The aggregated data was matched to reference chemical libraries to aid in identifying the ion set as a known metabolite or as a new unknown biochemical to be added to the library.
MiRNAs were the major component of small RNA libraries from rESCs being 60% of sequences, which were matched to reference miRNAs in each sample.
For detecting known miRNAs, clean reads were matched to reference miRNA precursor sequences in the rhesus macaque (miRBase version 16.0) using Blastall (-p blastn -F F -e 0.01).
Short sequences can be matched to longer reference sequences for which it is possible to more robustly reconstruct phylogeny and make taxonomic assignments.
Of the 301 tree morphospecies, 254 could be matched to a reference voucher with an accepted species name (94% of the inventoried individuals).
It should be mentioned that there are still 34.4-38.634.4-38.6% that cannot be matched to the reference genome.
Note that each block Z y may be matched to different references ( {Z}_x,{Z}_{x^{prime }} ), resulting in different estimates ( {hat{Y}}_{x,k},{hat{Y}}_{x^{prime },{k}^{prime }} ) for the same block, i.e., ( {left({hat{S}}_xright)}_k={left({hat{S}}_{x^{prime }}right)}_{k^{prime }}=y ) in this case.
On a per patient basis, the linear translation (i.e. the shift in space) of each volume to be matched to the volume of reference was called displacement vector.
Each patient was matched (according to year of birth) to 3 controls in the reference group (N = 18,416), except for 4 patients, who could only be matched to 2 controls from the reference group.
A higher PSH indicates that a larger proportion of the haplotypes in the validation population, which need to be imputed, can be matched to corresponding haplotypes in the reference population and thereby be more accurately imputed.
