Siavash Mirarab scale flow graft tnrs WS
Siavash Mirarab Comments: I am interested in TNRS, but have little experience with it. I am familiar with gene duplication concepts, so I can help with the reconciliation use case (if included). I work on meta-genomics, so I can help with a meta-genomic use case.

Emily Jane McTavish tree prov scale doc graft tnrs use other
Emily Jane McTavish Comments: My background is phylogenetics, and some bioinformatics. I'm most comfortable with python, fine with SQL, knew C++ and could probably remember if pressed. I'm particularly interested in how to incorporate uncertainty from source trees into phylotastic output, and make it handy without being dangerously blackboxy.

Column Names and Descriptions

  • tree (back-end trees): you know where to get large trees (>1K species) and make them available via some data store
  • prov (provenance annotation): you can use metadata to keep track of where results came from
  • scale (branch length): estimation: you can adapt tools that estimate missing branch lengths on species trees
  • viz (visualization): you can adapt an existing phylogeny visualization tool for new inputs and capabilities
  • flow (workflows): you can assemble web services (or other resources) into an executable workflow
  • doc (documentation): you can make screencasts and write clear how-to documents
  • grft (grafting & pruning): you can implement algorithms for grafting and pruning input trees to create a synthetic tree
  • Nex (NeXML spec): you can help expand the NeXML spec to cover the Phylotastic use-case
  • mash (semantic integration, mashups): you can write tools to discover, collect and integrate online data
  • TNRS (taxonomic name resolution): you can use and adapt tools to map one set of names to another
  • use (use-case expert): you know a real pruning-grafting-integration problem that can be used to test Phylotastic
  • WS (web service interfaces): you can design and implement interfaces to wrap existing tools
  • other (something else): you can contribute to this project in ways we haven't imagined yet
