Breakout:

Breakout is a novel structural variation analysis detection package using large insert mate pair data.
Improvements over similar software packages include:

  • inherent ability for exploiting multi-core parallelism
  • superior sensitivity and specificity for the detection of the somatic variants with low read coverage

Obtaining Breakout:

Breakout software is available for download.
