HMMSplicer 0.9.5 – Discovery of Splice Junctions in RNA-Seq data

HMMSplicer 0.9.5

:: DESCRIPTION

HMMSplicer is an accurate and efficient algorithm for discovering canonical and non-canonical splice junctions in short read datasets. HMMSplicer identifies more splice junctions than currently available algorithms when tested on publicly available A. thaliana, P. falciparum, and H. sapiens datasets without a reduction in specificity. HMMSplicer was found to perform especially well in compact genomes and on genes with low expression levels, alternative splice isoforms, or non-canonical splice junctions. Because HHMSplicer does not rely on pre-built gene models, the products of inexact splicing are also detected. In addition, HMMSplicer provides a score for every predicted junction allowing the user to set a threshold to tune false positive rates depending on the needs of the experiment.

MapSplice 2.1.8 – Mapping of RNA-seq reads for Splice Junction Discovery

MapSplice 2.1.8

:: DESCRIPTION

MapSplice is an algorithm for mapping RNA-seq data to reference genome for splice junction discovery.  MapSplice algorithm to detect splice junctions without any dependence on splice site features. This enables MapSplice to discover non-canonical junctions and other novel splicing events, in additional to the more common canonical junctions.
