FYI, I've found it useful to use MUMmer to extract the specific changes that Racon makes, so I can evaluate them individually:
minimap -t 24 assembly.fasta long_reads.fastq.gz | racon -t 24 long_reads.fastq.gz - assembly.fasta...
gwct.github.io - 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...

github.com - Call sviper
~$ ./sviper -s short-reads.bam -l long-reads.bam -r ref.fa -c variants.vcf -o polished_variants
This will output a polished_variants.vcf file, that contains all the refined variants.
Sometimes it is helpful to look at the...
BBSplit internally uses BBMap to map reads to multiple genomes at once, and determine which genome they match best. This is different than with ordinary mapping. If a genome (say, human) contains an exact repeat somewhere, reads mapping to it will...
Short Read Simulators
With the popularity of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, many NGS read simulators have been developed. Currently, many of the popular short read simulators are designed to simulate reads mimicking many Illumina,...
github.com - ChIP-seq simulation pipeline, ChIPulate, we assess the impact of various biological and experimental sources of variation on several outcomes of a ChIP-seq experiment, viz., the recoverability of the TF binding motif, accuracy of TF-DNA binding...
github.com - Metabuli 분리 improves metagenomic read classification through metamers, DNA-AA k-mers, to be sensitive and specific, recovering 99% and 98% of DNA or AA classifiers.
Metabuli is metagenomic classifier that jointly analyze both DNA and amino...
