tagDensity: Smoothed tag density

In ChIC: Quality Control Pipeline for ChIP-Seq Data

Description

Calculates the smoothed tag density using spp::get.smoothed.tag.density

tagDensity

Usage

tagDensity(data, tag.shift, annotationID = "hg19", mc = 1)

Arguments

data,	data-structure with tag information (see readBamFile())
tag.shift,	Integer containing the value of the tag shif, calculated by getCrossCorrelationScores()
annotationID	String, indicating the genome assembly (Default="hg19")
mc	Integer, the number of CPUs for parallelization (default=1)

Value

smoothed.density A list of lists, each list corresponds to a chromosome and contains a vector of coordinates of the 5' ends of the aligned tags

Examples

## This command is time intensive to run
##
## To run the example code the user must provide two bam files for the ChIP
## and the input and read them with the readBamFile() function. To make it
## easier for the user to run the example code we provide tow bam examples 
## (chip and input) in our ChIC.data package that have already been loaded 
## with the readBamFile() function.
