Acknowledgments

Many of the major algorithmic improvements relative to RaGOO's first release were provided by Aleksey Zimin, lead developer of the MaSuRCA assembler. This includes the use of read-mapping for misassembly validation as well as the use of alignment merging for improved scaffolding. Luca Venturini also suggested and initially implemented many feature enhancments, such as pysam integration.
