BAM-matcher

Description

bam-matcher website  

A simple tool for determining whether two BAM files contain reads sequenced from the same sample or patient by counting genotype matches at common SNPs.

BAM-matcher is most useful at comparing whole-genome-sequencing (WGS), whole-exome-sequencing (WES) and RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) human data, but can also be customised to compare panel data or non-human data.
