kdkorthauer/MADGiC: Fits an empirical Bayesian hierarchical model to obtain posterior probabilities that each gene is a driver.

The model accounts for (1) frequency of mutation compared to a sophisticated background model that accounts for gene-specific factors in addition to mutation type and nucleotide context, (2) predicted functional impact (in the form of SIFT scores) of each specific change, and (3) oncogenic patterns in the position of mutations that have been deposited into the COSMIC (Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer) database.
