Differential expression analysis of RNA sequencing data by incorporating non-exonic mapped reads
Description
We developed a novel algorithm, XBSeq, where a statistical model was established based on the
assumption that observed signals are the convolution of true expression signals and sequencing
noises. The mapped reads in non-exonic regions are considered as sequencing noises, which follows
a Poisson distribution. Given measureable observed signal and background noise from RNA-seq data, true
expression signals, assuming governed by the negative binomial distribution, can be delineated
and thus the accurate detection of differential expressed genes.
