Statistical Models For Gene And Transcripts Quantification And Identification Using Rna-Seq Technology, Han Wu
Open Access Dissertations
RNA-Seq has emerged as a powerful technique for transcriptome study. As much as the improved sensitivity and coverage, RNA-Seq also brings challenges for data analysis. The massive amount of sequence reads data, excessive variability, uncertainties, and bias and noises stemming from multiple sources all make the analysis of RAN-Seq data difficult. Despite much progress, RNA-Seq data analysis still has much room for improvement, especially on the quantification of gene and transcript expression levels. The quantification of gene expression level is a direct inference problem, whereas the quantification of the transcript expression level is an indirect problem, because the label of …
