The nanopore sequencing of short sequences, whose lengths are typically less than 0.3kb therefore comparable with Illumina sequencing techniques, has recently gained wide attention. Here, we design a scheme for training nanopore basecallers that are specialized for short biomolecules. With bioengineered RNA (BioRNA) molecules as examples, we demonstrate the superior accuracy of basecallers trained by our scheme.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
