    摘要: A method for characterizing a sample comprising genetic information, comprising: (i) receiving a plurality of sequencing signals from a sequencing operation for a sample, each of the plurality of sequencing signals representing a genetic sequence; (ii) setting, based on a received sequencing signal, a bit within a bit array to a first value for the received sequencing signal, wherein a set of one or more bits is associated with a unique received sequencing signal; (iii) calculating a rate of change of bits within the bit array as new sequencing signals are received; (iv) comparing the rate of change to a predetermined threshold; and (v) identifying the sequencing operation as insufficient if the rate of change is at or above the predetermined threshold, or identifying the sequencing operation as sufficient if the rate of change is at or below the predetermined threshold.

    摘要: The present disclosure describes methods, kits, and systems for digesting polyribonucleotides. The method involves selectively forming oligonucleotide (e.g., DNA:RNA or RNA:RNA) duplexes with single-stranded target RNA and then using sequence-specific nucleases that only act on RNA within duplexes to selectively cleave the target RNA into smaller fragments. Additional sequence-specific ribonucleases may be used to provide additional cuts of the target RNA at predetermined sites. By forming duplexes to increase the availability of nucleases that may be applied to cleave the single-stranded target RNA and selectively control where the target RNA is cleaved, the target RNA may be digested into fragments within controllable size ranges that are optimal for polynucletide analysis, such as by liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry.

    摘要: There is provided a method for using a control apparatus to process one or more data inputs in a computing arrangement to provide one or more outputs comprising at least one of control outputs, analysis outputs, or recommendation outputs. The control apparatus is configured to execute real-time computing for a multi-dimensional system model spanned by state variables on one or more of finite domains or intervals. The one or more data inputs include one or more physical measurands of a system, and the one or more outputs provide a technical modification of the system. The method includes:



    providing a system model in which all valid combinations and associated properties or object functions are stored as interconnected relations distributed on one or more computers; and
    deducing one or more of:
    (i) any sub-space, corresponding to an input statement of states or combinations spanned by one or more state variable or associated properties or object functions, by deriving consequences of the input statement by applying constraints defined by the input statement to the system model; or
    (ii) any sub-space, corresponding to a query, of states or combinations spanned by one or more state variables or associated properties or object functions, by deriving consequences of the query by applying constraints defined by the query to the system model.

    摘要: This patent application relates generally to mixture deconvolution systems and methods for identifying DNA profiles. Various embodiments of the present invention concern the deconvolution of unknown DNA profiles in a two-person DNA mixture into two DNA profiles. Deconvolution methods isolate distinct DNA profiles from a DNA mixture without the need to match against DNA reference profiles. Various embodiments include a mixture deconvolution pipeline that involves a series of mathematical steps and machine learning algorithms to achieve the desired performance and decision-support outputs. Various embodiments enable distant familial matching to existing investigative genetic genealogy (IGG; also known as forensic genetic genealogy (FGG)) databases. This capability enables the generation of investigative leads from unresolved casework samples (i.e., DNA mixtures) by identifying possible genealogical relationships to one or more person(s) of interest. Such aspects may be performed in association with one or more systems used for genetic identification.
