The first Jstacs workshop will be held on May, 19th at Martin Luther University. The aim of the workshop is to increase the visibility of Jstacs and the implemented projects, to bring developers and users together, as well as to identify further needs.

Depending on the audience the workshop will be held in English or German.

Abstract: Classifying short sequence signals is a standard task in genome analysis. One important application is to distinguish splice donor and acceptor sites from decoy. A standard solution of the problem utilizes the maximum entropy principle. Here, we discuss a generalizion of this approach based on the Tsallis entropy and its implementation in Jstacs.

Abstract: Changes in gene expression levels play a central role in tumors. Additional information about the distribution of gene expression levels and distances between adjacent genes on chromosomes should be integrated into the analysis of tumor expression profiles. We use a Hidden Markov Model with distance-scaled transition matrices (DSHMM) to incorporate chromosomal distances of adjacent genes on chromosomes into the identification of differentially expressed genes in breast cancer.

14:00 - 14:30 Michael Scharfe Talk A Hidden Markov Model for Phylogenetic Footprinting

Abstract: Phylogenetic footprinting is an important method to discover overrepresented and cross-species conserved sequence motifs (e.g. TFBSs). An extension of the classical Hidden Markov Model that implements phylogenetic emissions was developed using the HMM-Package of the current Jstacs version.
