ART 20160605 – Next-generation Sequencing Read Simulator

ART 20160605

:: DESCRIPTION

ART is a set of simulation tools to generate synthetic next-generation sequencing reads. ART simulates sequencing reads by mimicking real sequencing process with empirical error models or quality profiles summarized from large recalibrated sequencing data.

Mason 0.1.2 – Read Simulator software for Illumina, 454 and Sanger reads

Mason 0.1.2

:: DESCRIPTION

Mason is a read simulator software for Illumina, 454 and Sanger reads. Its features include position specific error rates and base quality values. For Illumina reads, we give a comprehensive analysis with empirical data for the error and quality model. For the other technologies, we use models from the literature. It has been written with performance in mind and can sample reads from large genomes.
