github.com - GRASS (GeneRic ASsembly Scaffolder)-a novel algorithm for scaffolding second-generation sequencing assemblies capable of using diverse information sources. GRASS offers a mixed-integer programming formulation of the contig scaffolding problem, which...

atifrahman.github.io - SWALO (scaffolding with assembly likelihood optimization) is a method for scaffolding based on likelihood of genome assemblies computed using generative models for sequencing. Please email your questions, comments, suggestions, and bug reports to...

github.com - SKESA is a DeBruijn graph-based de-novo assembler designed for assembling reads of microbial genomes sequenced using Illumina. Comparison with SPAdes and MegaHit shows that SKESA produces assemblies that have high sequence quality and contiguity,...

cab.spbu.ru - QUAST-LG is an extension of QUAST intended for evaluating large-scale genome assemblies (up to mammalian-size). QUAST-LG is included in the QUAST  package starting from version 5.0.0 (download the latest release). Run QUAST as...

To decide which strategy should be our “preferred” genome assembly approach based on data rather than my gut-feeling about the “best assembly” I decided to do some testing with a known “true” reference E Coli K12 MG1655
