Analytical Validity:
Help
The accuracy of SNV detection was assessed by comparison to the Complete Genomics gold standard variant set reported for HapMap sample NA19129 and to a high-confidence call sets generated from NA12878 and NA19240 at the McDonnell Genome Institute (Table 4). In all cases, positions queried are comprised of all exons …
