Last year, we published our paper on two-step metagenomic classification. The next stage of this work is now starting to bear fruit. In experiments, we have seen the read classification rate of randomly selected SRA samples go up from 74% to 97%.
Our paper on Slacken, a metagenomic classifier based on the Kraken 2 method, was recently published in NAR Genomics and Bioinformatics. In this post I (Johan) would like to break down the main results and what they might mean for Kraken 2 users and microbiologists in a simple way.
