  • Publication number: 20210313012
    Abstract: Methods for analyzing omics data and using the omics data to determine genetic distances and/or difference scores among a plurality of biological samples to so further determine the homogeneity of a group having a plurality of biological samples and/or exclude an individual biological sample from a group of biological samples as an outlier are presented. In preferred methods, a plurality of local differential string sets among the plurality of sequence strings is generated using a plurality of local alignments. The local different string is an indicative of genetic difference between one sequence string and one of the rests of the sequence strings among the plurality of sequence strings. From the plurality of local differential string sets, a plurality of difference scores among the plurality of sequence strings can be determined.

  • Patent number: 10984890
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for generating synthetic genomic datasets and validating bioinformatic pipelines for genomic analysis are disclosed. In preferred embodiments, synthetic maternal and paternal datasets with known variants are used with matched normal synthetic datasets to validate various bioinformatic pipelines. Bioinformatic pipelines are evaluated using the synthetic datasets to assess design changes and improvements. Accuracy, PPV, specificity, sensitivity, reproducibility, and limit of detection of the pipelines in calling variants in synthetic datasets is reported.

  • Patent number: 10961586
    Abstract: Contemplated systems and methods allow for computational genomic analysis using paired-end sequence analysis and split read refinement to thereby identify high-confidence breakpoints associated with high copy numbers and orientation of rearrangements, which is then the basis for full reconstruction of double minutes (DM). In especially preferred aspects, the DM will also include an oncogene or tumor suppressor gene, and/or may be found in blood or blood derived fluids.
