ClairS is a somatic variant caller designed for paired samples and primarily ONT long-read. It uses Clair3 to eliminate germline variants. It ensembles the pileup and full-alignment models in Clair3, trusts them equally, and decides on the result using a set of rules and post-processing filters. With 50-fold HCC1395 (tumor) and 25-fold HCC1395BL (normal) of ONT R10.4.1 data, benchmarking against the truth SNVs (Fang et al., 2021), ClairS achieved 86.86%/93.01% recall/precision rate for SNVs when targeting VAF ≥0.05. For variants with VAF ≥0.2, the numbers go up to 94.65%/96.63%. Detailed performance figures are shown below.
ClairS means Clair-Somatic, or the masculine plural of "Clair" in french (thus, 's' is silent).
The logo of ClairS was generated using DALL-E 2 with prompt "A DNA sequence with genetic variant that looks like a letter 'S'".
A preprint describing ClairS's algorithms and results is at bioRxiv.
For germline variant calling using DNA-seq sample, please try Clair3.
For germline variant calling using long-read RNA-seq sample, please try Clair3-RNA.
For somatic variant calling using tumor only sample, please try ClairS-TO.
The latest performance figures as of Oct 10th, 2024 (ClairS v0.4.0) is available in this technical note.

v0.4.1 (Nov 29) : Added ssrs model for PacBio Revio (hifi_revio_ssrs) and illumina (ilmn_ssrs) platforms.
v0.4.0 (Oct 11) : This version is a major update. The new features and benchmarks are explained in a technical note titled “Improving the performance of ClairS and ClairS-TO with new real cancer cell-line datasets and PoN”. A summary of changes: 1. Starting from this version, ClairS will provide two model types. ssrs is a model trained initially with synthetic samples and then real samples augmented (e.g., ont_r10_dorado_sup_5khz_ssrs), ss is a model trained from synthetic samples (e.g., ont_r10_dorado_sup_5khz_ss). The ssrs model provides better performance and fits most usage scenarios. ss model can be used when missing a cancer-type in model training is a concern. In v0.4.0, four real cancer cell-line datasets (HCC1937/BL, HCC1954/BL, H1437/BL, and H2009/BL) covering two cancer types (breast cancer, lung cancer) published by Park et al. were used for ssrs model training. 2. Added BQ jittering in model training to address the BQ distribution difference between the training and calling datasets that leads to performance drop. 3. Added the --indel_min_af option and adjusted the default minimum allelic fraction requirement to 0.1 for Indels in ONT platform.
v0.3.1 (Aug 16) : 1. Added four options i. --use_heterozygous_snp_in_tumor_sample_and_normal_bam_for_intermediate_phasing, ii. --use_heterozygous_snp_in_normal_sample_and_normal_bam_for_intermediate_phasing, iii. --use_heterozygous_snp_in_tumor_sample_and_tumor_bam_for_intermediate_phasing, and iv. --use_heterozygous_snp_in_normal_sample_and_tumor_bam_for_intermediate_phasing. iii is equivalent to --use_heterozygous_snp_in_tumor_sample_for_intermediate_phasing added in v0.2.0. iv is equivalent to --use_heterozygous_snp_in_normal_sample_for_intermediate_phasing added in v0.2.0. Use normal bam for intermediate phasing was a request from @Sergey Aganezov. When the coverage of normal and tumor are similar, using normal bam for intermediate phasing has negligible difference from using tumor bam in our experiments using HCC1395/BL. 2. Added --haplotagged_tumor_bam_provided_so_skip_intermediate_phasing_and_haplotagging to use the haplotype information provided in the tumor bam directly and skip intermediate phasing and haplotagging. This option is useful when using ClairS in a pipeline in which the phasing of the tumor bam is done before running ClairS. BAM haplotagged by WhatsHap and LongPhase are accepted. 3. Bumped up Clair3 dependency to version 1.0.10, LongPhase to version 1.7.3.
v0.3.0 (Jul 5) : 1. Added a module called “verdict” (Option --enable_verdict) to statistically classify a called variant into either a germline, somatic, or subclonal somatic variant based on the CNV profile and tumor purity estimation. Please find out more technical details about the Verdict module here. 2. Improved model training speed, reduced model training time cost by about three times.
v0.2.0 (Apr 29) : 1. Added --use_heterozygous_snp_in_normal_sample_for_intermediate_phasing/--use_heterozygous_snp_in_tumor_sample_for_intermediate_phasing option to support using either heterozygous SNPs in the normal sample or tumor sample for intermediate phasing. The previous versions used in_tumor_sample for phasing. In this new version, when testing with ONT 4kkz HCC1395/BL and using in_normal_sample for intermediate phasing, the SNV precision improved ~2%, while recall remained unchanged. in_normal_sample becomes the default from this version. However, if the coverage of normal sample is low, please consider switching back to using in_tumor_sample (#22, idea contributed by the longphase team @sloth-eat-pudding). 2. Added --use_heterozygous_indel_for_intermediate_phasing to include high quality heterozygous Indels for intermediate phasing. With this new option, the haplotagged tumor reads increased by ~3% in ONT 4khz HCC1395/BL, the option becomes default from this version. 3. Added a model that might provide a slightly better performance for liquid tumor. In this release, only ONT Dorado 5khz HAC for liquid tumor (-p ont_r10_dorado_hac_5khz_liquid) is provided. The model was trained with slightly higher normal contamination. We are testing out the new model with collaborator. 4. Added --use_longphase_for_intermediate_haplotagging option to replace WhatsHap haplotagging by LongPhase haplotagging to speed up read haplotagging process, the option becomes default from this version. 5. Bumped up Clair3 dependency to version 1.0.7, LongPhase to version 1.7.
