Toward a Dynamic Threshold for Quality-Score Distortion in Reference-Based Alignment

Marco Mattavelli, Claudio Paolo Alberti, Ana Angelica Hernandez Lopez

The intrinsic high entropy metadata, known as quality scores, are largely the cause of the substantial size of sequence data files. Yet, there is no consensus on a viable reduction of the resolution of the quality score scale, arguably because of collatera ...
