How To Fix estimateHyperPar: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu estimateHyperPar is provided by bitseq package.

bitseq is:

BitSeq is an application for inferring expression levels of individual transcripts from sequencing (RNA-Seq) data and estimating differential expression (DE) between conditions. An advantage of this approach is the ability to account for both technical uncertainty and intrinsic biological variance in order to avoid false DE calls. The technical contribution to the uncertainty comes both from finite read-depth and the possibly ambiguous mapping of reads to multiple transcripts.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install bitseq

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install bitseq.

sudo apt -y install bitseq

sudo aptitude install bitseq
