http://regulatorygenomicsgroup.org/chicago

Statistical pipeline for detecting significant chromosomal interactions in Capture Hi-C data. CHiCAGO uses a convolution background model accounting for both random Brownian collisions between chromatin fragments and technical noise. CHiCAGO then performs a p-value weighting procedure based on the expected true positive rates at different distance ranges, with scores representing soft-thresholded -log weighted p-values., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.
