Correcting Illumina sequencing errors for human data
نویسنده
چکیده
Summary: We present a new tool to correct sequencing errors in Illumina data produced from high-coverage whole-genome shotgun resequencing. It uses a non-greedy algorithm and shows comparable performance and higher accuracy in an evaluation on real human data. This evaluation has the most complete collection of highperformance error correctors so far. Availability and implementation: https://github.com/lh3/bfc Contact: [email protected]

An adaptive decorrelation method removes Illumina DNA base-calling errors caused by crosstalk between adjacent clusters
Base-calling accuracy is crucial for high-throughput DNA sequencing and downstream analysis such as read mapping and genome assembly. Accordingly, we made an endeavor to reduce DNA sequencing errors of Illumina systems by correcting three kinds of crosstalk in the cluster intensity data. We discovered that signal crosstalk between adjacent clusters accounts for a large portion of sequencing err...
متن کاملCorrecting Illumina data
Next-generation sequencing technologies revolutionized the ways in which genetic information is obtained and have opened the door for many essential applications in biomedical sciences. Hundreds of gigabytes of data are being produced, and all applications are affected by the errors in the data. Many programs have been designed to correct these errors, most of them targeting the data produced b...

UNLABELLED BFC is a free, fast and easy-to-use sequencing error corrector designed for Illumina short reads. It uses a non-greedy algorithm but still maintains a speed comparable to implementations based on greedy methods. In evaluations on real data, BFC appears to correct more errors with fewer overcorrections in comparison to existing tools. It particularly does well in suppressing systemati...

متن کاملCorrection of sequencing errors in a mixed set of reads
MOTIVATION High-throughput sequencing technologies produce large sets of short reads that may contain errors. These sequencing errors make de novo assembly challenging. Error correction aims to reduce the error rate prior assembly. Many de novo sequencing projects use reads from several sequencing technologies to get the benefits of all used technologies and to alleviate their shortcomings. How...
