Ferox

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.
