Hi Hao, In order to get the SVM score for each 50-mer, you will need the .wib file that the table uwNucOccA375 is referencing. This file can be found here: ftp://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/gbdb/hg18/wib/uwNucOccA375.wib. More information about how to use this file can be found here: https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2007-May/013503.html.
I hope this information is helpful. Please do feel free to contact the mail list again if you require further assistance.
