title: 'segmenter: Perform Chromatin Segmentation Analysis in R by Calling ChromHMM'
version: 1.18.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.segmenter
abstract: Chromatin segmentation analysis transforms ChIP-seq data into signals over
  the genome. The latter represents the observed states in a multivariate Markov model
  to predict the chromatin's underlying states. ChromHMM, written in Java, integrates
  histone modification datasets to learn the chromatin states de-novo. The goal of
  this package is to call chromHMM from within R, capture the output files in an S4
  object and interface to other relevant Bioconductor analysis tools. In addition,
  segmenter provides functions to test, select and visualize the output of the segmentation.
