An evaluation of computational methods for reconstruction of human viral DNA genomes

We provide a fully reproducible benchmark capable of evaluating currently available reconstruction programs. The benchmark is open-source and freely available at https://github.com/viromelab/HVRS. Additionally, based on the knowledge obtained from the systematic review and the benchmark, we provide some program recommendations for different reconstruction scenarios.

Abstract

We provide a fully reproducible benchmark capable of evaluating currently available reconstruction programs. The benchmark is open-source and freely available at https://github.com/viromelab/HVRS. Additionally, based on the knowledge obtained from the systematic review and the benchmark, we provide some program recommendations for different reconstruction scenarios.
