Predict Combined Function of Transcription Factors


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

Implement the BETA algorithm for infering direct target genes from DNA-binding and perturbation expression data Wang et al. (2013) . Extend the algorithm to predict the combined function of two DNA-binding elements from comprable binding and expression data.
