Abstract
The invention provides computer systems and methods for visualization and analysis of relationships between biological data.
Claims38
A computer system for genomic data visualization comprising:
- (a) a data analysis module that is configured to
- (i) receive a user supplied data set;
- (ii) analyze the user supplied biological data set in association with an ontological database;
- and
- (iii) provide an output;
- and
- (b) a graphical user interface (GUI) configured to receive the output;
- wherein the GUI comprises a plurality of views;
- wherein at least one of the plurality of views is configured to provide a visualization of all or a subset of the output;
- wherein the visualization uses data icons and feature icons;
- wherein the data icons individually represent at least one datum originating from the user supplied biological data set and at least one visual metric of the data icon represents a data value provided by the output;
- wherein the feature icons individually represent at least one feature originating from the ontological database and at least one visual metric of the feature icon represents a feature value provided by the output;
- wherein the graphical user interface is configured to allow a user to apply a filter by interacting with a data or feature icon;
- and
- wherein the computer system comprises a stand alone computer, a multicomponent computer, or a networked computer.

A method comprising, providing to a user a code to access an ontological database equipped to analyze a user provided biological data set, wherein the ontological database is stored in a stand alone computer, multicomponent computer, or a networked computer;
- and wherein
- (a) the code is provided upon the purchase of a product, wherein the product is used to generate the data set;
- (b) the code allows for repeated analysis of the data set using the ontological database;
- and
- (c) the user provided data set is a biological data set.

(canceled)
A method comprising:
- (a) obtaining a code associated with a product or service necessary to generate a biological data set;
- (b) generating the biological data set;
- (c) using the code to unlock tools to access an ontological database to analyze the data set wherein the ontological database is stored in a stand alone computer, a multi-component computer, or a networked computer;
- and
- (d) analyzing the data set.
2 more elements
A method comprising the steps of:
- (a) determining a set of experimental design criteria;
- (b) inputting the experimental design criteria into a system for prioritizing experimental results;
- (c) generating a biological data set using the experimental design criteria;
- (d) inputting the biological data set into the system for prioritizing experimental results;
- and
- (e) initiating a program whereby the system for prioritizing experimental results queries an ontological database for relationships based upon the experimental design criteria, compares the relationships to the biologic data set generated using the experimental design criteria, and prioritizes the biological data set based upon the comparison;
- wherein the system for prioritizing experimental results comprises a stand alone computer, a multi-component computer, or a networked computer.
