Our two-step approach can accurately predict functional states in any cell/tissue type of all the CRMs in the genome using data of only 1~4 epigenetic marks. Our approach is also more cost-effective than existing methods that typically use data of more epigenetic marks. Our results suggest common epigenetic rules for defining functional states of CRMs in various cell/tissue types in humans and mice.
