Background:

Nanopore sequencing relies on electrical signals from DNA passing through pores.
Base calling, translating signals to DNA bases, is crucial for sequencing accuracy.
Current convolutional neural network (CNN) base callers struggle with variable nanopore sequencing speeds.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a novel neural network component, dynamic pooling, to address variable sequencing speeds in nanopore base calling.
To create advanced base callers, Heron and Osprey, leveraging dynamic pooling.
To enhance both accuracy and speed in nanopore DNA sequencing.

Main Methods:

Introduced dynamic pooling, a neural network component that adaptively adjusts pooling ratios.
Developed two base callers, Heron and Osprey, incorporating dynamic pooling.
Evaluated base caller performance against existing methods like Bonito and Guppy.

Main Results:

Heron demonstrates improved accuracy over Oxford Nanopore's Bonito.
Osprey achieves competitive accuracy with Guppy's high-accuracy mode.
Osprey offers high-speed base calling on CPUs without requiring GPU acceleration.

Conclusions:

Dynamic pooling effectively handles variable sequencing speeds in nanopore data.
The Heron and Osprey base callers represent significant advancements in nanopore sequencing technology.
These tools offer improved accuracy and/or speed for DNA base calling.
