100 120
SRS019087.1.L50.npo Anterior nares 220 220 130
Note that this table is tab-delimited, because I find it easier to read, but you can use anything you like (and is
supported by R). Next, you can simply type something like this in the R console:
source('utils/Nonpareil.R');
samples <- read.table('samples.txt', sep='\t', h=T);
attach(samples);
np <- Nonpareil.curve.batch(File, 50, r=R, g=G, b=B, libnames=Name, modelOnly=TRUE);
Nonpareil.legend('bottomright');
detach(samples);

Active ingredients
Iodine povacrylex (0.7% available iodine)
Isopropyl alcohol, 74% w/w
Purpose
Antiseptic
Antiseptic
Uses
patient preoperative skin preparation:
- for preparation of the skin prior to surgery
- helps reduce bacteria that potentially can cause skin infection
Warnings
For external use only. Flammable, keep away from fire or flame.
To reduce the risk of fire, PREP CAREFULLY:
- solution contains alcohol and gives off flammable vapors
- do not drape or use ignition source (e.g., cautery, laser) until solution is completely dry (minimum of 3 minutes on hairless skin; up to 1 hour in hair).
- avoid getting solution into hairy areas. Wet hair is flammable. Hair may take up to 1 hour to dry.
- do not allow solution to pool
- remove solution-stained material from prep area
Do not use
- on patients with known allergies to iodine or any other ingredients in this product
- on open wounds, on mucous membranes, or as a general skin cleanser
- in infants less than 2 months old due to the risk of excessive skin irritation and transient hypothyroidism
When using this product
- keep out of eyes, ears, and mouth. May cause serious injury if permitted to enter and remain. If contact occurs, flush with cold water right away and contact a doctor.
- to avoid skin injury, care should be taken when removing drapes, tapes, etc…applied over film
- use with caution in women who are breast-feeding due to the potential for transient hypothyroidism in the nursing newborn
Stop use and ask a doctor if irritation, sensitization or allergic reaction occurs. These may be signs of a serious condition. On rare occasions, use of this product has been associated with skin blistering.
Keep out of reach of children. If swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center right away.
Directions (follow all directions for use)
- at the end of the prep, discard any portion of the solution which is not required to cover the prep area. It is not necessary to use the entire amount available.
Getting Patient Ready for Solution:
- use in well-ventilated area
- do not microwave or heat the solution applicator
- apply to clean, completely dry, residue-free, intact skin
- when hair removal is necessary, use a surgical clipper on the morning of the surgery. If a wet shave is used, thoroughly remove all soap residues.
Activating the Applicator:
- grasp product by wrapping hand and fingers around the labeled portion of the applicator. Place thumb on the lever.
- with sponge face parallel to the floor, snap lever. Allow all fluid to flow into sponge.
When Applying Solution:
-
DO NOT SCRUB. Paint a single, uniform application and do not reprep area.
-
do not allow solution to pool. Use sponge applicator to absorb excess solution and continue to apply a uniform coating. If solution accidentally gets outside of prep area, remove excess with gauze.
- tuck prep towels as needed under both sides of the neck to absorb excess solution. Remove towels before draping.
- avoid getting solution into hairy areas. Wet hair is flammable. Hair may take up to 1 hour to dry.
- when prepping skin folds, toes, or fingers, use a sterile-gloved hand to hold skin apart until completely dry. Otherwise, skin may adhere to itself.
After Applying Solution:
- to reduce the risk of fire, wait until solution is completely dry (minimum of 3 minutes on hairless skin; up to 1 hour in hair). Solution will turn from a shiny to a dull appearance on skin alerting the user that the solution is completely dry and no longer flammable.
While Waiting for Solution to Completely Dry:
- do not drape or use ignition source (e.g., cautery, laser)
- check for pooled solution. Use sterile gauze to soak up pooled solution. Do not blot because it may remove solution from skin.
- remove solution-stained materials. Replace if necessary.
After Solution is Completely Dry:
- to reduce the risk of fire, begin draping and/or using cautery only after solution is completely dry and all solution-stained materials are removed
- if incise drapes are used, apply directly to dry prep. On completion of surgical procedure, removal of incise drape will remove film.
- apply dressing following standard practices
Other information
- store between 20-25ºC (68-77ºF)
- avoid excessive heat above 40ºC (104ºF)
- solution is not water soluble and may stain. Therefore, avoid contact with reusable items (basins, instruments).

