Predicted vs. Empirical Quality Scores in Ion Torrent and MiSeq Data
Posted by David Jenkins on Sep 13, 2011A recent blogpost at BioLektures explains why it isn’t really fair to compare MiSeq and Ion Torrent data based on their predicted quality scores, as Ion Torrent tends to undercall quality across their reads. Illumina’s predicted quality score algorithm, however, is more accurate in predicting the actual quality score. In a recent application note Illumina compares predicted quality scores between their MiSe
