Zhao et al (in preparation) includes references to the following material:

GSearch is an ultra-fast and scalable (e.g., millions or billions of genomes) microbial genomic search program based on probabilistic data structures and graph-based nearest neighbor search (e.g., Hierarchical Navigable Small World Graph, HNSW). For example, MinHash-like data structures such as SuperMinHash or ProbMinHash, or HyperLogLog-like data structures such as HyperLogLog or SetSketch are implemented for speed/accuracy and space/accuracy, respectively. GSearch will be even faster compared to other tools with larger database size due to O(log(N)) time complexity. Details on how to install and use GSearch can be found here: GSearch.

The download links below are pre-built databases for different microbial genomes. You can skip steps to build database but use the pre-built databases below.
