RNA-Seq Alignment v1.0 App Guide
... Alignment to ERCC—If selected, STAR aligns all reads to the ERCC RNA spike-in sequences, independent of alignment to the transcriptome. The aligner counts reads that align to each spike-in sequence, calculates FPKMs, and computes the correlation between FPKMs and the expected spike-in concentrations ...

Distinguishing genotype and phenotype in genetic programming

In principle, the true GADS data type is the list rather than the tuple; but a tuple can be seen as a list of limited length. Using a generator to convert from genotypes to phenotypes is ...
