$GOOG Is Giving Away AI That Can Build Your Genome Seq. https://Research.GoogleBlog.com/2017/12/deepvariant-highly-accurate-genomes.html + https://www.Wired.com/story/google-is-giving-away-ai-that-can-build-your-genome-sequence GATK creators now doing a tensor-flow version. Release sounded a bit like IBM unveiling Deep Blue decades ago: “Today, we announce…DeepVariant, a #DeepLearning tech…"
Steven Salzberg’s response to deep variant:

QT:{{"On Monday, Google released a tool called DeepVariant that uses deep learning—the machine learning technique that now dominates AI—to identify all the mutations that an individual inherits from their parents.1 Modeled loosely on the networks of neurons in the human brain, these massive mathematical models have learned how to do things like identify faces posted to your Facebook news feed, transcribe your inane requests to Siri, and even fight internet trolls. And now, engineers at Google Brain and Verily (Alphabet’s life sciences spin-off) have taught one to take raw sequencing data and line up the billions of As, Ts, Cs, and Gs that make you you.”

Abstract
The expectation maximization algorithm arises in many computational biology applications that involve probabilistic models. What is it good for, and how does it work?
without too much math

Your coffee maker is a #bacterial breeding ground http://qz.com/564102/your-coffee-maker-is-a-bacterial-breeding-ground/ Bugs love the warm water but it appears cleaning is effective
QT:{{"
“The researchers only counted the number of different bacteria types in their samples, not the total cells. A CBS investigation earlier this year found bacteria including staphylococcus and E. coli on the Keurig machines it swabbed. More than half were harboring millions of bacteria cells.
Bacteria appear to thrive in the high temperatures and chemical makeup of the coffee making process itself. Neither user behavior, the type of coffee brewed, nor frequency of the machine’s use seemed to affect the composition of the bacteria present.”
