Recall DNA methylation levels at low coverage sites using a CNN model in WGBS.

ABSTRACT: DNA methylation is an important regulator of gene transcription. WGBS is the gold-standard approach for base-pair resolution quantitative of DNA methylation. It requires high sequencing depth. Many CpG sites with insufficient coverage in the WGBS data, resulting in inaccurate DNA methylation levels of individual sites. Many state-of-arts computation methods were proposed to predict the missing value. However, many methods required either other omics datasets or other cross-sample data. And most of them only predicted the state of DNA methylation. In this study, we proposed the RcWGBS, which can impute the missing (or low coverage) values from the DNA methylation levels on the adjacent sides. Deep learning techniques were employed for the accurate prediction. The WGBS datasets of H1-hESC an
