## GOALS:

## Background: Suppose all reads could be represented by a point that
## is "close" to the underlying binding site (this could be the center
## of our extended intervals).  Without loss of generality, the
## locations of these points could be modeled as a non-uniform Poisson
## process.  Comparisons between lanes (or unions of lanes), say lane
## A and lane B, could be viewed as the null hypothesis that the
## intensities of the corresponding processes are multiples of each
## other (the constant factor c reflecting differences in the overall
## number of reads).  In this situation, suppose we had an interval I
## where A had exactly k points.  Then conditional on I, the number of
## points in I from B would be Poisson(c * |I|), where |I| is some
## measure of the length of I.  The unconditional distribution would
## be a Poisson mixture over the distribution of |I|, which would
## hopefully depend only on k and not the unknown Poisson process
## intensity.

## Anyway, so one pseudo-logical choice of I is as follows: within
## each ``island'', choose the shortest interval covering k reads.

## We are doing things in terms of islands, not point estimates.  In
## terms of coverage x on an island, viewSums(x) / 200L gives the
## number of reads in the island.  For now, we will assume this is
## also approximately true (and meaningful) for parts of an island.
## So we could think of finding shortest subintervals in an island so
## that viewSums(x) / 200L is close to k.  We would then count
## viewSums(x) for the other lane.

## For now, we won't even do that.  We will just slice coverage of A
## at k, and for the resulting "peaks", do viewSums() on both A and B.
## We can then think of the values on A as predictor and those on B as
## response, and maybe come up with some sort of variance model.
