  • Gene-specific prediction
    Patent number: 8744982
    Abstract: A gene-specific prediction tool for classifying and interpreting gene tests is described. The prediction tool includes a classifier trained and tested using databases of gene variants and their known phenotypes. The classifier uses differences between features of amino acids in obtaining attributes used to perform classification and generate predictions, including for benign and pathologic outcomes, for uncertain gene variants.
    Type: Grant

  • PREDICTING GENE VARIANT PATHOGENICITY
    Publication number: 20120310539
    Abstract: A computer-implemented, gene-specific prediction tool for classifying and interpreting gene tests is described. The prediction tool includes a predictor using a consensus framework. The predictor employs a weighted metric of existing and complementary prediction algorithms and calculated reference intervals of disease outcomes to calculate a consensus score used in interpreting gene tests.
