Abstract

See full text

An estimate of a target sequence of polymer units is generated from a series of measurements taken by a measurement system comprising nanopores during translocation of the polymer through a nanopore. A global model of the measurement system is stored, comprising transition weightings for possible transitions between k-mers on which successive measurements are dependent and emission weightings for possible values of measurements being observed when the measurement is dependent on possible identities of k-mer. The global model is adjusted, making reference to measurements taken using the measurement system such that the fit of the measurements to the adjusted model is improved. The estimate of a target sequence of polymer units is generated using the adjusted model. The adjustment of the model improves the quality of the estimation.
