Description: EventPointer is an R package to identify alternative
        splicing events that involve either simple (case-control
        experiment) or complex experimental designs such as time course
        experiments and studies including paired-samples. The algorithm
        can be used to analyze data from either junction arrays
        (Affymetrix Arrays) or sequencing data (RNA-Seq). In the
        latter, EventPointer can work with annotated splicing events or
        can build a splicing graph from the RNA-Seq reads and then
        identify new and specific alternative splicing events. The
        software returns a data.frame with the detected alternative
        splicing events: gene name, type of event (cassette,
        alternative 3',...,etc), genomic position, statistical
        significance and increment of the percent spliced in (Delta
        PSI) for all the events. The algorithm can generate a series of
        files to visualize the detected alternative splicing events in
        IGV. This eases the interpretation of results and the design of
        primers for standard PCR validation.
