Arguments

counts

A data frame/matrix of RNA-seq read counts or list of slots. If a list, then the function will return a Chain object with those slots.

design

Gene-specific design matrix. Must have rows corresponding to colums/libraries in RNA-seq data and colums corresponding to gene-specific variables.

starts
