HiCNN

HiCNN2


HiCNN2 is an improved version of our previously developed tool HiCNN for enhancing resolution of Hi-C data and uses three architectures to learn the mapping between low-resolution and high-resolution Hi-C contact matrices. HiCNN2-1 uses one convolutional neural network (ConvNet1); HiCNN2-2 consists of an ensemble of two different ConvNets (ConvNet1 and ConvNet2); HiCNN2-3 uses an ensemble of three different ConvNets (ConvNet1, ConvNet2, and ConvNet3).
