Abstract excerpt
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) will likely facilitate a better understanding of the causes and consequences of human genetic variability. In this context, the validity of NGS-inferred single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) is of paramount importance. We therefore developed a statistical framework to assess the fidelity of three common NGS platforms. Using aligned DNA sequence data from two completely sequenced...
