Information theoretic alignment free variant calling
While traditional methods for calling variants across whole genome sequence data rely on alignment to an appropriate reference sequence, alternative techniques are needed when a suitable reference does not exist. We present a novel alignment and assembly free variant callingmethod based on information theoretic principles designed to detect variants have strong statistical evidence for their ab...
متن کاملAn Information Theoretic Model for Database Alignment
As with many large organizations, the Government's data is split in many different ways and is collected at different times by different people. The resulting massive data heterogeneity means that government staff cannot effectively locate, share, or compare data across sources, let alone achieve computational data interoperability. The premise of our research is that it is possible to signific...
متن کاملS 6 Structural Variant Calling
S6.1 Genome-wide Structural Variant Detection We used whole-genome shotgun paired-end sequence data generated with both Illumina and Applied Biosystems SOLiD platforms from the genomes of six canid samples (including a additional Basenji only sequenced to low coverage on the Illumina platform, but excluding the Chinese wolf), to estimate the fraction of the genome with segmental duplications. O...
متن کاملEvaluating alignment and variant-calling software for mutation identification in C. elegans by whole-genome sequencing
Whole-genome sequencing is a powerful tool for analyzing genetic variation on a global scale. One particularly useful application is the identification of mutations obtained by classical phenotypic screens in model species. Sequence data from the mutant strain is aligned to the reference genome, and then variants are called to generate a list of candidate alleles. A number of software pipelines...
متن کاملCoval: Improving Alignment Quality and Variant Calling Accuracy for Next-Generation Sequencing Data
Accurate identification of DNA polymorphisms using next-generation sequencing technology is challenging because of a high rate of sequencing error and incorrect mapping of reads to reference genomes. Currently available short read aligners and DNA variant callers suffer from these problems. We developed the Coval software to improve the quality of short read alignments. Coval is designed to min...
