Sequencing technology is now the platform of choice for many researchers trying to quantify expression of mRNA. Sequencing data offers a great deal of additional specificity over comparable microarray platforms. However, sequencing data data comes with a large computational overhead. Furthermore, the presence of alternative splicing, found in most higher organism, adds enormous complexity to...
