github.com - BFC is a standalone high-performance tool for correcting sequencing errors from Illumina sequencing data. It is specifically designed for high-coverage whole-genome human data, though also performs well for small genomes.
The BFC algorithm is a...
gite.lirmm.fr - An error correction method that uses long reads only. The method consists of two phases: first, we use an iterative alignment-free correction method based on de Bruijn graphs with increasing length of k-mers, and second, the corrected reads are...
github.com - nQuire provides a statistical framework to study organisms with intraspecific variation in ploidy. nQuire is likely to be useful in epidemiological studies of pathogens, artificial selection experiments, and for historical or ancient samples where...
github.com - lordFAST is a sensitive tool for mapping long reads with high error rates. lordFAST is specially designed for aligning reads from PacBio sequencing technology but provides the user the ability to change alignment parameters depending on the reads...
github.com - Run a pipeline processing fast5s to a consensus in a single command.
Recommended fixed "standard" and "fast" pipelines.
Interchange basecaller, assembler, and consensus components of the pipelines simply by changing the target filepath.
Seemless...
In many autoimmune diseases, a misdirected immune response leads to chronic inflammation and subsequently to fibrotic and degenerative tissue remodeling. Therapeutic options are available for inflammatory joint diseases, but only about 40% of...
github.com - DeepVariant is an analysis pipeline that uses a deep neural network to call genetic variants from next-generation DNA sequencing data.
