Optimal compressed representation of high throughput sequence data via light assembly

Increase in high throughput sequencing (HTS) data warrants compression methods to facilitate better storage and communication. Here, Ginart et al. introduce Assembltrie, a reference-free compression tool which is guaranteed to achieve optimality for error-free reads.
