Bioc currentCharacterization of Alternative Splicing Based on Paired-End Reads
Release Lineage
Entered 2.12 · Apr 4, 2013
Current · Requires R 4.6
Description
Infer alternative splicing from paired-end RNA-seq data. The model is based on counting paths across exons, rather than pairwise exon connections, and estimates the fragment size and start distributions non-parametrically, which improves estimation precision.
