Multiplexed assays of variant effect (MAVE) experimentally measure the fitness of large numbers of sequence variants by selective enrichment of sequences with desirable properties followed by quantification by sequencing. mutscan is an R package for flexible analysis of such experiments, covering the entire workflow from raw reads up to statistical analysis and visualization. Core components are implemented in C++ for efficiency. Various experimental designs are supported, including single or paired reads with optional unique molecular identifiers. To find variants with changed relative abundance, mutscan employs established statistical models provided in the edgeR and limma packages. mutscan is available from https://github.com/fmicompbio/mutscan.

"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.
