One goal of sequencing based metagenomic analysis is the quantitative
taxonomic assessment of microbial community compositions. However, the
majority of approaches either quantify at low resolution (e.g. at phylum
level) or have severe problems discerning highly similar species. Yet,
accurate quantification on species level is desirable in applications
such as metagenomic diagnostics or community comparison. GASiC is a
method to correct read alignment results for the ambiguities imposed by
similarities of genomes. It has superior performance over existing
methods.
.
This package includes some examples that can be used for testing gasic.