A Recursion is when the method calls itself to solve a problem. The recursive solution is constructed with a base case and a recursive case. In every recursive solution, we need to have these two components. If we miss base case in our recursive solution, the method will run in never ending loop and will throw StackOverFlowError
.
Base Case
A non-recursive method that terminates the recursive path. This should run first in a method to check to terminate the recursive path.
Recursive Case
A recursive method that calls itself one or multiple times to solve a problem.
The best example of recursion is to compute the factorial of a number. In mathematics, a factorial is what you get when you multiply a number by all of the integers below it. The factorial of 6 is equal to 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 720. We can write a recursive function for factorial as follows in java:
public static int factorial(int n) { if (n <= 1) { return 1; } else { return n * factorial(n - 1); } }
If we trace the function call of above recursive function, we can see as follows:
factorial(6) factorial(5) factorial(4) factorial(3) factorial(2) factorial(1) return 1 return 2*1 = 2 return 3*2 = 6 return 4*6 = 24 return 5*24 = 120 return 6*120 = 720
In this example, you see that 1 is the base case, and any integer value greater than 1 triggers the recursive case.
One challenge in implementing a recursive solution is always to make sure that the recursive process arrives at a base case. For example, if the base is never reached, the solution will continue infinitely and the program will hang. In java, this will result in a StackOverFlowError
anytime the application recurses too deeply.
Following famous algorithms are using recursive strategy to solve a problem

Recession fears recede in Germany but global economy still fragile
Analysts say recession may be merely postponed
by Charles Riley, CNN BusinessBERLIN - Europe's largest economy narrowly avoided a recession in the third quarter, expanding by 0.1% over the previous three-month period.
Still, the outlook for Germany remains poor.
Here's what Andrew Kenningham, chief Europe economist at Capital Economics, gleaned from the data:
"The trivial increase in GDP in Q3 means that Germany has narrowly averted a technical recession. But second-quarter GDP fell more than previously thought, and we think the economy will probably contract slightly next year -- so a recession may have been postponed rather than avoided altogether," he said.


Evan Holyfield wins professional boxing debut in just 16 seconds in front of proud dad
Evander Holyfield watched on proudly at ringside as Evan Holyfield impressed on his pro debut
by Rich Jones, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/rich-jones/Evan Holyfield got his professional career off to a winning start in just 16 seconds in front of his proud father in Las Vegas.
Five-time world heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield was watching on from ringside as his middle son made a major statement on the undercard of Canelo Alvarez vs Sergey Kovalev.
He has been keen to take a back seat in the career of his son, but he could not help an approving nod as he watched a display which did the family name proud.
The 21-year-old came storming out of the blocks, launching a barrage of punches against opponent Nick Winstead and flooring him after just 16 seconds.
He first stunned Winstead with a quick left hook, before connecting again with an overhand right which sent his opponent onto his heels then putting him down with another left hand.
The fight was instantly waved off amongst protests from Winstead, with Holyfield celebrating a dream start to what he hopes will be a career to match his iconic father.
Super-welterweight Holyfield is being coached by former fighter Maurice Watkins, who has tipped the youngster to emulate his legendary father.
“He can box and he can punch,” Termite told Standard Sport . “He’s got the best of both worlds. He is incredibly fast, one of the fastest boxers I’ve seen and worked with. And he can punch.
After The Bell: Watch Mirror Fighting's new boxing show
Mirror Fighting has launched a new weekly boxing show in association with Betfair in which we analyse the latest big fights, play matchmaker, and preview forthcoming bouts.
Former super-middleweight world champion George Groves provides expert analysis.
To watch the latest show in full, click here.
 He’s got both.
"He also has an incredible ability not to get hit. So right off the bat, he’s every boxing trainer’s dream.
“I think he has every ability to do what his dad did and even more."
Evan is the latest Holyfield to make an impact as a professional sportsman.
His brother, Elijah Holyfield, is a running back for the Carolina Panthers in the NFL, currently on their practice squad in his first year since leaving Georgia University to embark upon his professional career.


Review: Ronin By Ryan Davis<EMAIL_ADDRESS>If you have ever seen Fox TV's special car chase programs, you'll have a good idea about the content of Ronin, the new action "thriller" from director John Frankenheimer.
The film involves a mysterious briefcase, that several groups of terrorist want to get their hands on. An Irish women, Dierdre (played by The Truman Show's Natascha McElhone), hires a group of mercenaries to assist her in getting the briefcase. Among the people she hires are Sam (Robert De Niro), Vincent (Jean Reno), and Gregor (Stellan Skarsgård from Good Will Hunting). Dierdre's groups assignment is too seize the briefcase while the current owners are transporting it. They accomplish this task, but a traitor is in the bunch and the briefcase is soon on the run again.
The briefcase stays on the run, as the movie leads the viewer through several plot twists that are badly executed. The writer seemed to be attempting to make a smart action movie, but failed to understand that just because there are surprises, it doesn't add too the credibility of a senseless script. The plot twists get no reaction because they come at a time where no one cares what is going on, after the apparent climax of the film.
But to add to the excitement, as I mentioned earlier, there are endless car chase scenes. They are unrealistic and fail to add anything to the story. Don't get me wrong, I love car chases, but they were overdone and too long here.
We never do find out what's in the briefcase, but I doubt anyone cares by the time they finish sitting through this two hour long attempted thriller.

