Methods and evaluation design

Procedure, tasks and evaluated configurations

Recorded evaluations

Each evaluation records what was tested and under which conditions.

Baseline coverage

Reference methods help show what a model adds beyond simple controls. We track a null control and a conventional method for each protocol.

0 of 2 active baseline roles have published Rewire measurements in this release. Measurements on a selected protocol do not establish coverage of an entire suite.

No execution recipe linked to this protocol. Recipe availability does not establish a completed evaluation.

Author-reported evaluations: 3
External evaluations: 3

Literature evidence is not a Rewire measurement. Executed but unpublished runs and private review status are not included.

Null control

Proposed control: requires review

Select a task-valid null control after reviewing inputs and metric

Protocol-specific applicability, permitted inputs, access, split, evaluator and execution requirements need review before implementation or execution.

This is a suggested selection rule, not a validated method or a measured score.

Conventional reference

Proposed control: requires review

Select an upstream conventional reference after reviewing the full protocol

Protocol-specific applicability, permitted inputs, access, split, evaluator and execution requirements need review before implementation or execution.

This is a suggested selection rule, not a validated method or a measured score.

Coverage is derived from release 2026-10-22-1b7cf027e4f6. Source citations describe the original records; they do not validate an unreviewed baseline proposal. No results have been generated by this audit.

Run instructions

No runnable recipe has been reviewed for this protocol. Dataset access, model requirements, licences and compute requirements must be checked against its sources before execution.

Strengths, limitations and unresolved questions

Evidence

Source checking verifies the cited claim or transcription. It does not establish independent reproduction.

Evidence table

Inspect claims, sources and review details

Trace each statement to its source and review. A context-only reference supports the record generally; it does not verify an individual field. Source checking does not reproduce an experiment.

One row per statement and cited source. Multiple citations are not independent evaluations. Shared locators are labelled explicitly.

Technical metadata and extraction receipts

Stable ID: somatic-hg008-20261011-protocol-primary-overall

areas: dna-genomes
contexts: clinical_research
protocol: Tumour-normal calling with each caller; PASS calls restricted, split, left-normalised and deduplicated (bcftools 1.20); exact CHROM/POS/REF/ALT match to the truth VCF within the benchmark region. Precision TP/(TP+FP), recall TP/(TP+FN), F1 their harmonic mean. Ensembles: union (at least one caller), majority (at least two), strict intersection (all three).
version: Zenodo v1.0.0 tables/Table1_HG008_primary_metrics.tsv
metric: f1-score
denominator: 14014
limitations: Single-author preprint, not peer reviewed; the author founded AmbioSpire LLC, under which the study was run.; One cell-line tumour-normal pair (HG008) and a draft truth set (HG008-T v0.3, clonal/truncal variants only).; Matching is exact CHROM/POS/REF/ALT after normalisation; no representation-aware comparison, so complex indels may count as errors.; The author does not establish that DeepSomatic's bundled WGS model was trained independently of HCC1395/SEQC2; HG008 itself is described as external to the study's development.; Exact caller command lines and runtime flags were not retained; versions and container digests are.; Union, majority and strict intersection are the author's ensembles (author_reported); the individual callers were run, not developed, by the author.; The original scoring and bootstrap code was not retained; the author reports that a later internal reimplementation reproduced the numbers. No external replication.; Whether DeepSomatic 1.10.0's bundled WGS model was trained with HG008 data is stated neither in the source nor in the DeepSomatic README, metrics page and WGS case study (github.com/google/deepsomatic, commit 09d605a966e5dcb10361cd036e05cb79d21b0062, checked 2026-10-11); the DeepSomatic paper was not checked.; Intervals are 95% block-bootstrap percentile intervals over 5-Mb genomic blocks (10,000 replicates); they describe spatial variation within this benchmark, not between tumours.; The primary region (nogermlineinterference) holds 14,014 of the 18,207 truth variants in the full benchmark; the rest are sites with germline interference. Over the full benchmark (Table 4) overall F1 is 0.70 to 0.79 rather than 0.78 to 0.91, and in the germline-interference stratum DeepSomatic F1 is 0.0528 (Results).
