Overview

Datasets

DNase-sensitivity QTLs and chromatin-accessibility QTLs used in DART-Eval.

Metrics

Predicted allele scores are compared with observed effects; correlation analysis is restricted to variants with significant observed effects.

Allowed inputs

Reference/alternate DNA sequences at the evaluated variants.

Procedure, tasks and evaluated configurations

How it works

Evaluation methodology

DNase-sensitivity QTLs and chromatin-accessibility QTLs used in DART-Eval. The paper describes chromosome-separated pretraining partitions; evaluation is zero-shot variant scoring. Predicted allele scores are compared with observed effects; correlation analysis is restricted to variants with significant observed effects.

entity classification
review date: 2026-09-17; rationale: This source-scoped record identifies the biological prediction task and holds its paper context. Preserve the existing task identity; exact split, model adaptation and scoring remain in linked evaluations or separate protocol records.; source ids: arsenal-regulatory-dna-2026; source locator: Methods: Zero-Shot Variant Effect Prediction; Pretraining Data; cached text lines 50–52, 85–89; ambiguities: A paper- or suite-specific task may constrain some inputs or metrics; that alone does not make it interchangeable with a complete versioned protocol. No protocol equivalence is inferred.; Some legacy profile Entity type facts use the generic phrase computational evaluation protocol. That boilerplate is not sufficient to establish a single fixed protocol identity or to merge this task with another protocol record.
