In DESeq, what exactly is baseMean and how is it computed?
My guess is that baseMean is a kind of normalized tag count (however if that's correct they would probably call it something like tagMean or exprMean, not baseMean?!)
I read "Analysing RNA-Seq with the DESeq package", version from April 21, 2011 but can not find an explanation of baseMean.
