Our method is implemented in a tool Two-step Graph Mapper, which is available at https://github.com/uio-bmi/two_step_graph_mapperalong with data and scripts for reproducing the experiments. Our method highlights characteristics of the current generation of graph-based read mappers and shows potential for improvement for future graph-based read mappers.
