GenTB: A user-friendly genome-based predictor for tuberculosis resistance powered by machine learning
Abstract Background Multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a significant global public health threat. Genotypic resistance prediction from Mtb DNA sequences offers an alternative to laboratory-based drug-susceptibility testing. User-friendly and accurate resistance prediction tools...
