Characterization of Alternative Splicing based on Paired-End Reads

Bioconductor version: 2.13

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.
