Introduction

fluff is a software package that allows for simple exploration, clustering and visualization of high-throughput sequencing experiments mapped to a reference genome. The package contains three command-line tools to generate publication-quality figures:

  • heatmap: clustering and visualization in a heatmap
  • bandplot: visualization of average profiles of clustered data in small multiples
  • profile: creating genome browser-like genomic profiles
