Advanced Peak Shape Tools (Beta)

A beta version of the new ChIP-seq analysis tool using a method based on peak shape to accurately detect peaks in ChIP-seq data.

Introduction

The Advanced Peak Shape Tools plugin provides advanced tools to manipulate peak shapes and find regions in sequencing data that exhibit a distinct shape. These tools can be used to interactively refine the results of ChIP-seq analysis or to perform shape-based analyses of sequencing data.

The Learn Peak Shape Filter tool creates a new peak shape filter from sequencing data and a set of positive and negative regions. The Apply Peak Shape Filter then applies a peak shape filter to sequencing data to discover regions (peaks), which match a given peak shape. The Score Regions tool scores genomic regions according to how well they match a given peak shape.
