摘要:
Embodiments for calling variations in a sample polynucleotide sequence compared to a reference polynucleotide sequence are provided. Aspects of the embodiments include executing an application on at least one computer that locates local areas in the reference polynucleotide sequence where a likelihood exists that one or more bases of the sample polynucleotide sequence are changed from corresponding bases in the reference polynucleotide sequence, where the likelihood is determined at least in part based on mapped mated reads of the sample polynucleotide sequence; generating at least one sequence hypothesis for each of the local areas, and optimizing the at least one sequence hypothesis for at least a portion of the local areas to find one or more optimized sequence hypotheses of high probability for the local areas; and analyzing the optimized sequence hypotheses to identify a series of variation calls in the sample polynucleotide sequence.
