Technological versus Algorithmic Limitations
When a bioinformatician assembles a genome, two factors come into play in determining the quality of the assembly. The first factor is algorithmic limitation. Genome assembly algorithms are continually improving, but it is still possible to be limited by the programming
The second limitation comes from sequencing technology itself. For example, the
