Identification of sequencing errors in the context of k-hopos. Illustration of how sequencing errors, i.e. insertions, deletions and substitutions, are represented in the context of k-hopos, given a k-hopo Sk. The figure shows how HECTOR handle errors in k-hopo Sk in the case of a) homopolymer insertion of nucleotide C, b) homopolymer insertion of nucleotide C, and c) substitution of nucleotide T with nucleotide A. Regardless of the type of error, only a single k-hopo pair is actually changed.
