Base calling is the process of assigning nucleobases to chromatogram peaks, light intensity signals, or electrical current changes resulting from nucleotides passing through a nanopore. One computer program for accomplishing this job is Phred, which is a widely used base calling software program by both academic and commercial DNA sequencing laboratories because of its high base calling accuracy. Base callers for Nanopore sequencing use neural networks trained on current signals obtained from accurate sequencing data.
