iEnhancer-ECNN: identifying enhancers and their strength using ensembles of convolutional neural networks

Abstract Background Enhancers are non-coding DNA fragments which are crucial in gene regulation (e.g. transcription and translation). Having high locational variation and free scattering in 98% of non-encoding genomes, enhancer identification is, therefore, more complicated than other genetic factor...
