HiPhase

A tool for jointly phasing small, structural, and tandem repeat variants for PacBio sequencing data

---

HiPhase will phase variant calls made from PacBio HiFi datasets. Key features relative to other phasing tools include:

• Joint phasing of small variants and structural variants
• Support for multi-allelic variation
• Creates longer, correct phase blocks relative to the current best practice
• No downsampling of the data
• Novel algorithms: dual-mode allele assignment and core A* phasing algorithm
• Quality of life additions: innate multi-threading, simultaneous haplotagging and statistics generation
