Identify Alternative Splicing Event using exon and junction count table

Hi folks,

I'm trying to identify alternative splicing events using the junction count table and exon count table generated by STAR, as well as the feature count obtained from RNA-seq data. The example dataset is shown below. I was wondering if it is possible to identify five types of alternative splicing events based solely on these two files. if so, is there a tool can be used for such a task?

Thanks!!!

Please do not paste screenshots of plain text content, it is counterproductive. You can copy paste the content directly here (using the code formatting option shown below), or use a GitHub Gist if the content volume exceeds allowed length here.

I think you're referring to the SJ.out.tab, aren't you? In that case, it summarizes the SJs and their coverage. To analyze splicing variants you need to perform the assembly first since a SJ doesn't necessarily produce an transcript. A transcript assembler such as StringTie can do the job.
