VEHiCLE: a Variationally Encoded Hi-C Loss Enhancement algorithm for improving and generating Hi-C data

Abstract Chromatin conformation plays an important role in a variety of genomic processes. Hi-C is one of the most popular assays for inspecting chromatin conformation. However, the utility of Hi-C contact maps is bottlenecked by resolution. Here we present VEHiCLE, a deep learning algorithm for res...