v0.1.7 (Jan 25, 2024) : 1. Added ONT Dorado 5khz HAC (-p ont_r10_dorado_hac_5khz) and Dorado 4khz HAC (-p ont_r10_dorado_hac_4khz) model, renamed all ONT Dorado SUP model, check here for more details. 2. Enabled somatic variant calling in sex chromosomes. 3. Added FAU, FCU, FGU, FTU, RAU, RCU, RGU, and RTU tags.
v0.1.6 (Sep 18) : 1. Fixed an output bug that caused no VCF output if no Indel candidate was found (contributor @Khi Pin). 2. Fixed showing incorrect reference allele depth at a deletion region. 3. Added PacBio HiFi quick demo.
v0.1.5 (Aug 2) : 1. Updated SNV calling using ONT Dorado 4kHz data with a new model trained using multiple-sample pairs (HG003/4); 2. Updated SNV calling using ONT Dorado 5kHz data with a new model trained using multiple-sample pairs (HG001/HG002, HG003/4); 3. Support somatic indel calling using ONT Dorado 4kHz data. 4. Support somatic indel calling using ONT Dorado 5kHz data.
v0.1.4 (Jul 15) : 1. Added reference depth in AD tag. 2. Added HiFi Sequel II Indel model.
v0.1.3 (Jul 5) : Added ONT Dorado 4khz (-p ont_r10_dorado_4khz) and 5khz (-p ont_r10_dorado_5khz) models, check here for more details. Renamed platform options ont_r10 to ont_r10_guppy and ont_r9 to ont_r9_guppy.
v0.1.2 (May 17) : Added HiFi Revio model, renamed HiFi Sequel II model from hifi to hifi_sequel2.
v0.1.1 (Apr 30) : 1. Added the "command line used" to VCF header. 2. Added NAU, NCU, NGU, and NTU tags (#reads supporting the four bases in normal) to the output. 3. Hybrid calling mode now outputs three VCFs, ClairS somatic variant calls, Clair3 normal germline variant calls, and Clair3 tumor germline variant calls. 4. Added the --enable_clair3_germline_output option to also output Clair3 normal germline variant calls, and Clair3 tumor germline variant calls (even when hybrid calling more is not enabled). Running time will increase by ~40%.
v0.1.0 (Mar 24) : 1. Added support for Indel calling. ClairS Indel calling currently only supports ONT R10 data. To enable, use the --enable_indel_calling option. The Indel F1-score is ~73% with 50x/50x HCC1395/BL data. 2. Added an experimental --normal_vcf_fn to skip germline variant calling on normal BAM (#7, contributor @Xingyao). 3. Added --hybrid_mode_vcf_fn option to enable hybrid calling mode that combines de novo calling results and genotyping results without running the tool twice. Renamed the --vcf_fn to --genotyping_mode_vcf_fn for clarification. 4. Fixed a memory issue, memory consumption is now sub 100G for high coverage samples. 5. Fixed a conda environment issue in Singularity (#3). 6. Fixed zero division when no SNV was found (#2, #5). 7. Added AD tag in the output.

Caveats 1: Starting from v0.4.0 version, ClairS will provide two model types. ssrs is a model trained initially with synthetic samples and then real samples augmented (e.g., ont_r10_dorado_sup_5khz_ssrs), ss is a model trained from synthetic samples (e.g., ont_r10_dorado_sup_5khz_ss). The ssrs model provides better performance and fits most usage scenarios. ss model can be used when missing a cancer-type in model training is a concern. In v0.4.0, four real cancer cell-line datasets (HCC1937, HCC1954, H1437, and H2009) covering two cancer types (breast cancer, lung cancer) published by Park et al. were used for ssrs model training.
Caveats 2: Although the r9(r941_prom_sup_g5014) model was trained on synthetic samples with r9.4.1 real data, the minimal AF cutoff, minimal coverage, and post-calling filtering parameters for the r9 model are copied from the r10 model, and are not optimized due to lack of real r9 data on a cancer sample with known truths.
Caveats 3: The PacBio HiFi Sequel II model is experimental. It was trained but not tested with any real data with known truths. HG003 54x and HG004 52x were used, thus tumor depth coverage higher than 50x may suffer from lower recall rate. For testing, please downsample both tumor and normal to ~40x for the best performance of this experimental model.
