Jaccard similarity index for pairwise comparisons of selected sets of minimal absent words in four human genome assemblies.

<p>The Jaccard similarity index is the ratio between the intersection and the union of the two sets. GRCh37 is the reference human genome assembly build 37.1, HuRef is the genome of Craig Venter, NA12878 is the human genome assembly from cell line GM12878, and YH is the genome of a Han Chinese individual. For each human genome assembly, set contains all minimal absent words (MAWs) of length 11 bp, set contains all MAWs of length 50 bp, set contains all MAWs of length 100 bp, set contains all MAWs of length 300 bp, and set contains all MAWs of length 1,000 bp. The noRC columns display results without considering the reversed complement and the withRC columns display results considering the reversed complement.
