A new hash function and its use in read mapping on genome

Mapping reads onto genomes is an indispensable step in sequencing data analysis. A widely used method to speed up mapping is to index a genome by a hash table, in which genomic positions of $k$-mers are stored in the table. The hash table size increases exponentially with the $k$-mer length and thus...
