PIA : more accurate taxonomic assignment of metagenomic data demonstrated on sedaDNA from the North sea [PDF]

, 2020
Assigning metagenomic reads to taxa presents significant challenges. Existing approaches address some issues, but are mostly limited to metabarcoding or optimized for microbial data. We present PIA (Phylogenetic Intersection Analysis): a taxonomic binner
