KAnalyze is a Java toolkit designed to convert DNA and RNA sequences into k-mers. It is both a command line application and an API.

Trowel is an error correction module for Illumina sequencing reads, which is based on the k-mer spectrum approach. This tool is the first tool that uses a quality threshold instead of a coverage cutoff in order to extract trusted k-mers. This tool guarantees high accuracy and speed. This tool has been developed since 21. Jan. 2013 by Euncheon Lim in Prof. Dr. Detlef Weigel's Lab in Max-Planck Institute for Developmental Biology. First of all, you have to install the exact version of boost(>=1.53.0), google sparse hash(>=2.0.2), GCC(>=4.6), autoconf(=2.69), and automake(=1.13).

Ferox is a DNA sequence alignment application that uses fuzzy k-mers to quickly and accurately align sets of sequence reads against a reference genome. Ferox can also be used to align whole genomes. The seeding mechanism used by Ferox is highly configurable, allowing custom fuzzy seeds to be created declaratively in an XML configuration file.

This tool is designed to solve generalized pattern matching problem, by which we only find a set of sub-patterns, ignoring the gaps in between the sub-patterns. This tool is extremely fast and also has good tolerance to errors.
