Sequence Analysis Tools

We are developing software tools for the analysis of next generation sequence data.

These tools include:

  1. Variant Calling with GlfSingle and GlfMultiples
  2. Variant Calling and De Novo Mutation Detection in Families with Polymutt
  3. Variant Annotations using VcfCodingSnps
  4. Rare Variant Analysis using RvTests
  5. Rare Variant Association Analysis in family samples FamRvTest
  6. Quality control using FastQValidator, VerifyBamID, and BamValidator
  7. C++ APIs for sequence analsysis using C++ Library: libStatGen
  8. Meta-analysis of single variant or gene-level associations RAREMETAL-SOFTWARE
  9. Sequencing study design helper Rarefy
  10. Local ancestry inference (ancestry painting) using off-targeted sequence data SEQMIX
  11. Association Container Toolbox EPACTS
  12. Fast Genotype Imputation Tool : Minimac3

These tools and additional tools can be found on the Software page.

We are developing Genome/Sequencing Processing Pipelines for anyone to use: GotCloud
