The refinement of global fire databases and accumulation of longer-term records has further enabled such statistically-based analyses of empirical data, including relationships of global fire activity to anthropogenic explanatory variables [2] and circum-tropical fires to moisture and energy metrics [8].
For example, much of the UniProt protein database is an accumulation of experimental data per se, and from this perspective, it is data.
Such databases represent the accumulation of biological data, some of which has been manually curated from literature.
We took advantage of this database to explore the accumulation of DNA gain or loss in serial pre-diagnostic samples from cases and to investigate factors associated with the detection of CNVs in exfoliated urothelial cells from tumor-free men.
Imaging biobanks are an obvious way forward, allowing the accumulation of databases of radiological images and associated biomarkers into a repository.
Additionally, we eliminated two probable pseudogenes that have no corresponding transcripts indexed in the GenBank database and display mutation accumulations that result in the absence of the CC motif (Os04g09520) or a truncated 5' exon that curtails the signal peptide sequence (Os02g24720).
The feature values calculated from the available database are assumed to provide distinct accumulation points, where each accumulation point corresponds to a category.
In addition to the experimental data, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers USACEE) biota-sediment accumulation factor (BSAF) database was validated and used to model biouptake of contaminants for certain cases.
The FDR used as a cutoff for accepting Protein Pilot identified proteins was a local (sometimes called "instantaneous") FDR of 5% or lower, meaning that the protein with the lowest accepted score still had an estimated probability of less than 5% of being a false positive, based on the rate of increase in the accumulation of decoy database hits at that particular cutoff score.
With the accumulation of genomic databases, it has been possible to analyze homologous genes from diverse taxonomical groups.
The most successful method is that developed in Zimbabwe which has allowed the accumulation of a large database of measurements taken by extension workers.
