Abstract: ABSTRACT A popular way to model correlated count data with excess zeros and over-dispersion simultaneously is by means of the multilevel zero-inflated negative binomial (MZINB) distribution. Due to the complexity of the likelihood of these… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12859-019-3156-z
Abstract: BackgroundDeep sequencing of transposon mutant libraries (or TnSeq) is a powerful method for probing essentiality of genomic loci under different environmental conditions. Various analytical methods have been described for identifying conditionally essential genes whose tolerance… read more here.
