DeepER is a deep learning-based tool to predict R-loop forming sequences. The basic framework of DeepER includes one layer of Bi-LSTM and two layers of Bi-LSTM with residual blocks, followed by a fully connected layer activated by sigmoid. Base-level probability of R-loop fromation will be predicted for a given 5kb-long sequence. A sliding window approach (window size = 200bp and step size = 10bp) is then applied to find R-loop-forming regions, defined as consecutive sequences showing average probability >= 0.95 (default cut_off).
