Description

Apply a score cutoff to filter variants based on a recalibration table. Sentieon’s Aplyvarcal performs the second pass in a two-stage process called Variant Quality Score Recalibration (VQSR). Specifically, it applies filtering to the input variants based on the recalibration table produced in the previous step VarCal and a target sensitivity value. https://support.sentieon.com/manual/usages/general/#applyvarcal-algorithm

Input

*.recal

recal_index (file)

Index file for the recalibration file.

.recal.idx

tranches (file)

Tranches file produced when the input vcf was run through VariantRecalibrator in stage 1.
