minia - 3.2.6-4+b4 main

What was referred to as "next-generation" DNA sequencing up to
the year 2020 delivered only "short" reads up to ~600 base pairs
in length that would then have to be puzzled by random overlaps
in their sequence towards a complete genome. This is the genome
assembly. And there are many biological pitfalls on long stretches
of low complexity regions and copy number variations and other
sorts of redundancies that render this difficult.
.
This package provides a short-read DNA sequence assembler based on a
de Bruijn graph, capable of assembling a human genome on a desktop
computer in a day.
.
The output of Minia is a set of contigs, i.e. stretches of gap-free
linear overlaps of short reads. In the best possible case this is
a whole chromosome.
.
Minia produces results of similar contiguity and accuracy to other
de Bruijn assemblers (e.g. Velvet).
