Canu is a fork of the Celera Assembler, designed for high-noise single-molecule
sequencing (such as the PacBio RS II/Sequel or Oxford Nanopore MinION).
Canu is a hierarchical assembly pipeline which runs in four steps:
Detect overlaps in high-noise sequences using MHAP
Generate corrected sequence consensus
Trim corrected sequences
Assemble trimmed corrected sequences
