Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pathogenicity predictors are integral to genomic variant interpretation but, despite their widespread usage, an independent validation of performance using a clinically relevant dataset has not been undertaken. METHODS: We derive two validation datasets: an 'open' dataset containing variants extracted from publicly available databases, similar to those commonly applied in previous benchmarking...
