Reference-free Assembly Assessment

Reference-Free Assembly Assessment is a computational methodology in genomics that evaluates the quality and completeness of de novo genome assemblies without reliance on a reference genome, distinguishing itself from reference-based approaches by utilizing intrinsic features such as k-mer spectra, read alignment consistency, and assembly contiguity metrics to assess accuracy and structural fidelity.
