2passtools: two-pass alignment using machine-learning-filtered splice junctions increases the accuracy of intron detection in long-read RNA sequencing

Abstract Transcription of eukaryotic genomes involves complex alternative processing of RNAs. Sequencing of full-length RNAs using long reads reveals the true complexity of processing. However, the relatively high error rates of long-read sequencing technologies can reduce the accuracy of intron ide...
