FAIRsharing record for: Cooler file format

This FAIRsharing record describes: Cooler is a file format that implements genomically-labeled sparse 2D arrays (matrices) with identical axes in HDF5. It is also the name of the Python package that supports the format. Cooler was designed for the storage and manipulation of extremely large Hi-C datasets at any resolution, but is not limited to Hi-C data in any way. Standard file extensions are .cool for single-resolution cooler files and .mcool for files storing multiple resolutions.

本FAIRsharing记录介绍如下内容：Cooler是一种基于HDF5实现的、带有基因组标注的轴完全一致的稀疏二维数组（矩阵）文件格式。同时，Cooler也是支持该格式的Python软件包的名称。Cooler最初设计用于任意分辨率下超大规模Hi-C数据集的存储与处理，但并未在任何层面局限于Hi-C数据。其标准文件扩展名规范为：单分辨率Cooler文件使用.cool作为后缀，存储多分辨率数据的文件则使用.mcool作为后缀。
