I have discovered, too, that digital devices bias reading toward the immediate and ephemeral, and printed information, being slower and more expensive, tends to be of higher quality.
The tendency to bias reading lists toward the dissertation topic, be it an author or a genre, does not cancel the obligation to cover the major figures and genres.
Having someone who is trained in the literature on gender bias read through all performance evaluations, which Ernst & Young has done for years, can help if your analysis shows that bias is affecting them.
On Q&A, for example, I either get enraged by tweets that I agree with ("Hey everyone, global warming can't be ignored" – yes, I know, I bloody well know) or, even worse, for the sake of balance they then have to put something up that's objectively false, otherwise the ABC will be accused of left-wing bias (read as "scientifically robust").
Candidate calls are filtered using a series of quality metrics, including strand bias, read location bias, and a custom database of sequencing artifacts derived from normal controls.
A remaining challenge for short read assemblers is reference sequence bias: reads that more closely resemble the reference sequence are more likely to successfully map as compared with reads that contain valid mismatches.
That said, each DO sample will have a unique set of SNPs and indels that can bias read alignment, and in total across a large population of DO mice, the number of alignment-sensitive genes will approach the sum of all genes that are sensitive to alignment bias across all of the eight founder strains.
He accuses "Arming America" of "a consistently biased reading of sources".If that is right, it raises two questions.
The remaining discrepancies may be the result of highly biased read distributions or incorrectly annotated gene structures.
Because coding regions are known to have a higher GC content than the genome average [ 51, 52] this procedure may introduce a GC biased read depth.
Assuming the libraries from both A-genomes and D- genomes would be equally biased, reads from D5-53 served as a control sample, estimating the expected coverage pattern.
