Afann: bias adjustment for alignment-free sequence comparison based on sequencing data using neural network regression

Abstract Alignment-free methods, more time and memory efficient than alignment-based methods, have been widely used for comparing genome sequences or raw sequencing samples without assembly. However, in this study, we show that alignment-free dissimilarity calculated based on sequencing samples can...
