In these two simulated data sets, no matter whether the mismatch positions are designed to have high or low quality, all four aligners show a lower false alignment rate in the data set generated from 3000 exon regions (0.7-5%, see Table 9A, B) compared to the data set generated from 218 CpG islands that have more repetitive regions 14-177%, see Table 10A, B).
However, Novoalign exhibits higher false alignment rates compared to the other three aligners.
In addition, a false alignment is defined as a read that is aligned to other positions rather than the one from which it was generated.
We used the following parameters: parsing type none, spatial, valid, gain and temporal calibration automatic, temporal algorithm sequence, temporal valid uncertainty false, alignment uncertainty 15, calibration frequency 15, and video model general model.
We also describe our procedure for evaluating false alignment rates on both real and simulated reads.
We demonstrate that BFAST is able to substantially increase the number of reads correctly placed in the genome when containing short insertions and deletions and various numbers of errors while maintaining a lower false alignment rate than any other alignment tools.

(A decent approximation given true-positive rates of >99% in our quality filtered alignments, see Counting False Alignments below).
Minimizing the number of false alignments is an important step for some applications such as de novo assembly.
SNPs missed by false alignments can be recovered by manually editing the problematic alignment.
A minimum read depth of 3 reads is used to minimize false alignments of reads on the reference sequence.
However, applying a unique mapping strategy does not exclude false alignments as efficiently as filtering with mapping qualities [ 81].

Since I tried Ludwig back in 2017, I have been constantly using it in both editing and translation. Ever since, I suggest it to my translators at ProSciEditing.
