We collecte the information of all teams from 2004 to 2016, and devise algorithms to analyze it. The result of analyzation is used to build the backend database. Users can input keywords to search for teams related to these words. To obtain more specific searching results, users can select tracks or combination of tracks which are shown under the search box. Selecting no tracks means searching under all tracks.

We ran a classification algorithm under these different combination of tracks, and then used a keyword extraction algorithm to extract keywords of them. Users are free to select their interested group of tracks by checking out these keywords. The system can also recommend keywords related to the keywords input in the searching box. Once the “Search” button is clicked, the searching results will be listed on the screen. More detailed information will be shown if a team is selected. The address of the selected team’s wiki will also be shown in the page. At the meantime, similar teams will be recommended to users as reference.

Our project can be divided into two parts--searching and designing. To search for information of iGEM teams and biobricks, users can input keywords of what they want to get, and the results will be shown in a moment. Users can also search for information of certain tracks and combination of tracks by selecting tracks under the search box. Semantically similar keywords will be recommended to inspire further searching. Furthermore, among the searching results, clicking on any of the teams will be redirected to the detailed information page of the team, and the address of their wiki will also be shown in the page. A recommended list of similar teams will be shown on the right side along with the keywords of these teams.

As for designing, we inherited this part from the 2016 HFUT-China team and perfected it. Users can devise their own gene chains by dragging parts listed on the left and dropping them on a certain position of the chain. Once a part is chosen, the information of it will be shown. Moreover, parts which are most likely to appear ahead of or behind the part will be recommended to serve for convenience.

With the help of search function, users can have a clearer conception, or deeper understanding of their designs. Users can type in keywords in the searching box, then parts or compounds, some of which the users might be interested in, will be listed. The basic information, quality evaluation score and related registry page of them will also be exhibited.

For users who are interested in specific genes, to obtain more information, they do not have to scrutinize literatures in the online database on by one. Just input the name of that gene in the searching box, apart from the detailed information, users can see literatures and related diseases of that gene. We also provide corresponding links of these literatures, so users can read them on ncbi.

In system recommendation page, you can get compound / gene relation graph. By typing a compound name in the left search area, you can search compounds. Each compound is followed with a add button (move the mouse over it), click on it to add it to compounds you are interested in. Click the “run” button, you can get the result graph. By clicking the gene node or compound, you can get their information.
