Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: FRASER 2.0 (>=1.99.0), OUTRIDER 1.20+, LeafcutterMD via leafcutter 0.2.9+, DROP 1.4+, R 4.4+, BiocManager 1.30+

Before using code patterns, verify installed versions match. If versions differ:

• R: packageVersion('<pkg>') then ?function_name to verify parameters
• CLI: <tool> --version then <tool> --help to confirm flags

If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or TypeError, introspect the installed package and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying.

Outlier Splicing Detection

For clinical RNA-seq diagnostics in rare disease, the question is not "what differs between groups?" but "what is aberrant in this single patient relative to a panel of unaffected samples?". The statistical framework is single-sample-vs-cohort outlier detection, fundamentally different from two-group differential splicing. Tools in this space are designed for clinical Mendelian diagnostic settings.
