Description
Build a per-ORF P-site count vector for every candidate open reading
frame (ORF) in the catalogue. For each ORF, walks the spliced exons
in 3-nucleotide codon steps and counts the P-site positions
(read 5'-end coordinate plus the length-specific offset selected
upstream) that fall in each codon. Counts are summed across all read
lengths that passed the periodicity filter from
rpbp/getperiodiclengthsoffsets.
The resulting per-ORF vectors are the input to Bayesian translation
scoring in rpbp/estimateorfbayesfactors: a translated ORF should
show P-site density concentrated at codon-start positions, while a
non-translated region should look flat or noisy. Emitted as a sparse
matrix (one row per ORF, columns indexed by codon position).
