#' Evaluate introns and exons expressions from BAM or SAM files
#' @description Given a TranscriptDb object and a list of BAM or SAM files 
#' "quantifyExpressionsFormBAMs" evaluates exons and introns expressions
#' and the associated variances per each gene.
#' @param txdb A TranscriptDB object
#' @param BAMfiles A vector of paths
#' @param experimentalDesign A numerical which reports the desing of the experiment in terms of time points and replicates.
#' Time points must be ordered according to the sequence of files submitted for the analysis, these labels characterize
#' different files as replicates of a given condition.
#' @param by A character, either "gene" or "tx", indicating if expressions and counts should be summarized at the levels of 
#' genes or transcripts. "gene" by default.
#' In case "tx" is selected, we suggest to set argument "allowMultiOverlap" to TRUE, otherwise the reads mapping to overlapping
#' transcripts of the same gene will remain unassigned.
#' @param countMultiMappingReads A logical, if multimapping reads should be counted, FALSE by default. Multimap reads are 
#' identified using the tag "NH" in the bam/sam file.
#' @param allowMultiOverlap A logical, indicating if a read is allowed to be assigned to more than one feature, FALSE by default
#' @param prioritizeExons A logical, indicating whether reads assigned to exon shold not be accounted for intron counts.
#' If set to FALSE, reads with shared overlap between an exon and the following intron will be assigned also to introns. This could improve
#' intronic quantification in experimental settings (including polyA library preparation) or compact genomes were intronic reads are 
#' sampled at a very low rate compared to exonic reads. By default, TRUE.
#' @param libsize A character, either "assigned" or "all", indicating whether the libsize for expression normalization should include all 
#' mapped reads or only the reads assigned to any of the features. By default, "assigned" is selected.
#' @param strandSpecific Numeric, 0 if no strand-specific read counting should be performed, 1 stranded, 2 reversely-stranded. 0 by default
#' @param isPairedEnd A logical, if paired-end reads are used, FALSE by default
#' @param DESeq2 A logical, if TRUE exons and introns variances are evaluated through the package DESeq2, if FALSE through plgem
#' @param varSamplingCondition A character reporting which experimental condition should be used to sample the variance if DESeq2 = FALSE. 
#' @param BPPARAM Parallelization parameters for bplapply. By default SerialParam()
#' By default, the first element of "experimentalDesign" with replicates.
#' @return A list containing expressions and associated variances for exons and introns.
