Predicting loss-of-function impact of genetic mutations: a machine learning approach

The innovation of next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques has significantly reduced the price of genome sequencing, lowering barriers to future medical research; it is now feasible to apply genome sequencing to studies where it would have previously been cost-inefficient. Identifying damaging or pathogenic mutations in vast amounts of complex, high-dimensional genome sequencing data may be of particular interest to researchers. Thus, this paper's aims were to train machine learning models on the attributes of a genetic mutation to predict LoFtool scores …
