Accurate standards and extensive development datasets are the foundation of technical progress. To facilitate benchmarking and development, we sequence 9 samples, covering the Genome in a Bottle truth sets on multiple instruments (NovaSeq, HiSeqX, HiSeq4000, PacBio Sequel II System) and sample preparations (PCR-Free, PCR-Positive) for both whole genome and multiple exome kits. We benchmark pipelines, quantifying strengths and limitations for sequencing and analysis methods. We identify variability within and between instruments, preparation methods, and analytical pipelines, across various sequencing depths. We discuss the relevance of this variability to downstream analyses, and strategies to reduce variability.

Matching journals

The top 3 journals account for 50% of the predicted probability mass.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
