normalizer {dStruct} | R Documentation |
Assesses normalization factor for raw reactivities using the 2-8 % method. Given a reactivity profile, first, remove 2% of the nucleotides with the highest reactivities. Then, the normalization factor is the mean of reactivities of the 8% of the nucleotides with the next highest reactivities.
