Dear Colleague,

I've downloaded the hg18 file "uwNucOccA375.txt".

In the table schema, it is said that "The output of the SVM is a unitless 
discriminant score. In the browser, the score of a 50-mer is assigned to its 
26th base. Canonically, a score of 0 indicates an uncertain assignment; a score 
of 1.0 corresponds to a confident prediction for being in the positive class 
(i.e., a position of frequent nucleosome occupancy), and a score of -1.0 
corresponds to a confident prediction for being in the negative class."

I want to decide whether a segment of hg18 DNA is of frequent nucleosome 
occupancy or nucleosome-free.
I didn't figure out how to get the score from the "uwNucOccA375.txt" file.
Is there a column in the "uwNucOccA375.txt" file correspond to the score 
(output of the SVM)?
Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Hao
