SPLINTER
:: DESCRIPTION
SPLINTER (Short IN/DEL Prediction by Large deviation Inference and Non-linear True frequency Estimation by Recursion) is a software which detects and quantifies short IN/DELs as well as single nucleotide substitutions in pooled-DNA samples. SPLINTER can accurately detect rare variants in large pools, providing a novel and sensitive method that will allow for significant progress in the discovery of novel disease-causing rare variants from DNA pools of affected individuals, such as germ-line mutation discovery for breast and ovarian cancer patients.
