Power calculator for detecting allelic imbalance using hierarchical Bayesian model

Abstract Objective Allelic imbalance (AI) is the differential expression of the two alleles in a diploid. AI can vary between tissues, treatments, and environments. Methods for testing AI exist, but methods are needed to estimate type I error and power for detecting AI and difference of AI between c...
