Dahl could see it being adapted to make credibility assessments, like deciding who should get a loan, for example, by analyzing applicants in comparison with databases of borrowers who repaid their loans and those who did not.
Sequence comparison with databases was performed using BLAST through the NCBI server [ 25].
Compound identification was based on chromatographic (retention times, retention indices, standards) and spectroscopic (spectral interpretation, comparison with databases and standards) criteria [ 17, 18].
Though modest by comparison with databases for some other ruminants, such as cattle, our sequence collection for sheep may serve as a source for comparative studies in the bovids, an animal family of considerable importance to agronomic research.
The tomograms are displayed using a colour scale to provide a semi-quantitative assessment of regional tracer uptake, and comparison with databases of normal appearances allows objective assessment of the presence, depth and extent of abnormalities.
Table 2 shows the overview of final DOLite database and its comparison with DO database.
Apparently, this restriction site is very frequent in the genome [ 30], thus promoting the formation of short fragments, which makes comparisons with databases more difficult.
Computational processing, analyzing, and interpreting the massive amounts of data and genetic variants produced by NGS still remains challenging and requires comparisons with databases such as dbSNP and 1000 genomes project [ 3, 16].
Through comparison against gold-standard manually updated gene-disorder databases and comparison with automated databases of similar functionality we show that our tool can search through the entirety of PubMed to extract the main gene findings for human diseases rapidly and accurately.
