Quantifying unobserved protein-coding variants in human populations provides a roadmap for large-scale sequencing projects

As new proposals aim to sequence ever larger collection of humans, it is critical to have a quantitative framework to evaluate the statistical power of these projects. We developed a new algorithm, UnseenEst, and applied it to the exomes of 60,706 individuals to estimate the frequency distribution o...
