From: Diminishing return for increased Mappability with longer sequencing reads: implications of the k-mer distributions in the human genome

Figure 5

Fitting rank-frequency distribution of k -mers at k = 30, 50, 150, 500 using three functions. Red: quadratic logarithmic (logf∼ log(r)+ log((r))2, f: frequency of a k-mer type, r: rank of a k-mer type, and the ∼ symbol represents linear regression); blue: reverse Beta rank function (log(r)∼ log(f)+ log(m a x(f)+1-f)); Orange: Weibull function (log(f)∼ log(log((m a x(r)+1)/r))).
