Authors
Varlociraptor is a collaborative project. In the following, we provide a detailed summary of the contributions.
Model
An initial publication focusing on somatic variant calling:
Johannes Köster, Louis Dijkstra, Tobias Marschall, Alexander Schönhuth. Varlociraptor: enhancing sensitivity and controlling false discovery rate in somatic indel discovery. Genome Biology 21, 2020
Initial implementation
- Johannes Köster (framework, software architecture, model, tumor-normal variant calling, generic variant calling, filtration, CNV calling)
- David Lähnemann (single cell variant calling, FDR on Event sets)
- Louis Dijkstra (prototyping)
Maintenance and further development
