A maximum likelihood algorithm for reconstructing 3D structures of human chromosomes from chromosomal contact data

Abstract Background The development of chromosomal conformation capture techniques, particularly, the Hi-C technique, has made the analysis and study of the spatial conformation of a genome an important topic in bioinformatics and computational biology. Aided by high-throughput next generation seque...
