Figure 2. — The four different types of super-k-mers. The example is for $k = 13$ and minimizer length $m = 7$ , so $w = k - m + 1 = 13 - 7 + 1 = 7$ . The shaded boxes highlight the minimizer sub-string inside a k-mer. The start position of the minimizer is marked with a solid border when it is either max (7), or min (1).
