Open-source software tools developed by BCG
We put particular emphasis on software quality and the adherence of our tools with coding quality standards
by using the SoftWipe tool developed in
our sister lab at the
Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies. The three fancy tools presented at the bottom of this page used to evidently
be placeholders for the real tools we are developing, they have not been removed for fun's sake.
bigrig software (under development)
bigrig is a program to simulate historical biogeographical regions under the so-called DEC(+J) model.
raxtax software (source and binaries)
raxtax is a fast and efficient k-mer-based non-Bayesian taxonomic classifier for barcoding DNA sequences. Raxtax supports flexible lineages, reports mutiple hits per query and provides information about bias in the reference database.
P = NP software
Our new tool for exactly solving NP-hard problems in polynomial time.
The MCMC convergence tool
A provably correct tool that tells you if your MCMC chain has converged.
Machine learning meta-tool
Test this new meta tool for machine learning that given any kind of data will
tell you what your hypothesis is.
