What's The Points?

In which I talk about points for wins, losses, and draws in rugby league, and how framing of quantitative data is important.

The Baserate Fallacy, revisited

In which I share some iPython code for an interactive demo to calculate and visualise the probability that a positive test implies a positive result. You can get it here, and preview it here. Then I get entangled in a topic outwith my expertise.

ANI are you okay? Are you okay ANI?

In which I describe Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI), which we can use to pigeonhole bacteria into conceptual boxes labelled as 'species'. And I share more code.

A Nice New Paradox Redux: Paredux

In which I admit to a mistake.

A Nice New Paradox

In which I work through a popular statistical puzzle/paradox (with potential implications for interpretation of large data studies). With example code.

Surely this has been done already...

In which it turns out that if it was done already, it was hiding somewhere. Also, I share a script that retrieves the corresponding nucleotide coding sequences from NCBI, given only a set of protein sequences.

KEGGWatch, part III

In which I finally get around to sharing some code, and give some examples of downloading and modifying KEGG pathway maps.
