Abstract:

Recent advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology now provide the potential to detect all single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) including rare ones in a genomic region. The power of NGS based SNP detection is critically dependent upon the accuracy of base calling. In this talk, I will first discuss our recently developed base calling algorithm that was built on random-effect-multivariate-mixture-model. I will then discuss our new likelihood based SNP caller, Genotype Model Selection (GeMS), which accounts for genomic sample preparation errors as well as base-calling and alignment errors. We will demonstrate that the proposed base caller and SNP caller result in a significant improve in the power of SNP detection.
