Matt Ralston

M.Sc. Bioinfo + 5 years industry exp. - - - Looking for a position in biosciences. I'm gifted at the command line or computer terminal, but I perform best on my feet, standups, cleaning, guitar with samples in the centrifuge, more in the water bath, data being processed on the computer while I sleep, and other assays to plan. Currently writing a DNA sequence graph algorithm and manuscript (for bioRxiv). I play math rock on my guitar, I have some open-source software on GitHub, I pay my bills in the DE-NJ-PA tri-state area near Delco, and I'm launching a DE-based LLC for Univ. of Delaware and local NGS sequencing projects.

kmerdb PCA

Standardizing on int64 for counts, kmerdb runs principal components analysis on matrices to create the metavariables, the principal components, focusing on those with the highest proportion of variance.

This subcommand of the Python Package Authority (PyPA) package kmerdb writes/reads Pandas DataFrames from STDIN/STDOUT, and produces matplotlib graphics alongside the dim. reduced output.
