Sequencing by Emergence: Modeling and Estimation

no code implementations • 18 Mar 2021 • Nicholas Boyd, Samuel Woodhouse, Kalim Mir

Sequencing by Emergence (SEQE) is a new single-molecule nucleic acid (DNA/RNA) sequencing technology that estimates sequence as an emergent property of the binding and localization of a repertoire of short oligonucleotide probes.

We extend the adaptive regression spline model by incorporating saturation, the natural requirement that a function extend as a constant outside a certain range.
