Canu is a hierarchical assembly pipeline which runs in four steps: . * Detect overlaps in high-noise sequences using MHAP * Generate corrected sequence consensus * Trim corrected sequences * Assemble trimmed corrected sequences Canu has reached end of life. It hasn't seen active development since around 2021 and has not been tuned or tested on more recent data. Unless you're assembling reads from that era, use a more recent assembler.
