removeNonBellShapedMotifs: Remove non-bell shpape motifs prior to binding signal...

In ManchesterBioinference/Motif2Site: Detect binding sites from motifs and ChIP-seq experiments, and compare binding sites across conditions

Description

Gets motif locations and related short reads and returns the motifs which are non-skewed abs(skewness) < 0.3 and more short reads binds closer to site.

It counts around motif with interval windowSize and windowSize/2, if the smaller window is less than half of the larger one then motif is not considered as Bell-shape

Usage

removeNonBellShapedMotifs(motifLocations, readLocations, windowSize)

Arguments

motifLocations	A vector of motif locations
readLocations	A vector of 1nt short reads
windowSize	Window size around binding site. The total region would be 2*windowSize+1

Value

The coordinates of accepted motifs
