Abstract
Disclosed are new and improved methods and systems for nucleic acid sequence analysis that can analyze data indicative of natural by-products of nucleotide incorporation events without the need for exogenous labels or dyes to identify nucleic acid sequences of interest. In particular, the methods and systems of the present teachings can process such data and various forms thereof to align fragments of the nucleic acid(s) of interest, particularly those analyzed using an addition sequencing technique, for example, as occurs with the use of nucleotide flows.
