Abstract
Systems and methods for analyzing genomic information can include obtaining a sequence read including genetic information; identifying, within a graph representing a reference genome, a plurality of candidate mapping positions that relate to the genetic information, the graph comprising nodes representing genetic sequences and edges connecting pairs of nodes; determining, by means of a computer system, whether an alignment with the graph surrounding each of the plurality of candidate mapping positions is advanced or basic; and performing for each candidate mapping position, by means of the computer system, a local alignment based on whether the local alignment is advanced or basic. The advanced local alignment can include a first-local-alignment algorithm, and the basic local alignment includes a second-local-alignment algorithm. Based on the local alignments, the mapped position of the sequence read can be identified within the genome.
