GBWT v1.1
Major new functionality: FastLocate
. An add-on structure for the compressed GBWT implementing the r-index locate()
algorithm. Larger than the existing locate()
structure but also much faster. Must be rebuilt whenever the GBWT is changed.
Other improvements:
- Metadata is ignored when merging empty GBWTs.
- Faster construction when the paths contain many different starting nodes.
