COVIDOUTCOME-estimating COVID severity based on mutation signatures in the SARS-CoV-2 genome.

Abstract excerpt

Numerous studies demonstrate frequent mutations in the genome of SARS-CoV-2. Our goal was to statistically link mutations to severe disease outcome. We used an automated machine learning approach where 1594 viral genomes with available clinical follow-up data were used as the training set (797 'severe' and 797 'mild'). The best algorithm, based on random forest classification combined with the LASSO feature...
