The strength of these methods makes them particularly useful for next-generation sequencing data processing and analysis. However, many researchers are unclear about how these methods work, how they compare to alignment-based methods, and what their potential is for use for their research. We address these questions and provide a guide to the currently available alignment-free sequence analysis tools.
