The genomic distribution of cleavage and polyadenylation (polyA) sites should be co-evolutionally optimized with the local gene structure. Otherwise, spurious polyadenylation can cause premature transcription termination and generate aberrant protein...
Large-scale population variant data is often used to filter and aid interpretation of variant calls in a single sample. These approaches do not incorporate population information directly into the process of variant calling, and are often limited to ...
Interpretation of noncoding genomic variants is one of the most important challenges in human genetics. Machine learning methods have emerged recently as a powerful tool to solve this problem. State-of-the-art approaches allow prediction of transcrip...
Structural variants (SVs) are a major driver of genetic diversity and disease in the human genome and their discovery is imperative to advances in precision medicine. Existing SV callers rely on hand-engineered features and heuristics to model SVs, w...
BACKGROUND: Structural variation (SV), which ranges from 50 bp to [Formula: see text] 3 Mb in size, is an important type of genetic variations. Deletion is a type of SV in which a part of a chromosome or a sequence of DNA is lost during DNA replicati...

The field of clinical genetics and genomics continues to evolve. In the past few decades, milestones like the initial sequencing of the human genome, dramatic changes in sequencing technologies, and the introduction of artificial intelligence, have u...
One way to better understand the structure in DNA is by learning to predict the sequence. Here, we trained a model to predict the missing base at any given position, given its left and right flanking contexts. Our best-performing model was a neural n...
Computational methods based on whole genome linked-reads and short-reads have been successful in genome assembly and detection of structural variants (SVs). Numerous variant callers that rely on linked-reads and short reads can detect genetic variati...
Accurate inference of population structure is important in many studies of population genetics. Here we present HaploNet, a method for performing dimensionality reduction and clustering of genetic data. The method is based on local clustering of phas...
Genomics is advancing towards data-driven science. Through the advent of high-throughput data generating technologies in human genomics, we are overwhelmed with the heap of genomic data. To extract knowledge and pattern out of this genomic data, arti...
