Calculates the concordance between genotype data of one samples in each of two VCFs - one being considered the truth (or reference) the other being the call. The concordance is broken into separate results sections for SNPs and indels. Statistics are reported in three different files.
Summary
Calculates the concordance between genotype data of one samples in each of two VCFs - one being considered the truth (or reference) the other being the call. The concordance is broken into separate results sections for SNPs and indels. Summary and detailed statistics are reported.Details
This tool evaluates the concordance between genotype calls for a sample in different callsets where one is being considered as the "truth" (aka standard, or reference) and the other as the "call" that is being evaluated for accuracy. The Comparison can be restricted to a confidence interval which is typically used in order to enable proper assessment of False Positives and the False-Positive Rate (FPR).Usage example
Compare two VCFs within a confidence region

Overview
Summary
Calculates the concordance between genotype data of one sample in each of two VCFs - one being considered the truth (or reference) the other being the call. The concordance is broken into separate results sections for SNPs and indels. Satistics are reported in three different files.Details
This tool evaluates the concordance between genotype calls for a sample in different callsets where one is being considered as the \"truth\" (aka standard, or reference) and the other as the \"call\" that is being evaluated for accuracy. The Comparison can be restricted to a confidence interval which is typically used in order to enable proper assessment of False Positives and the False-Positive Rate (FPR).Usage example
Compare two VCFs within a confidence region
java -jar picard.jar GenotypeConcordance \\ CALL_VCF=input.vcf \\ CALL_SAMPLE=sample_name \\ O=gc_concordance.vcf \\ TRUTH_VCF=truth_set.vcf \\ TRUTH_SAMPLE=sample_in_truth \\ INTERVALS=confident.interval_list \\ MISSING_SITES_HOM_REF = true
Output Metrics:
Output metrics consists of GenotypeConcordanceContingencyMetrics, GenotypeConcordanceSummaryMetrics, and GenotypeConcordanceDetailMetrics. For each set of metrics, the data is broken into separate sections for SNPs and INDELs. Note that only SNP and INDEL variants are considered, MNP, Symbolic, and Mixed classes of variants are not included.- GenotypeConcordanceContingencyMetrics enumerate the constituents of each contingent in a callset including true-positive (TP), true-negative (TN), false-positive (FP), and false-negative (FN) calls.
- GenotypeConcordanceDetailMetrics include the numbers of SNPs and INDELs for each contingent genotype as well as the number of validated genotypes.
- GenotypeConcordanceSummaryMetrics provide specific details for the variant caller performance on a callset including values for sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive values.
Useful definitions applicable to alleles and genotypes:
- Truthset - A callset (typically in VCF format) containing variant calls and genotypes that have been cross-validated with multiple technologies e.g. Genome In A Bottle Consortium (GIAB) (https://sites.stanford.edu/abms/giab)
- TP - True-positives are variant sites that match against the truth-set
- FP - False-positives are reference sites miscalled as variant
- FN - False-negatives are variant sites miscalled as reference
- TN - True-negatives are correctly called as reference
- Validated genotypes - are TP sites where the exact genotype (HET or HOM-VAR) appears in the truth-set
VCF Output:
- The concordance state will be stored in the CONC_ST tag in the INFO field
- The truth sample name will be \"truth\" and call sample name will be \"call\"

Argument name(s) | Default value | Summary | |
---|---|---|---|
Required Arguments | |||
--CALL_VCF -CV |
null | The VCF containing the call sample | |
--OUTPUT -O |
null | Basename for the three metrics files that are to be written. Resulting files will be .genotype_concordance_summary_metrics, .genotype_concordance_detail_metrics, and .genotype_concordance_contingency_metrics. | |
--TRUTH_VCF -TV |
null | The VCF containing the truth sample | |
Optional Tool Arguments | |||
--arguments_file |
[] | read one or more arguments files and add them to the command line | |
--CALL_SAMPLE -CS |
null | The name of the call sample within the call VCF. Not required if only one sample exists. | |
--help -h |
false | display the help message | |
--IGNORE_FILTER_STATUS |
false | Default is false. If true, filter status of sites will be ignored so that we include filtered sites when calculating genotype concordance. | |
--INTERSECT_INTERVALS |
true | If true, multiple interval lists will be intersected. If false multiple lists will be unioned. | |
--INTERVALS |
[] | One or more interval list files that will be used to limit the genotype concordance. Note - if intervals are specified, the VCF files must be indexed. | |
--MIN_DP |
0 | Genotypes below this depth will have genotypes classified as LowDp. | |
--MIN_GQ |
0 | Genotypes below this genotype quality will have genotypes classified as LowGq. | |
--MISSING_SITES_HOM_REF -MISSING_HOM |
false | Default is false, which follows the GA4GH Scheme. If true, missing sites in the truth set will be treated as HOM_REF sites and sites missing in both the truth and call sets will be true negatives. Useful when hom ref sites are left out of the truth set. This flag can only be used with a high confidence interval list. | |
--OUTPUT_ALL_ROWS |
false | If true, output all rows in detailed statistics even when count == 0. When false only output rows with non-zero counts. | |

--TRUTH_SAMPLE -TS |
null | The name of the truth sample within the truth VCF. Not required if only one sample exists. | |

--MAX_RECORDS_IN_RAM |
500000 | When writing files that need to be sorted, this will specify the number of records stored in RAM before spilling to disk. Increasing this number reduces the number of file handles needed to sort the file, and increases the amount of RAM needed. | |

false | Whether to suppress job-summary info on System.err. | |
--REFERENCE_SEQUENCE -R |
null | Reference sequence file. | |
--TMP_DIR |
[] | One or more directories with space available to be used by this program for temporary storage of working files | |
