* Package name : centrifuge Version : 1.0.3~beta Upstream Author : Daehwan Kim, Li Song, Florian P. Breitwieser and Steven L. Salzberg * URL : https://github.com/infphilo/centrifuge/ * License : GPL Programming Lang: C++ Description : rapid and memory-efficient system for classification of DNA sequences Centrifuge is a very rapid and memory-efficient system for the classification of DNA sequences from microbial samples, with better sensitivity than and comparable accuracy to other leading systems. The system uses a novel indexing scheme based on the Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT) and the Ferragina-Manzini (FM) index, optimized specifically for the metagenomic classification problem. Centrifuge requires a relatively small index (e.g., 4.3 GB for ~4,100 bacterial genomes) yet provides very fast classification speed, allowing it to process a typical DNA sequencing run within an hour. Together these advances enable timely and accurate analysis of large metagenomics data sets on conventional desktop computers. Remark: This package will be maintained by the Debian Med team at https://anonscm.debian.org/git/debian-med/centrifuge.git
