Somalier: rapid relatedness estimation for cancer and germline studies using efficient genome sketches
Abstract Background When interpreting sequencing data from multiple spatial or longitudinal biopsies, detecting sample mix-ups is essential, yet more difficult than in studies of germline variation. In most genomic studies of tumors, genetic variation is detected through pairwise comparisons of the...
