I made Rebaler for bacterial genomes (specifically for the task of testing basecallers). It should in principle work for non-bacterial genomes as well, but I haven't tested it.

~$ ./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 polished sequence, e.g. with the IGV browser. In that case you want SViper to output the polished and aligned sequences in a bam file via the option --output-polished-bam:

~$ ./sviper -s short-reads.bam -l long-reads.bam -r ref.fa -c variants.vcf -o polished_variants --output-polished-bam

Of course, some long read correction algorithms are better than others, and developers of long read correction algorithms will wish to compare their algorithm with others currently available. LRCstats benchmarks long read correction algorithms using long reads produced by simulators (such as SimLoRD or PBSim) where the two-way alignments between the uncorrected long reads (uLR) and the corresponding sequences in the reference genome (Ref) are given in some sort of alignment file and then aligning the corrected long reads (cLR) to the Ref-uLR two-way alignments to create three-way alignments using a dynamic programming algorithm. Statistics on these three-way alignments are then collected, such as the overall error rates of the corrected long reads.
