DESeq

DESeq

DESeq is a tool for hypothesis testing and differential gene expression analysis of RNA-seq data. The DESeq algorithm applies the negative binomial distribution and a Likelihood Ratio Test (LRT), it normalizes data by trimmed mean of M-values and circumvents a small sample size by incorporating information from all genes in a set of samples.
