kissDE-package: Retrieves condition-specific variants in RNA-seq data

In kissDE: Retrieves Condition-Specific Variants in RNA-Seq Data

Description

The kissDE package retrieves condition-specific variants in RNA-seq data. Each variation (SNVs, alternative splicing events) is represented as a pair of variants. The quantification of each variant is summarized as a count, in each condition and each replicate where it was measured. The package tests for enrichment of a variant in a condition. Data counts are modelled using either a poisson or a negative binomial. Likelihood ratio tests are then performed using the GLM (Generalized Linear Model) framework.
