Web-based Tool Validation for Antimicrobial Resistance Prediction: An Empirical Comparative Analysis

Global public health is seriously threatened by Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), and there is an urgent need for quick and precise AMR diagnostic tools. The prevalence of novel Antibiotic Resistance Genes (ARGs) has increased substantially during the last decade, owing to the recent burden of microbial sequencing. The major problem is extracting vital information from the massive amounts of generated data. Even though there are many tools available to predict AMR, very few of them are accurate and can keep up with the unstoppable growth of data in the present. Here, we briefly examine a variety of AMR prediction tools that are available.
