Description: header and static library for reading & writing SLOW5 files
Slow5lib is a software library for reading & writing SLOW5 files.
Slow5lib is designed to facilitate use of data in SLOW5 format by third-
party software packages. Existing packages that read/write data in FAST5
format can be easily modified to support SLOW5.
.
SLOW5 is a new file format for storing signal data from Oxford Nanopore
Technologies (ONT) devices. SLOW5 was developed to overcome inherent
limitations in the standard FAST5 signal data format that prevent
efficient, scalable analysis and cause many headaches for developers.
SLOW5 can be encoded in human-readable ASCII format, or a more compact
and efficient binary format (BLOW5) - this is analogous to the seminal
SAM/BAM format for storing DNA sequence alignments. The BLOW5 binary
format supports *zlib* (DEFLATE) compression, or other compression
methods, thereby minimising the data storage footprint while still
permitting efficient parallel access. Detailed benchmarking experiments
have shown that SLOW5 format is an order of magnitude faster and
significantly smaller than FAST5.
.
This is the development package containing headers and static library.
