Predicting enhancer activity and variant impact using gkm-SVM.
Human mutation - 1 Sept 2017
Beer Michael A
Abstract excerpt
We participated in the Critical Assessment of Genome Interpretation eQTL challenge to further test computational models of regulatory variant impact and their association with human disease. Our prediction model is based on a discriminative gapped-kmer SVM (gkm-SVM) trained on genome-wide chromatin accessibility data in the cell type of interest. The comparisons with massively parallel reporter assays (MPRA) in...
