Bandwise normalization and batch correction of Hi-C data

Description

Tools to normalize (several) Hi-C data from replicates.

Details

The DESCRIPTION file: This package was not yet installed at build time.
Index: This package was not yet installed at build time.

The package implements the bnbc method for normalizing Hi-C data across samples. The name is short for band-wise normalization and batch correction. The main workhorse is the bnbc function. We recommend using smoothing and library size normalization first.

The package implements the ContactGroup class for storing multiple Hi-C contact matrices. This is most naturally done with one object per chromosome, which is ugly.

We also have functions for applying over a ContactGroup (cgApply) and working with matrix bands band, getBandIdx.
