Genome assembly forensics: finding the elusive mis-assembly
We present the first collection of tools aimed at automated genome assembly validation. This work formalizes several mechanisms for detecting mis-assemblies, and describes their implementation in our automated validation pipeline, called amosvalidate. We demonstrate the application of our pi...Tags: Genome, assembly, forensics, elusive, mis-assembly
