Structure of Classifier Boundaries: Case Study for a Naive Bayes Classifier

no code implementations8 Dec 2022 Alan F. Karr, Zac Bowen, Adam A. Porter

Whether based on models, training data or a combination, classifiers place (possibly complex) input data into one of a relatively small number of output categories.

Application of Markov Structure of Genomes to Outlier Identification and Read Classification

no code implementations24 Dec 2021 Alan F. Karr, Jason Hauzel, Adam A. Porter, Marcel Schaefer

In this paper we apply the structure of genomes as second-order Markov processes specified by the distributions of successive triplets of bases to two bioinformatics problems: identification of outliers in genome databases and read classification in metagenomics, using real coronavirus and adenovirus data.

Measuring Quality of DNA Sequence Data via Degradation

no code implementations24 Dec 2021 Alan F. Karr, Jason Hauzel, Adam A. Porter, Marcel Schaefer

We propose and apply a novel paradigm for characterization of genome data quality, which quantifies the effects of intentional degradation of quality.

Specified Certainty Classification, with Application to Read Classification for Reference-Guided Metagenomic Assembly

no code implementations13 Sep 2021 Alan F. Karr, Jason Hauzel, Prahlad Menon, Adam A. Porter, Marcel Schaefer

Specified Certainty Classification (SCC) is a new paradigm for employing classifiers whose outputs carry uncertainties, typically in the form of Bayesian posterior probabilities.
