GMD 0.3.3 – Generalized Minimum Distance of Distributions

GMD 0.3.3

:: DESCRIPTION

GMD is an R package to assess the similarity between spatial distributions of read-based sequencing data such as ChIP-seq and RNA-seq. GMD calculates the optimal distance between pairs of normalized signal distributions, optionally sliding one distribution over the other to ‘align’ the distributions. GMD also provides graphical and downstream clustering tools.
