Release of DeepVariant and DeepSomatic v1.9
DV: Now train on HG002 T2T-Q100. Error reduction of 12% for Illumina and 30% for PacBio on this truth set. 25% faster. DeepTrio is 5x faster (20h -> 4h).
DS: New models FFPE_TUMOR_ONLY for {WGS, WES}. Much improved WGS models.

You have some additional control on memory use by the number of threads you run with.
For running on GPU, I am not sure if you've seen this - github.com/google/deepv...
Which requires a little more configuration, but can let you better manage CPU-GPU tradeoffs. Definitely expert use.

Hi Eric, sorry to not notice till now. From the DV FAQ, we see the Keras model takes 16GB of memory (github.com/google/deepv...).
It's possible that pangenome-aware models will take more memory, and we do observe more memory per thread used for that. Definitely not lower than 16GB.

Great question. We were talking recently about L40S benchmarks. We don't have that data immediately on hand, but are planning to generate runtime stats for it.

They're very close - to the point that small changes of coverage or the inclusion of PCR in preparation would tip between one and the other.

Plots of SNP and Indel error numbers for DeepVariant models. Shows a Indel error reduction of 26% for PacBio and a ~50% SNP error reduction for ONT.
Added SPRQ to PacBio training, reducing Indel error on SPRQ by 26%. Added Platinum Pedigree training data for PacBio model, reducing errors by 34% on more extensive Platinum truth. New model and case study for Kinnex/Mas-Seq/Iso-Seq. Additional speed options for GPU pipelines 2/3

Release of DeepVariant 1.8. Large speed improvement (~67% faster) via small model for easy sites. New Pangenome-aware option. Reduces error by ~30% for vg-mapped WGS, ~10% for BWA WGS, ~5% BWA exome. New config for custom model users, see release notes.

For now, these are stand alone models. We'll likely consider whether we can jointly include these in the broad WGS model later.

The changes to DeepTrio for de novo detection are substantial. We now in two steps - first for overall accuracy and then a weighted fine tuning for de novos. Our benchmarks show large improvements in de novo calling relative to the prior DeepTrio.
