Sniper: improved SNP discovery by multiply mapping deep sequenced reads.
Genome biology - 20 Jun 2011
Simola Daniel F, Kim Junhyong
Abstract excerpt
SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) discovery using next-generation sequencing data remains difficult primarily because of redundant genomic regions, such as interspersed repetitive elements and paralogous genes, present in all eukaryotic genomes. To address this problem, we developed Sniper, a novel multi-locus Bayesian probabilistic model and a computationally efficient algorithm that explicitly incorporates...
