Abstract excerpt
Introduction: Often, bioinformatics uses summary sketches to analyze next-generation sequencing data, but most sketches are not well understood statistically. Under a simple mutation model, Blanca et al. analyzed complete sketches, that is, the complete set of unassembled k-mers, from two closely related sequences. The analysis extracted a point mutation parameter θ quantifying the evolutionary distance between...
