2:02pm February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: Q: Dazzler release? A: Only when it's ready, extract tool soon, but correction needs some more work (to make it easier). 1mo #AGBT14

12:08pm February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: Q: Will you look at transcriptome assemblies? A: A hybrid strategy would be a good thing. May not have enough PacBio copies #AGBT14

12:07pm February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: LR enables de novo, reference quality reconstructions, great for comparative genomics, and large scale variation #AGBT14

12:06pm February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: Concl: high error 'is not a quality issue' - only efficiency and consensus. Eff problem solved here. #AGBT14

12:06pm February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: 2TB to 150GB filesizes using .dexta with PacBio human data #AGBT14

12:05pm February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

12:04pm February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: Can correction be bypassed? A hard question. All pure strategies - PacBio only, then assemble. #AGBT14

12:03pm February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers:50x human, 512 cores, 5 days to assemble in 16GB. Uses DFS, will take 100x longer if not. #AGBT14

12:02pm February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

12:00pm February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: You don't know when the PacBio error spikes (technology problem) but after consensus correction, to 0.5% error rate at 10x #AGBT14

11:59am February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: Don't think about the graph; scrub the underlying data. "This is for the gear-heads". (Comment: great talk nonetheless) #AGBT14

11:57am February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: Illustrates a string graph problem - contiguous stretches of underlying genome (untrue with real-world data), and error rate #AGBT14

11:56am February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: String graphs are the real problem. His paper from 2005 http://t.co/h4tlst8Fn0 #AGBT14

11:54am February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: 20x of 15% data gives Q70; the problem is the ability to assemble efficiently. Punch-line: 'We're 37x faster" on a modest h/w #AGBT14

11:53am February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: At perfect Poisson, would get 100% coverage; 'this is why I'm excited' with PacBio data #AGBT14

11:52am February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: Implications - the higher x, the accuracy will converge geometrically with depth. #AGBT14

11:52am February 14th 2014 via Hootsuite

Myers: Talking about RS 2 - P4/C2, 11% insertion, 3% deletion, 1% subst. But errors are random; read sampling also >nearly< random #AG
