Merfin: improved variant filtering, assembly evaluation and polishing via k-mer validation
Merfin, a k-mer based variant-filtering algorithm for improved accuracy in genotyping and genome assembly polishing. Merfin evaluates each variant based on the expected k-mer multiplicity in the reads, independently of the quality of the read alignment and variant caller’s interna...Tags: Merfin, improved, variant, filtering, assembly, evaluation, polishing, k-mer, validation
