Signal to noise can be assessed by considering whether reads are falling into
known open regions (such as DHS regions) or not. A high fraction of reads
should fall into the universal (across cell type) DHS set. A small fraction
should fall into the blacklist regions. A high set (though not all) should
fall into the promoter regions. A high set (though not all) should fall into
the enhancer regions. The promoter regions should not take up all reads, as
it is known that there is a bias for promoters in open chromatin assays.

Reproducibility QC
N1: Replicate 1 self-consistent peaks (comparing two pseudoreplicates generated by subsampling Rep1 reads)
N2: Replicate 2 self-consistent peaks (comparing two pseudoreplicates generated by subsampling Rep2 reads)
Ni: Replicate i self-consistent peaks (comparing two pseudoreplicates generated by subsampling RepX reads)
Nt: True Replicate consistent peaks (comparing true replicates Rep1 vs Rep2)
Np: Pooled-pseudoreplicate consistent peaks (comparing two pseudoreplicates generated by subsampling pooled reads from Rep1 and Rep2)
Self-consistency Ratio: max(N1,N2) / min (N1,N2)
Rescue Ratio: max(Np,Nt) / min (Np,Nt)
Reproducibility Test: If Self-consistency Ratio >2 AND Rescue Ratio > 2, then 'Fail' else 'Pass'

For macs2 raw peaks:
repX: Peak from true replicate X
repX-prY: Peak from Yth pseudoreplicates from replicate X
pooled: Peak from pooled true replicates (pool of rep1, rep2, ...)
pooled-pr1: Peak from 1st pooled pseudo replicate (pool of rep1-pr1, rep2-pr1, ...)
pooled-pr2: Peak from 2nd pooled pseudo replicate (pool of rep1-pr2, rep2-pr2, ...)
For overlap/IDR peaks:
repX_vs_repY: Comparing two peaks from true replicates X and Y
repX-pr1_vs_repX-pr2: Comparing two peaks from both pseudoreplicates from replicate X
pooled-pr1_vs_pooled-pr2: Comparing two peaks from 1st and 2nd pooled pseudo replicates
