kover¶

Description¶

Kover is an out-of-core implementation of rule-based machine learning algorithms that has been tailored for genomic biomarker discovery. It produces highly interpretable models, based on k-mers, that explicitly highlight genotype-to-phenotype associations.

Environment Modules¶

Run module spider kover to find out what environment modules are available for this application.

Environment Variables¶

HPC_KOVER_DIR - installation directory
HPC_KOVER_BIN - executable directory
