SNVer: a statistical tool for variant calling in analysis of pooled or individual next-generation sequencing data

We develop a statistical tool SNVer for calling common and rare variants in analysis of pooled or individual next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. We formulate variant calling as a hypothesis testing problem and employ a binomial–binomial model to test the significance of observed allele frequency...
