Figure Lengend Snippet: Modelled error rates. Modelled error rates from (a) an Illumina GA data set (lane 2), (b) an Illumina GA data set (lane 4) and (c) an Illumina HiSeq data set (lane 2).

Article Snippet: In our creation of a simulated data set, for the sake of comparison, we used the error probabilities from each position and transition that were found in the Illumina GA lane 2 data set.
