MeLSI (Metric Learning for Statistical Inference) is a novel machine learning method for microbiome data analysis that learns optimal distance metrics to improve statistical power in detecting group differences. Unlike traditional distance metrics (Bray-Curtis, Euclidean, Jaccard), MeLSI adapts to the specific characteristics of your dataset to maximize separation between groups. The method uses an ensemble of weak learners to identify which microbial features drive group differences, providing both improved statistical power and biological interpretability through feature importance weights.

Have you ever index sorted cells in a 96 or 384-well plate and then sequenced using Sanger sequencing? If so, you probably had some struggles to either check the electropherogram of each cell sequenced manually, or when you tried to identify which cell was sorted where after sequencing the plate. Scifer was developed to solve this issue by performing basic quality control of Sanger sequences and merging flow cytometry data from probed single-cell sorted B cells with sequencing data. scifer can export summary tables, 'fasta' files, electropherograms for visual inspection, and generate reports.
