Abstract
Techniques perform de novo assembly. The assembly can use labels that indicate origins of the nucleic acid molecules. For example, a representative set of labels identified from initial reads that overlap with a seed can be used. Mate pair information can be used. A sequence read that aligns to an end of a contig can lead to using the other sequence read of a mate pair, and the other sequence read can be used to determine which branch to use to extend, e.g., in an external cloud or helper contig. A kmer index can include labels indicating an origin of each of the nucleic acid molecules that include each kmer, memory addresses of the reads that correspond to each kmer in the index, and a position in each of the mate pairs that includes the kmer. Haploid seeds can also be determined using polymorphic loci identified in a population.
