Jan 1, 2025Monthly summary for 2025-01 - hartwigmedical/hmftools Key features delivered - Sage Tool Realignment Index Offset Handling: Realignment offset-aware checks added to Sage tool; validates low-quality indices with and without offset; added testRealignmentIndexOffset to cover insertions and read sequence variations. Commit a10f44d513976db8bbbb9a3fd3519c1e2df859ec. Major bugs fixed - Base Quality Recalibration: Cap BQR error probability at 1.0 to prevent overestimation of error rates; commit ee0ee9508e11d0b3505023f5a4a0c36010a99d3d. Overall impact and accomplishments - Increased reliability and accuracy of quality checks in Sage Tool; improved robustness for offset scenarios; enhanced test coverage reduces risk of regression in downstream analyses, supporting more trustworthy variant calling and downstream decision-making. Technologies/skills demonstrated - Proficiency in numerical safety (clamping to 1.0), test-driven development, edge-case testing, and clear commit-based traceability; demonstrated ability to translate quality improvements into business value by reducing risk and improving data integrity.
