KPop: accurate and scalable comparative analysis of microbial genomes by sequence embeddings
Abstract Here we introduce KPop, a novel versatile method based on full k-mer spectra and dataset-specific transformations, through which thousands of assembled or unassembled microbial genomes can be quickly compared. Unlike MinHash-based methods that produce distances and have lower resolution, KP...
