Bencmarking datasets

General Discussion
#1

Hi,

How can I find free compact datasets that I can use in my research topics for benchmarking purposes ?:

  • taxonomy annotation or classification (prediction?, which one is the correct name ? :slight_smile: )
  • OTUs Clustering
  • denoising

I want to develop tools as QIIME plugins.

I really appriciate your time .

Thanks.

Hi @osman,

Have you looked at the tutorial datasets? Those are designed to be small and relatively well behaved. You may also like mockrobiota.

Best,
Justine
