Transcriptional enhancers: from properties to genome-wide predictions.

TL;DR: How properties of enhancer sequences and chromatin are used to predict enhancers in genome-wide studies are discussed and recently developed high-throughput methods that allow the direct testing and identification of enhancers on the basis of their activity are covered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular logic of neocortical projection neuron specification, development and diversity

TL;DR: This work provides substantial insight into the 'molecular logic' underlying cortical development and increasingly supports a model in which individual progenitor-stage and postmitotic regulators are embedded within highly interconnected networks that gate sequential developmental decisions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epigenomic Signatures of Neuronal Diversity in the Mammalian Brain

TL;DR: The first affinity purification approach to isolate nuclei from genetically defined cell types in a mammal is developed and this technique is combined with next-generation sequencing to show that three subtypes of neocortical neurons have highly distinctive epigenomic landscapes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolution of distributed association networks in the human brain.

TL;DR: A hypothesis about how association networks evolved their prominence and came to possess circuit properties vital to human cognition is offered, as well as its broad implications for understanding critical features of the human brain as a byproduct of size scaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conserved epigenomic signals in mice and humans reveal immune basis of Alzheimer’s disease

TL;DR: This work profiles transcriptional and chromatin state dynamics across early and late pathology in the hippocampus of an inducible mouse model of AD-like neurodegeneration and establishes the mouse as a useful model for functional studies of AD regulatory regions.

Random Forests

TL;DR: Internal estimates monitor error, strength, and correlation and these are used to show the response to increasing the number of features used in the forest, and are also applicable to regression.

Fast and accurate short read alignment with Burrows–Wheeler transform

TL;DR: Burrows-Wheeler Alignment tool (BWA) is implemented, a new read alignment package that is based on backward search with Burrows–Wheeler Transform (BWT), to efficiently align short sequencing reads against a large reference sequence such as the human genome, allowing mismatches and gaps.

Classification and Regression by randomForest

TL;DR: random forests are proposed, which add an additional layer of randomness to bagging and are robust against overfitting, and the randomForest package provides an R interface to the Fortran programs by Breiman and Cutler.

A Map of Human Genome Variation From Population-Scale Sequencing

TL;DR: The 1000 Genomes Project aims to provide a deep characterization of human genome sequence variation as a foundation for investigating the relationship between genotype and phenotype as mentioned in this paper, and the results of the pilot phase of the project, designed to develop and compare different strategies for genomewide sequencing with high-throughput platforms.
