Description : CoNvex Gap-cost alignMents for Long Reads
ngmlr is a long-read mapper designed to sensitively
align PacBilo or Oxford Nanopore to (large) reference
genomes. It was designed to quickly and correctly
align the reads, including those spanning (complex)
structural variations. Ngmlr uses an SV aware k-mer
search to find approximate mapping locations for a
read and then a banded Smith-Waterman alignment
algorithm to compute the final alignment. Ngmlr
uses a convex gap cost model that penalizes gap
extensions for longer gaps less than for shorter
ones to compute precise alignments.
