github.com - Jabba is a hybrid error correction tool to correct third generation (PacBio / ONT) sequencing data, using second generation (Illumina) data.
Input
Jabba takes as input a concatenated de Bruijn graph and a set of sequences:
the de Bruijn graph...
github.com - Key features
Filters SNVs from any variant caller to remove false positives
Calculates metrics based on BAM files and provides filtering not possible with other tools
Fully user-configurable filtering (including which filters to use and their...
Many times bioinformatician needs to parse binary files like bam and sff. Advantage of binary files is that they occupy less space in memory with maximum information content.
Link for those who looking for structure of Bam and sff...

sourceforge.net - AIRVF that works on flowgram, raw and mapped reads and called variants to reduce artifact-driven false variant calls. Tests on sequencing data of standard reference material showed up to ∼98% reduction of false variants when combined to...
github.com - Heap, that enables robustly sensitive and accurate calling of SNPs, particularly with a low coverage NGS data, which must be aligned to the reference genome sequences in advance. To reduce false positive SNPs, Heap determines genotypes and calls...
