Predicting regulatory variants using a dense epigenomic mapped CNN model elucidated the molecular basis of trait-tissue associations.

Abstract excerpt

Assessing the causal tissues of human complex diseases is important for the prioritization of trait-associated genetic variants. Yet, the biological underpinnings of trait-associated variants are extremely difficult to infer due to statistical noise in genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and because >90% of genetic variants from GWAS are located in non-coding regions. Here, we collected the largest human...
