6 4 / 13 Goals Short-Term use existing tools to identify known mirnas analyze novel mirnas

7 4 / 13 Goals Short-Term use existing tools to identify known mirnas analyze novel mirnas Long-Term de-novo viral (pre-)mirna prediction systematic overview of mirnas encoded by RNA viruses

8 5 / 13 Datasets and Tools

9 6 / 13 small RNA-Seqs

10 6 / 13 small RNA-Seqs

11 6 / 13 small RNA-Seqs small RNA-Seq

12 7 / 13 mirna Detection Tools raw-reads pre-processing processed reads individual candidates mirna prediction tools mapped reads intersection of candidate sets candidates

13 8 / 13 Progress

14 9 / 13 First Results raw-reads pre-processing processed reads individual candidates mirna prediction tools mapped reads intersection of candidate sets candidates

15 10 / 13 First Results mirdeep2 and HHMMiR mirdeep2 detected annotated mirnas of BLV HHMMiR predicted novel mirnas in turnip crinkle virus (TCV)

16 10 / 13 First Results mirdeep2 and HHMMiR mirdeep2 detected annotated mirnas of BLV HHMMiR predicted novel mirnas in turnip crinkle virus (TCV) However: Tools that uses machine learning methods and classifiers are trained against a specific model (Homo sapiens, Arabidopsis thaliana, etc...)

17 11 / 13 Outlook Next steps Gather more data Get other tools running Triplet-SVM, NovoMIR, ncpro-seq, CoRaL, mipred, mireader, miranalyzer,...

18 11 / 13 Outlook Next steps Gather more data Get other tools running Triplet-SVM, NovoMIR, ncpro-seq, CoRaL, mipred, mireader, miranalyzer,... Compare results of different tools Understand differences in the results (If there are any)
