Abstract :
We present a deterministic version of our novel Monte-Carlo Regression based method MCReg [1] for transcriptome quantification from RNA-Seq reads. Experiments on simulated and real datasets demonstrate better transcriptome frequency estimation accuracy compared to that of the existing tools which tend to skew the estimated frequency toward super-transcripts.
