Flexible simulation of paired-insertion counts for single-cell ATAC-sequencing data


Bioconductor version: Release (3.23)

simPIC is a package for simulating single-cell ATAC-seq count data. It provides a user-friendly, well documented interface for data simulation. Functions are provided for parameter estimation, realistic scATAC-seq data simulation, and comparing real and simulated datasets.
