CHM-eval, aka Syndip, is a benchmark dataset for evaluating the accuracy of small variant callers. It is constructed from the PacBio assembilies of two independent CHM cell lines using procedures largely orthogonal to the methodology used for short-read variant calling, which makes it more comprehensive and less biased in comparison to existing benchmark datasets. The following figure briefly explains how this dataset was generated:
The truth data can be downloaded from the release page. The package contains the list of confident regions, phased variant calls including thousands of long insertions/deletions, and evaluation scripts (see below). Illumina short reads sequenced from the two cell lines and from the experimental mixture of the two cell lines are availble via project PRJEB13208 at ENA.
