Why novoAlign
novoAlign+GATK pipeline scores a higher AUC value, higher recall, and higher precision than BWA+GATK
High AUC for SNPs
ROC-like PR curves from hap.py results comparing GIAB benchmark SNPs with Novoalign+GATK and BWA+GATK pipeline SNPs. The graph focuses on high-quality SNPs, and the AUC value is calculated using the “bayestestR” library in R.
High AUC for INDELs
ROC-like PR curves from hap.py results comparing GIAB benchmark INDELS with Novoalign+GATK and BWA+GATK pipeline INDELs. The graph focuses on high-quality INDELs, and the AUC value is calculated using the “bayestestR” library in R.
