Predicting bacterial resistance from whole-genome sequences using k-mers and stability selection

Abstract Background Several studies demonstrated the feasibility of predicting bacterial antibiotic resistance phenotypes from whole-genome sequences, the prediction process usually amounting to detecting the presence of genes involved in antibiotic resistance mechanisms, or of specific mutations, p...
