ILIAD: a suite of automated Snakemake workflows for processing genomic data for downstream applications.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Processing raw genomic data for downstream applications such as imputation, association studies, and modeling requires numerous third-party bioinformatics software tools. It is highly time-consuming and resource-intensive with computational demands and storage limitations that pose significant challenges that increase cost. The use of software tools independent of one another, in a disjointed stepwise fashion, increases the difficulty and sets forth higher error rates because of fragmented job executions in alignment, variant calling, and/or build conversion complications. As sequencing data availability grows, the ability for biologists to process it using stable, automated, and reproducible workflows is paramount as it significantly reduces the time to generate clean a
