When downloading Recount2 tx-dataset (either via the R package or via their website) such as this dataset I get a RangedSummarizedExperiment which contain 4 assays:

assays(rse_tx)

• "fragments"
• "ses"
• "scores"
• "df"

Fragments are self-explanatory (counts from paired end data) - but what are the other 3 "assays".

Hi there, "ses" is the standard errors of the fragments estimates, "scores" is score between 0 and 1 that dictates how uniquely identifiable each transcript is under the model we fit (0 being perfectly redundant, and 1 being perfectly unique). "df" is the degrees of freedom that particular transcript has in the linear model. Thanks!
