An accurate algorithm for the detection of DNA fragments from dilution pool sequencing experiments.

ABSTRACT: Motivation:The short read lengths of current high-throughput sequencing technologies limit the ability to recover long-range haplotype information. Dilution pool methods for preparing DNA sequencing libraries from high molecular weight DNA fragments enable the recovery of long DNA fragments from short sequence reads. These approaches require computational methods for identifying the DNA fragments using aligned sequence reads and assembling the fragments into long haplotypes. Although a number of computational methods have been developed for haplotype assembly, the problem of identifying DNA fragments from dilution pool sequence data has not received much attention. Results:We formulate the problem of detecting DNA fragments from dilution pool sequencing experiments as a genome segmentation
