New benchmarks of our upcoming de novo assembler
We have had our upcoming de novo assembly algorithm in internal Alpha for some time now, and have just released an updated technical note with benchmarks from the Alpha 2 version, which is the version we’re currently running.
Impressive benchmarks
These new benchmarks are quite impressive: De novo assembly of a data set with 38 fold coverage of the human genome, completed in only 7 hours on a single computer, while also improving the overall quality!
Interested in trying this de novo assembler yourself?
Hopefully we can have the beta version out for public testing before Christmas - stay tuned! If you’re interested in more information, you can sign up here and get an invitation, once it’s released: Click to sign up for a beta trial of our de novo assembler
