Description: fast and memory-efficient sequencing error corrector
Lighter is a fast, memory-efficient tool for correcting sequencing
errors. Lighter avoids counting k-mers. Instead, it uses a pair of Bloom
filters, one holding a sample of the input k-mers and the other holding
k-mers likely to be correct. As long as the sampling fraction is
adjusted in inverse proportion to the depth of sequencing, Bloom filter
size can be held constant while maintaining near-constant accuracy.
Lighter is parallelized, uses no secondary storage, and is both faster
and more memory-efficient than competing approaches while achieving
comparable accuracy.
