Gaussian mixture model-based unsupervised nucleotide modification number detection using nanopore-sequencing readouts

Motivation Nucleotide modification status can be decoded from the Oxford Nanopore Technologies nanopore-sequencing ionic current signals. Although various algorithms have been developed for nanopore-sequencing-based modification analysis, more detailed characterizations, such as modification numbers, corresponding signal levels and proportions are still lacking. Results We present a framework for the unsupervised determination of the number of...
