Whether unitig will be filtered based on the hic signal of unitig #666

Hi, I used bwa mem to compare hic data to p-utg files and did some filtering on the results. It was found that there were very few hic signals on some short unitigs. I would like to ask whether hifiasm will filter out unitig nodes with few hic signals in the process of generating conitg from unitig using hic. Looking forward to your reply, wish you a happy life!

No, it won't do any filter for the unitig.

Thank you for your answer. I have one more question. What about unitigs whose length is so short that they do not map on the hic data. Or, does the alignment based on kmer not result in misalignment or very little signal. Looking forward to your reply
