Abstract

We explore connections between metagenomic read assignment and the quantification of transcripts from RNA-Seq data. In particular, we show that the recent idea of pseudoalignment introduced in the RNA-Seq context is suitable in the metagenomics setting. When coupled with the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm, reads can be assigned far more accurately and quickly than is currently possible with state of the art software.
