Predictive computational phenotyping and biomarker discovery using reference-free genome comparisons

BACKGROUND: The identification of genomic biomarkers is a key step towards improving diagnostic tests and therapies. We present a reference-free method for this task that relies on a k-mer representation of genomes and a machine learning algorithm that produces intelligible models. The method is com...
