Falcon: a set of tools for fast aligning long reads for consensus and assembly

The Falcon tool kit is a set of simple code collection which I use for studying efficient assembly algorithm for haploid and diploid genomes. It has some back-end code implemented in C for speed and some simple front-end written in Python for convenience.

We use FALCON-integrate in conjunction with SLURM to run FALCON on HiPerGator. See the sample SLURM fc_run.cfg for an example.
