(a) A schematic representation of a scaffold and a Hi-C contact in our formalization. (b) There are four cases orienting two contigs, i.e. the ith and jth contigs; in each case, the distance between the contact points of $r\in R_{i,j}$ is fixed depending on ${\theta }_i,{\theta }_j$, as illustrated by the lengths of the red dotted lines
