Chromatin State Inference

Acerca de

Streamlines the process of inferring chromatin states through a comprehensive ChromHMM-based workflow for genomic analysis. It guides users through the essential steps of data binarization and multivariate Hidden Markov Model learning, enabling the identification of functional elements such as promoters, enhancers, and repressed regions. This skill is ideal for bioinformaticians and researchers who need to transform raw sequencing data into annotated genomic maps while optimizing parameters like bin size and state count for high-resolution insights.
