Description
SVIM (pronounced SWIM) is a structural variant caller for long sequencing reads. It is able to detect and classify the following six classes of structural variation: deletions, insertions, inversions, tandem duplications, interspersed duplications and translocations. SVIM also estimates the genotypes of deletions, insertions, inversions and interspersed duplications. Unlike other methods, SVIM integrates information from across the genome to precisely distinguish similar events, such as tandem and interspersed duplications and simple insertions. In our experiments on simulated data and real datasets from PacBio and Nanopore sequencing machines, SVIM reached consistently better results than competing methods.
Note! To analyze haploid or diploid genome assemblies or contigs, please use our other method SVIM-asm.
