Methods, computer systems, and computer readable medium for testing a plurality of models in order to classify a biological specimen are provided. A determination is made as to whether a model precondition for a model has been satisfied. The model is skipped when the model precondition has not been satisfied. When the model precondition has been satisfied, the calculations in the model are computed. Each calculation is computed using biological specimen cellular constituent abundances in accordance with a calculation algorithm in the model. The computed calculations are aggregated in accordance with an aggregation algorithm in the model. At least one other model in the plurality of models is tested in this way. The invention also provides a computer medium storing a classifier that classifies a biological specimen into a biological sample class. The classifier includes models that each comprise (i) an optional model precondition, (ii) a calculation algorithm, (iii) a plurality of calculations, and (iv) a calculation aggregation algorithm. |
