GSR: Simulator - Mitty

AttributeValue
TitleMitty
Short DescriptionGenome/read simulator and debugging toolkit for aligners and variant callers.
Long DescriptionMitty generates reads from genomes or regions, handles ploidy from VCF genotypes, supports tumor/normal and contamination mixes, adds sequencing errors, creates perfect-aligner BAM truth output, and can simulate VCFs with SNPs and indels for aligner/caller testing.
Keywordsgenomics; read simulation; variant calling; aligner debugging; VCF; tumor-normal
