JumboDB: tool for de Bruijn graph construction

BioStar — Tue, 17 Aug 2021 13:33:46 -0500

jumboDB tool for fast de Bruijn graph construction from long sequences (reads or genomes) with very low error rate. JumboDB is not a genome assembler by itself but rather a subroutine that translates a set of reads into compressed de Bruijn graph.

AlfaPang: alignment free algorithm for pangenome graph construction

BioStar — Thu, 28 Aug 2025 02:56:35 -0500

AlfaPang constructs variation graphs, leveraging its alignment-free and reference-free approach, based solely on intrinsic sequence properties. This design allows AlfaPang's runtime and memory usage to scale linearly with the size of input sequences, enabling it to handle significantly larger genome sets compared to other methods.

d3Network:Tools for creating D3 JavaScript network, tree, dendrogram, and Sankey graphs from R.

Jit — Fri, 06 Apr 2018 12:10:45 -0500

Mike Bostock’s D3.js is great for creating interactive network graphs with JavaScript. The d3Network package makes it easy to create these network graphs from R. The main idea is that you should able to take an R data frame with information about the relationships between members of a network and create full network graphs with one command.
