The effects of sampling on the efficiency and accuracy of k−mer indexes: Theoretical and empirical comparisons using the human genome

One of the most common ways to search a sequence database for sequences that are similar to a query sequence is to use a k-mer index such as BLAST. A big problem with k-mer indexes is the space required to store the lists of all occurrences of all k-mers in the database. One method for reducing the...
