DIME (Differential Identification using Mixtures Ensemble)
Description
A robust differential identification method that considers an ensemble of finite
mixture models combined with a local false discovery rate (fdr) for
analyzing ChIP-seq data comparing two samples.
This package can also be used to identify differential
in other high throughput data such as microarray, methylation etc.
After normalization, an Exponential-Normal(k) or a Uniform-Normal(k) mixture is
fitted to the data. The (k)-normal component can represent either differential
regions or non-differential regions depending on their location and spread. The
exponential or uniform represent differentially sites. local (fdr) are
computed from the fitted model.
Unique features of the package:
Accurate modeling of data that comes from any distribution by the use of multiple normal components (any distribution can be accurately represented by mixture of normal).
Using ensemble of mixture models allowing data to be accurately & efficiently represented. Then two-phase selection ensure the selection of the best overall model.
This method can be used as a general program to fit a mixture of uniform-normal or uniform-k-normal or exponential-k-normal
