Journal ArticleDOI
Leaf image based cucumber disease recognition using sparse representation classification
TL;DR: This work proposes a novel cucumber disease recognition approach which consists of segmenting diseased leaf images by K-means clustering, extracting shape and color features from lesion information, and classifying disease leaf images using sparse representation (SR).

DeepARG: A deep learning approach for predicting antibiotic resistance genes from metagenomic data
Gustavo Arango-Argoty,Emily Garner,Amy Pruden,Lenwood S. Heath,Peter J. Vikesland,Liqing Zhang +5 more
TL;DR: A deep leaning approach to ARG forecasting is proposed, taking into account a dissimilarity matrix created using all known categories of ARGs, which demonstrates that the deepARG models can predict ARGs with both high precision and recall for most of the antibiotic resistance categories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of Nucleotide Substitution Among Simultaneously Duplicated Gene Pairs in Arabidopsis thaliana
Liqing Zhang,Brandon S. Gaut +1 more
TL;DR: No evidence of positive selection, little evidence that paralogs evolve at different rates, and no evidence of differential codon usage or third position GC content are found; this rate difference is lower than that of previously studied nonplant lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of Segmental Duplication in the Human Genome
TL;DR: The simulation suggests that many duplications containing genes have been selectively maintained in the genome, and the duplication frequencies in pericentromeric and subtelomeric regions are greater than the genome average by approximately threefold and fourfold.
Journal ArticleDOI
MSOAR 2.0: Incorporating tandem duplications into ortholog assignment based on genome rearrangement
TL;DR: Preliminary experimental results demonstrate that MSOAR 2.0 is a highly accurate tool for one-to-one ortholog assignment between closely related genomes, and shows the highest sensitivity.
