The paper introduces JEM-mapper, an efficient parallel algorithm for alignment-free long read mapping, achieving high precision and recall with significant speedup over existing tools.

Maptcha improves hybrid genome scaffolding by combining partial assemblies with long reads, producing longer and more accurate scaffolds faster than existing methods.

BOA improves genome assembly quality and performance by using partitioning techniques to enable parallel processing of reads.
