Efficient Construction of a Complete Index for Pan-Genomics Read Alignment
2018-11-19
Abstract excerpt
While short read aligners, which predominantly use the FM-index, are able to easily index one or a few human genomes, they do not scale well to indexing databases containing thousands of genomes. To understand why, it helps to examine the main components of the FM-index in more detail, which is a rank data structure over the Burrows-Wheeler Transform (BWT) of the string that will allow us to find the interval in t...
