raw allele-specific read count or normalized count? #4

Open ghost opened 3 years ago

Hi,

I want to ask about the input read count value? Should I simply give the raw allele-specific read count? Or should I normalize (for library size differences) the raw count by myself and then run for ASE?

I would presume that the likelihood method doesn't need the count be normally distributed, so the quantile normalization would be skipped for this purpose, right?

Thanks for your help!

Hi Meiyuan,

The input use the raw allelic count. Yes, no need to normalize.

Best, Jiaxin
