K-mer Based Annotation

K-Mer Based Annotation is a computational method in metagenomic annotation that identifies and assigns biological functions or taxonomic labels to sequencing reads by matching short, fixed-length subsequences (k-mers) against reference databases, distinguished from other annotation approaches by its reliance on exact or probabilistic k-mer matching rather than full sequence alignment.
