Description

TRIPOD is a statistical framework for detecting three-way regulatory relationships between a cis-regulatory region, a transcription factor, and a target gene, which we call a "trio," using single-cell ATAC/RNA multiomic data. The main functionality of this package is as follows.

  • Infers trio regulatory relationships using robust nonparametric models
  • Builds RNA prediction models from ATAC-seq data
  • Identifies influential cell types in which a trio regulatory relationship is active
