Background: K-mer frequency counting is an upstream process of many bioinformatics data analysis workflows. KMC3 and CHTKC are the representative partition-based k-mer counting and non-partition-based k-mer counting algorithms, respectively.

Strobemers: an alternative to k-mers for sequence comparison
K-mer-based methods are widely used in bioinformatics for various types of sequence comparison. However, a single mutation will mutate k consecutive k-mers and makes most k-mer based applications for sequence comparison sensitive to variable mutation ...

Genomic DNA k-mer Spectra: Models and Modalities [PDF]
Abstract Background The empirical frequencies of DNA k-mers in whole genome sequences provide an interesting perspective on genomic complexity, and the availability of large segments of genomic sequence from many organisms means that analysis of k-mers with non-trivial lengths is now possible.

These are not the k-mers you are looking for: efficient online k-mer counting using a probabilistic data structure. [PDF]
K-mer abundance analysis is widely used for many purposes in nucleotide sequence analysis, including data preprocessing for de novo assembly, repeat detection, and sequencing coverage estimation.

The effect of the lateral interactions on the critical behavior of long straight rigid rods on two-dimensional lattices [PDF]
Using Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling analysis, the critical behavior of attractive rigid rods of length $k$ ($k$-mers) on square lattices at intermediate density has been studied.

An efficient strategy using k-mers to analyse 16S rRNA sequences
The use of k-mers has been a successful strategy for improving metagenomics studies, including taxonomic classifications, or de novo assemblies, and can be used to obtain sequences of interest from the available databases.

A k-mer grammar analysis to uncover maize regulatory architecture
Background Only a small percentage of the genome sequence is involved in regulation of gene expression, but to biochemically identify this portion is expensive and laborious.

Fine-scale differentiation between Bacillus anthracis and Bacillus cereus group signatures in metagenome shotgun data [PDF]
Background It is possible to detect bacterial species in shotgun metagenome datasets through the presence of only a few sequence reads. However, false positive results can arise, as was the case in the initial findings of a recent New York City subway ...
