Comprehensive assessment of computational algorithms in predicting cancer driver mutations.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The initiation and subsequent evolution of cancer are largely driven by a relatively small number of somatic mutations with critical functional impacts, so-called driver mutations. Identifying driver mutations in a patient's tumor cells is a central task in the era of precision cancer medicine. Over the decade, many computational algorithms have been developed to predict the effects of missense...
