HINGE

HINGE

HINGE is a tool for de novo genome assembly that addresses the challenge of using error prone long reads. It combines error tolerance feature of Overlap-Layout-Consensus and repeat resolution of de Bruijn graph assembler. Additionally, HINGE produces visually interpretable assembly graph.
