Robust translation from color-space to base-space. The base-space suggestions, obtained by translating only the first color call of each read, are shown in magenta. Contig assembly is performed using only the color part (indicated by numbers 0-3) of each sequence. Inconsistencies between the color-space calls and the base-space suggestions, signals the presence of errors. We use an error probability model to find the most likely DNA sequence consistent with this data. The underlined color calls and suggestions in the figure are declared as mistakes in the final translation.
