From: MQF and buffered MQF: quotient filters for efficient storage of k-mers with their counts and metadata

Fig. 1

MQF has a lower load factor compared to CQF. Chunks of items, from different frequency distributions, were inserted iteratively to matching CQF and MQF structures. MQF had lower loading factors for all tested datasets with better performance with more uniform distributions (The further from the 45° line the better the MQF). Real k-mers used here is generated from the ERR1050075 experiment to represent real sequencing. Additional file 1: Figure S1 shows the comparisons between 8 real datasets
