The detailed merging process #140

Hi,

I am wondering the full process of SURVIVOR merge. In #101 , you mentioned that it contains two steps, first merge the close by SVs and this is to cope better with noisy alignments/ tricky regions. could you give an example of this step? does it means that the leftmost begin and the rightmost end among all closed by SVs will be output? or it just randomly pick one SV in the cluster and discard other closed by SVs? also, could you explain a little bit more detail about what does "to cope better with noisy alignments/ tricky regions" means?

Thanks!
