Description

Would be nice to add the IDR analysis that is currently carried out by the ENCODE pipelines:
https://github.com/kundajelab/atac-seq-pipeline
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1f0Cm4vRyDQDu0bMehHD7P7KOMxTOP-HiNoIvL1VcBt8/edit

Another implementation in NF:
https://github.com/DoaneAS/atacflow

ENCODE ATAC-seq Guidelines:
https://www.encodeproject.org/atac-seq/

Amongst other things, this will probably also involve creating pseudo-replicates by merging and equally sampling alignments across replicates.

See: https://github.com/nf-core/atacseq/issues/36

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked ENCODE ATAC-seq pipeline, atacflow implementation, ENCODE guidelines, and related nf-core/atacseq issue 36. Clarify the required IDR analysis and pseudo-replicate process, including merging and equally sampling alignments across replicates; done should include the requested analysis in the pipeline with appropriate validation.
