DeepGRP: engineering a software tool for predicting genomic repetitive elements using Recurrent Neural Networks with attention

Abstract Background Repetitive elements contribute a large part of eukaryotic genomes. For example, about 40 to 50% of human, mouse and rat genomes are repetitive. So identifying and classifying repeats is an important step in genome annotation. This annotation step is traditionally performed using...
