TitlelcSimVCF
Short DescriptionSimulator for low-coverage whole-genome sequencing VCF/genotype-likelihood data.
Long DescriptionlcSimVCF uses high-coverage whole-genome sequencing VCFs to simulate low-coverage whole-genome sequencing genotype likelihood distributions, with a multivariate Gaussian mixture modeling approach.
