Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Molecular profiling has become essential for tumor risk stratification and treatment selection. However, cancer genome complexity and technical artifacts make identification of real variants a challenge. Currently, clinical laboratories rely on manual screening, which is costly, subjective, and not scalable. We present a machine learning-based method to distinguish artifacts from bona fide...
