The document describes a study using explainable boosting machines (EBMs) to model variant calling accuracy as a function of genomic context. The goals are to understand sequencing errors to enable more precise benchmarking and to predict which variant types and contexts a variant caller may miss. The EBMs are trained on true and false variant calls compared to ground truth data. The models show genomic features like homopolymer length that increase the likelihood of incorrect variant calling between PCR-free and PCR-plus sequencing. The models also predict variants likely to be missed in comparisons between variant calling pipelines and the ground truth data.
