Tiivistelmä	Bayesian variant calling is a computational pipeline that uses probabilistic inference to identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), insertions, and deletions in a genome by treating sequencing data as evidence and computing posterior probabilities over candidate genotypes. Unlike deterministic threshold-based callers, Bayesian approaches explicitly model sequencing error, mapping uncertainty, and prior genotype frequencies to produce calibrated genotype likelihoods that can be used for downstream filtering and association testing.	Variant calling is the computational process of identifying positions in a sequenced genome that differ from a reference sequence — including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), small insertions and deletions (indels), and structural variants. It transforms aligned sequencing reads into an interpretable catalogue of genetic differences, forming the foundation for population genetics, disease-gene discovery, and clinical genomics applications.
