Nucleosome positioning in HMDs is predictable by k-mer SVM. a Examples of prediction of nucleosome linkers (DNase I accessible regions) by k-mer SVM in HMDs on chromosome 8. Dark purple indicates the score higher than 0, light purple, lower than 0. Pearson’s correlation and its P value between DNase I signal and SVM score for every 20 bp along the HMD are shown on the right. b A histogram of correlations for all HMDs on chromosome 8. Green and gray boxes represent the number of HMDs with and without significant correlation (P < 0.05), respectively. c A histogram of distances between top 10 SVMDNaseI-weight 6-mers within HMDs. Distances shorter than 3 bp were excluded from the histogram
