Optimization for short input genome #2

Closed mxwang66 closed 7 months ago

mxwang66 commented 11 months ago

When input genome is short compared to desired amplicon length (e.g., less than 20 amplicons to cover the whole genome), optimize for genome coverage. Loss should be multiplied by 1/coverage.

see v1.1.4 Updated Loss function for short genomes (Loss is multiplied by 1/coverage^2).
