Abstract
Although long-read sequencing technologies opened a new era in genome assembly, the problem of resolving unbridged repeats (i.e., repeats that are not spanned by any reads) such as long segmental duplications in the human genome remains largely unsolved, making it a major obstacle towards achieving the goal of complete genome assemblies.