Tricky Words: New Google Search Feature Teaches Pronunciation
by David BeasleyGoogle today unveiled an experimental search feature that can tutor you on how to pronounce tricky words.Previously, when you searched for something on Google, you could play an audio and hear how the word is pronounced. But that was no guarantee it would sound the same way when it left your lips. The new feature allows you not just to hear the word, but to practice saying it into the microphone on your phone. It provides feedback on how to improve the pronunciation. You can practice for as long as it takes to get it right.
For now, the feature is in American English only but Spanish will be added soon.
The new feature also includes images to help users better understand the meaning of words.
“This can be useful with words that have multiple meanings like ‘seal’, or words like ‘avocado’ that aren’t commonly used in all languages or regions,” Google said.
Google said it is starting with images that illustrate nouns, and will expand from there.


prtClassRvm Relevance vector machine classifier
CLASSIFIER = prtClassRvm returns a relevance vector machine classifier
CLASSIFIER = prtClassRvm(PROPERTY1, VALUE1, ...) constructs a
prtClassRvm object CLASSIFIER with properties as specified by
PROPERTY/VALUE pairs.
A prtClassRvm object inherits all properties from the abstract class
prtClass. In addition is has the following properties:
kernels - A cell array of prtKernel objects specifying
the kernels to use
verbosePlot - Flag indicating whether or not to plot during
training
verboseText - Flag indicating whether or not to output
verbose updates during training
learningMaxIterations - The maximum number of iterations
A prtClassRvm also has the following read-only properties:
learningConverged - Flag indicating if the training converged
beta - The regression weights, estimated during training
sparseBeta - The sparse regression weights, estimated during
training
sparseKernels - The sparse regression kernels, estimated during
training
For information on relevance vector machines, please
refer to the following URL:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relevance_vector_machine
By default, prtClassRvm uses the Laplacian approximation as found
in the paper:
Michael E. Tipping. 2001. Sparse bayesian learning and the
relevance vector machine. J. Mach. Learn. Res. 1 (September 2001),
The code is based on the algorithm in:
Herbrich, Learning Kernel Classifiers, The MIT Press, 2002
http://www.learning-kernel-classifiers.org/
A prtClassRvm object inherits the TRAIN, RUN, CROSSVALIDATE and
KFOLDS methods from prtAction. It also inherits the PLOT method
from prtClass.
Example:
TestDataSet = prtDataGenUnimodal; % Create some test and
TrainingDataSet = prtDataGenUnimodal; % training data
classifier = prtClassRvm; % Create a classifier
classifier = classifier.train(TrainingDataSet); % Train
classified = run(classifier, TestDataSet); % Test
% Plot the results
subplot(2,1,1);
classifier.plot;
subplot(2,1,2);
[pf,pd] = prtScoreRoc(classified,TestDataSet);
h = plot(pf,pd,'linewidth',3);
title('ROC'); xlabel('Pf'); ylabel('Pd');
% Example 2, using a different kernel
TestDataSet = prtDataGenUnimodal; % Create some test and
TrainingDataSet = prtDataGenUnimodal; % training data
classifier = prtClassRvm; % Create a classifier
% Create a prtKernelSet object with a different pair of

Module: DXOpal::Sprite::CollisionCheck::ClassMethods
- Included in:
- DXOpal::Sprite
- Defined in:
- lib/dxopal/sprite/collision_check.rb
Instance Method Summary collapse

Run collision checking for set of sprites - offences: Sprite or [Sprite] - defences: Sprite or [Sprite] - shot: method name - hit: method name.
Instance Method Details
#check(offences, defences, shot = :shot, hit = :hit) ⇒ Object
Run collision checking for set of sprites
-
offences: Sprite or [Sprite]
-
defences: Sprite or [Sprite]
-
shot: method name
-
hit: method name
This method has two modes.
-
If `offences` and `defences` are the same, collision check will be performed on each pair from the array. Method `hit` is called on the each sprite, with the other sprite as an argument.
-
Otherwise, collision check will be performed on each pair of offence sprite and defence sprite. In this case, method `shot` is called on the offence sprite and method `hit` is called on the defence sprite, with the other sprite as an argument.
TODO: return true if any collition is detected TODO: skip collision checking if shot/hit returned `:discard`
