Description

CI Docs MIT license

CpelTdm is a julia package designed to perform DNA methylation differential analysis. The package is based on a recently published method [1], and has several advantages when compared to traditional DNA methylation differential analysis packages. CpelTdm not only detects mean methylation level differences between groups, but it can also detect significant differences in methylation entropy as well as in the probability distribution of methylation (see [1] for technical details).

Testing

CpelTdm is tested against Julia 1.3.0 on the latest versions of Linux, macOS and Windows.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • julia v1.3.0
  • git.
