	<title><![CDATA[My commonly used commands in Bioinformatics]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>FYI, I've found it useful to use MUMmer to extract the specific changes that Racon makes, so I can evaluate them individually:</p><pre><code>minimap -t 24 assembly.fasta long_reads.fastq.gz | racon -t 24 long_reads.fastq.gz - assembly.fasta racon_assembly.fasta
nucmer -p nucmer assembly.fasta racon_assembly.fasta
show-snps -C -T -r nucmer.delta
</code></pre><p>This reports Racon's changes in a table. You can exclude indels with the&nbsp;<code>-I</code>&nbsp;option in&nbsp;<code>show-snps</code>.&nbsp;</p><p>This process (Racon -&gt; MUMmer -&gt; SNP table) solves the problem I originally raised in this issue. So as far as I'm concerned, you can close this issue (or keep it open if you still want to implement some kind of variant table).</p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Referee: Genome assembly quality scores]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Modern genome sequencing technologies provide a succint measure of quality at each position in every read, however all of this information is lost in the assembly process. Referee summarizes the quality information from the reads that map to a site in an assembled genome to calculate a quality score for each position in the genome assembly.</p>
<p>We accomplish this by first calculating genotype likelihoods for every site. For a given site in a diploid genome, there are 10 possible genotypes (AA, AC, AG, AT, CC, CG, CT, GG, GT, TT). Referee takes as input the genotype likelihoods calculated for all 10 genotypes given the called reference base at each position.</p>
<h3>Referee is a program to calculate a quality score for every position in a genome assembly. This allows for easy filtering of low quality sites for any downstream analysis.</h3>

	<title><![CDATA[Shasta long read assembler]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The goal of the Shasta long read assembler is to rapidly produce accurate assembled sequence using as input DNA reads generated by&nbsp;<a href="https://nanoporetech.com/">Oxford Nanopore</a>&nbsp;flow cells.</p>
<p>Computational methods used by the Shasta assembler include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Using a&nbsp;<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-length_encoding">run-length</a>&nbsp;representation of the read sequence. This makes the assembly process more resilient to errors in homopolymer repeat counts, which are the most common type of errors in Oxford Nanopore reads.</li>
<li>Using in some phases of the computation a representation of the read sequence based on&nbsp;<em>markers</em>, a fixed subset of short k-mers (k &asymp; 10).</li>
