SWIFT 1.0.1 / BALSAM 1.3 – Fast Local Alignment Searching

SWIFT 1.0.1 / BALSAM 1.3

:: DESCRIPTION

SWIFT suit is a software collection for fast index-based sequence comparison. It contains the following programs:

  • SWIFT — fast local alignment search, guaranteeing to find epsilon-matches between two sequences.
  • SWIFT BALSAM (BAsic fiLter for Semigobal non-gapped AlignMent search) — a very fast program to find semiglobal non-gapped alignments based on k-mer seeds.

Swift – Primary data analysis for Next-gen DNA Sequencers

Swift

:: DESCRIPTION

Swift is an open source (LGPL3) package for processing that image data and extracting base calls. Currently Swift is targeted toward Solexa/Illumina sequencing, but is designed to be platform agnostic.
