title: 'RNAshapeQC: RNA Coverage-Shape-Based Quality Control Metrics'
version: 1.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.RNAshapeQC
abstract: RNAshapeQC provides coverage-shape-based quality control (QC) metrics for
  mRNA-seq and total RNA-seq data. It supports per-gene pileup construction from BAM
  files as well as toy datasets for quick-start examples. The package implements protocol-specific
  metrics, including decay rate (DR), degradation score (DS), mean coverage depth
  (MCD), window coefficient of variation (wCV), area under the curve (AUC), and shape-based
  sample-level indices. RNAshapeQC also includes HPC-friendly functions for per-gene
  batch processing and cross-study pileup generation. This package enables interpretable,
  protocol-specific QC assessments for diverse RNA-seq workflows.
