HERRO: haplotype-aware error correction of ultra-long nanopore reads

Abstract Phased genome assembly traditionally requires the use of at least two distinct long-read technologies: ultra-long nanopore simplex reads, and either PacBio HiFi or nanopore duplex reads. However, our research indicates that self-corrected ultra-long nanopore reads alone are adequate for achieving this goal. We have developed a tool called HERRO, which specializes in the error correction of ultra-long reads while taking into account nucleotide variations characteristic of each haplotype. HERRO is a two-stage technique that integrates read overlapping with artificial intelligence (AI)-based error correction. It utilises a blend of convolutional neural networks and self-attention mechanisms within its architecture. Correcting R10.4.1 ultra-long reads, HERRO achieves a significant increase in accuracy, reducing the error rate by more than an order of magnitude. By employing only corrected ultra-long reads, HERRO demonstrates results in de novo assembly of the human HG002 genome that are on par with or surpass those obtained by methods that combine uncorrected ultra-long reads with either PacBio HiFi or duplex nanopore reads.
