Error Correction in Preprocessing of Next-generation Sequencing

To achieve accurate sequenced reads of high quality result,many error correction techniques were proposed. For all these error correction methods,it is essential to evaluate their characteristics and their fitted applications. In this paper,all error correction methods published in the field were reviewed.First,from the underlined algorithms point of view,these available tools were analyzed. Second,from the NGS application platforms,error characteristics of short reads were presented. Third,from the different applications,the read error presentation in these places was reviewed. Finally,a conclusion was drawn and the possible future work for error correction of NGS was introduced.
