Pipeline options:
--only-error-correction runs only read error correction (without assembling)
--only-assembler        runs only assembling (without read error correction)
--careful               tries to reduce number of mismatches and short indels
--continue              continue run from the last available check-point
--restart-from  &lt;cp&gt;    restart run with updated options and from the specified check-point ('ec', 'as', 'k&lt;int&gt;', 'mc')
--disable-gzip-output   forces error correction not to compress the corrected reads
--disable-rr            disables repeat resolution stage of assembling

Advanced options:
--dataset       &lt;filename&gt;      file with dataset description in YAML format
-t/--threads    &lt;int&gt;           number of threads
                                [default: 16]
-m/--memory     &lt;int&gt;           RAM limit for SPAdes in Gb (terminates if exceeded)
                                [default: 250]
--tmp-dir       &lt;dirname&gt;       directory for temporary files
                                [default: &lt;output_dir&gt;/tmp]
-k              &lt;int,int,...&gt;   comma-separated list of k-mer sizes (must be odd and
                                less than 128) [default: 'auto']
--cov-cutoff    &lt;float&gt;         coverage cutoff value (a positive float number, or 'auto', or 'off') [default: 'off']
--phred-offset  &lt;33 or 64&gt;      PHRED quality offset in the input reads (33 or 64)
                                [default: auto-detect]
</code></pre></div><p>As you can see this is also a &ldquo;pipeline&rdquo; of tools that can be switched on or off. SPAdes takes quite a long time, so for the purposes of this practical, something like this may suffice:</p><div><pre><code>spades.py -t 4 <span>\</span>
          -m 32 <span>\</span>
          -k 31,51,71 <span>\</span>
          --only-assembler <span>\</span>
          -1 miseq.1.fastq -2 miseq.2.fastq <span>\</span>
          --nanopore minion.fastq <span>\</span>
          -o hybrid_assembly
</code></pre></div><p>In turn, these parameters mean</p><ul>
<li>use 4 threads</li>
<li>max memory is 32Gb</li>
<li>use 3 kmer values to build the de bruijn graph(s) - 31, 51 and 71</li>
<li>only run the assembler, not the correction algorithm (for speed)</li>
<li>read 1 and read 2 of the MiSeq data</li>
<li>the nanopore data</li>
<li>put the output in folder &ldquo;hybrid_assembly&rdquo;</li>
</ul>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[HALC: High throughput algorithm for long read error correction]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[HALC, a high throughput algorithm for long read error correction. HALC aligns the long reads to short read contigs from the same species with a relatively low identity requirement so that a long read region can be aligned to at least one contig region, including its true genome region’s repeats in the contigs sufficiently similar to it (similar repeat based alignment approach)

HALC was able to obtain 6.7-41.1% higher throughput than the existing algorithms while maintaining comparable accuracy. The HALC corrected long reads can thus result in 11.4-60.7% longer assembled contigs than the existing algorithms.<p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/lanl001/halc" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/lanl001/halc</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Deepbinner: a signal-level demultiplexer for Oxford Nanopore reads]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Deepbinner is a tool for demultiplexing barcoded&nbsp;<a href="https://nanoporetech.com/">Oxford Nanopore</a>&nbsp;sequencing reads. It does this with a deep&nbsp;<a href="https://adeshpande3.github.io/adeshpande3.github.io/A-Beginner's-Guide-To-Understanding-Convolutional-Neural-Networks/">convolutional neural network</a>&nbsp;classifier, using many of the&nbsp;<a href="https://towardsdatascience.com/neural-network-architectures-156e5bad51ba">architectural advances</a>&nbsp;that have proven successful in image classification. Unlike other demultiplexers (e.g. Albacore and&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/rrwick/Porechop">Porechop</a>), Deepbinner identifies barcodes from the raw signal (a.k.a. squiggle) which gives it greater sensitivity and fewer unclassified reads.</p>
<ul>
<li><span>Reasons to use Deepbinner</span>:
<ul>
<li>To minimise the number of unclassified reads (use Deepbinner by itself).</li>
<li>To minimise the number of misclassified reads (use Deepbinner in conjunction with Albacore demultiplexing).</li>
<li>You plan on running signal-level downstream analyses, like&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/jts/nanopolish">Nanopolish</a>. Deepbinner can&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/rrwick/Deepbinner#using-deepbinner-before-basecalling">demultiplex the fast5 files</a>which makes this easier.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span>Reasons to&nbsp;<em>not</em>&nbsp;use Deepbinner</span>:
<ul>
<li>You only have basecalled reads not the raw fast5 files (which Deepbinner requires).</li>
<li>You have a small/slow computer. Deepbinner is more computationally intensive than&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/rrwick/Porechop">Porechop</a>.</li>
<li>You used a sequencing/barcoding kit other than&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/rrwick/Deepbinner/blob/master/models">the ones Deepbinner was trained on</a>.</li>
