For each window inside a region considered, a Kruskal-Wallis test is computed on the factor scores of the codons found in this window, this for the three possible reading frames. If a proportion of at least \code{win.lim} windows in the region reject the null hypothesis of means equality between the reading frames, then, there is a good probability that a CDS is located in the region.\cr Inside the first and the last windows of a region submitted to the test, the relative position of the two Stop codons is used to determine if those windows can be used in the analysis. If the first Stop is located within the \code{stop.max} fraction of the 5' end of the window, then this window is kept in the analysis. In the same way, if the second Stop is located within the \code{stop.max} fraction of the 3' end of the window, this window is also kept in the analysis. } \value{The result is returned as a list containing three matrices (one for each reading frame). All matrices have the same structure, with rows corresponding to the regions between two Stop codons. Columns \code{Start} and \code{End} give the location of starting and ending positions of the region; and \code{CDS} is a binary indicator equal to 1 if a putative CDS is predicted, and to 0 if not. } \author{O.
