  1. The analyzed dataset had 86 samples with at least one known full-mutation allele. The number of true-positives detected by the tools, sensitivity, and the number of false positives identified in our default analysis of the Isaac- (top panel) and BWA-aligned (bottom panel) genomes are shown. NL normal, FM full-mutation, FPs false-positives, rpts repeats, EH_v2 ExpansionHunter version 2, EH_v3 ExpansionHunter version 3, TRED TREDPARSE
