Abstract
Using whole-exome sequencing (WES) for the detection of chromosomal aberrations from tumor samples has become increasingly popular, as it is cost-effective and time efficient. However, factors which present in WES tumor samples, including diversity in exon size, batch effect and tumor impurity, can complicate the identification of somatic mutation in each region of the exon. To address these issues, the authors of the present study have developed a novel method, PECNV, for the detection of genomic copy number variants and loss of heterozygosity in WES datasets. PECNV combines normalized logarithm ratio of read counts (Log Ratio) and B allele frequency (BAF), and then employs expectation maximization (EM) algorithm to estimate parameters involved in the models. A comprehensive assessment of PECNV of PECNV was performed by analyzing simulated datasets contaminated with different normal cell proportion and eight real primary triple-negative breast cancer samples. PECNV demonstrated superior results compared with ExomeCNV and EXCAVATOR for the detection of genomic aberrations in WES data.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
