About
DeepVariant is an advanced analysis pipeline developed by Google that leverages deep neural networks to identify genetic variants from next-generation DNA sequencing data. It functions by taking aligned reads, generating pileup image tensors, classifying each tensor using a convolutional neural network, and then reporting the results in standard VCF or gVCF files. The tool is highly accurate, having won multiple PrecisionFDA Truth Challenges, and maintains this accuracy across diverse sequencing technologies, prep methods, and species. DeepVariant is flexible, supporting PCR-positive samples and low-quality sequencing runs, and can be adapted for non-human species. It is also cost-effective and offers various usage options, including Docker, binaries, and support for hardware accelerators like GPUs and TPUs. DeepTrio, a related tool, extends DeepVariant's capabilities for trio variant calling.
