+  Build a recalibration model to score variant quality for filtering purposes.
+  It is highly recommended to follow GATK best practices when using this module,
+  the gaussian mixture model requires a large number of samples to be used for the
+  tool to produce optimal results. For example, 30 samples for exome data. For more details see
