+over-represented in target regions compared to background regions after
+correcting for the bias arising from the imbalance in read counts and GC
+contents between the target and background regions.  For a given TF k, BiFET
+tests the null hypothesis that the target regions have the same probability of
+having footprints for the TF k as the background regions while correcting for
+the read count and GC content bias.")
