| In this work, hierarchical hidden Markov model (HHMM) is proposed for combining data from ChIP-seq and ChIP-chip. In HHMM, inference results from individual HMMs in ChIP-seq and ChIP-chip experiments are summarized by a higher level HMM. Simulation studies show the advantage of HHMM when data from both technologies co-exist. Analysis of two well-studied transcription factors, NRSF and CTCF, also suggests that HHMM yields improved TFBS identification in comparison to analyses using individual data sources or a simple merger of the two. pubmed
