“… 1 , 4 , 5 For example, a number of computational methods have been developed to facilitate phenotype-based prioritization of disease variants and genes, 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 and some methods also enable the prediction of Mendelian diseases directly from phenotype information. 13 , 14 , 15 To facilitate computational phenotype analysis, the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) was established, which provides a standardized vocabulary to describe phenotypic abnormalities in human diseases. 16 The current release of HPO (June 2022) covers 13,000 terms and over 156,000 annotations on hereditary diseases.…”
