Tandem Repeat Analysis by Capillary Electrophoresis

A pipeline for short tandem repeat instability analysis from fragment analysis data. Inputs of fsa files or peak tables, and a user supplied metadata data-frame. The package identifies ladders, calls peaks, identifies the modal peaks, calls repeats, then calculates repeat instability metrics (e.g. expansion index from Lee et al. (2010) <doi:10.1186/1752-0509-4-29>).
