Alignment-free [Formula: see text] oligonucleotide frequency dissimilarity measure improves prediction of hosts from metagenomically-derived viral sequences

Viruses and their host genomes often share similar oligonucleotide frequency (ONF) patterns, which can be used to predict the host of a given virus by finding the host with the greatest ONF similarity. We comprehensively compared 11 ONF metrics using several k-mer lengths for predicting host taxonom...
