An open-source, BSD-licensed Python package providing data structures, algorithms, and educational resources for bioinformatics.
Scikit-bio

- Python
- Bioinformatik, Datenanalyse, Ökologie und Nachhaltigkeit, Mathematik
- Biologie, Ökologie, Maschinelles Lernen, Statistische Analyse, Statistische Tests
Merkmale:
- Sequence alignment (local,global,Smith-Waterman,Needleman-Wunsch),phylogenetic tree construction and manipulation,diversity calculations (alpha and beta diversity),ordination methods (PCoA,RDA),microbial ecology analysis (e.g.,UniFrac),statistical methods for bioinformatics,biological sequence representation,tree data structures
Preisgestaltung:
- Kostenlos
- Provides a range of core bioinformatics algorithms and data structures, good for microbial ecology and phylogenetic analysis, integrates with QIIME, open-source and community-driven.
- Development seems to have slowed significantly in recent years, some modules might be less actively maintained or superseded by other libraries (e.g.,Biopython for general sequence work, scikit-learn for general ML), smaller community compared to Biopython.
Am besten geeignet für:
- Bioinformaticians and ecologists working on sequence analysis, phylogenetics, and microbial community ecology, particularly those using or contributing to the QIIME ecosystem.
