centrifuge - 1.0.3-11 main

Centrifuge is a very rapid and memory-efficient system for the
classification of DNA sequences from microbial samples, with better
sensitivity than and comparable accuracy to other leading systems. The
system uses a novel indexing scheme based on the Burrows-Wheeler
transform (BWT) and the Ferragina-Manzini (FM) index, optimized
specifically for the metagenomic classification problem. Centrifuge
requires a relatively small index (e.g., 4.3 GB for ~4,100 bacterial
genomes) yet provides very fast classification speed, allowing it to
process a typical DNA sequencing run within an hour. Together these
advances enable timely and accurate analysis of large metagenomics data
sets on conventional desktop computers.
