Dimension Reduction

Discovering structural units of chromosomal organization with matrix factorization and graph regularization

The three-dimensional (3D) organization of the genome is an important layer of regulation in developmental, disease, and evolutionary processes. Hi-C is a high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (3C) assay used to study the 3D genome by …
