et al. present their open-source software package DGW (Dynamic Gene Warping) in this December 2016 paper published in
BMC Informatics. Used for the "simultaneous alignment and clustering of multiple epigenomic marks," the software uses a process called dynamic time warping (DTW) to capture epigenomic mark structure. The authors conclude that their research shows "that DGW can be a practical and user-friendly tool for exploratory data analysis of high-throughput epigenomic data sets" and demonstrates "potential as a useful tool for biological hypothesis generation."

In this short paper published in December 2016, Hiner et al. of the University of Wisconsin at Madison demonstrate their open-source library SCIFIO (SCientific Image Format Input and Output). Built on inspiration from the Bio-Formats library for microscopy image data, SCIFIO attempts to act as “a domain-independent image I/O framework enabling seamless and extensible translation between image metadata models.” Rather than fight with the difficulties of repeating experiments based on data in proprietary formats, SCIFIO’s open-source nature help with reproducibility of research results and proves “capable of adapting to the demands of scientific imaging analysis.”
