	<title><![CDATA[KAD: Assessing genome assemblies using K-mer copies in assemblies and K-mer abundance in Illumina reads]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>KAD is designed for evaluating the accuracy of nucleotide base quality of genome assemblies. Briefly, abundance of k-mers are quantified for both sequencing reads and assembly sequences. Comparison of the two values results in a single value per k-mer, K-mer Abundance Difference (KAD), which indicates how well the assembly matches read data for each k-mer.</p>

<p>where,&nbsp;<em>c</em>&nbsp;is the count of a k-mer from reads,&nbsp;<em>m</em>&nbsp;is the mode of counts of read k-mers, and&nbsp;<em>n</em>&nbsp;is the copy of the k-mer in the assembly.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/liu3zhenlab/KAD" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/liu3zhenlab/KAD</a></p>]]></description>
