Spliceator: multi-species splice site prediction using convolutional neural networks
Abstract Background Ab initio prediction of splice sites is an essential step in eukaryotic genome annotation. Recent predictors have exploited Deep Learning algorithms and reliable gene structures from model organisms. However, Deep Learning methods for non-model organisms are lacking. Results We d...
