Initial release of HVSeeker

We have developed HVSeeker, a deep learning-based method for distinguishing between
bacterial and phage sequences. HVSeeker consists of two separate models: one analyzing DNA
sequences and the other focusing on proteins. This method has shown promising results on sequences
with various lengths, ranging from 200 to 1500 base pairs. Tested on both NCBI and IMGVR
databases, HVSeeker outperformed several methods from the literature such as Seeker, Rnn-VirSeeker,
DeepVirFinder, and PPR-Meta. Moreover, when compared with other methods on benchmark datasets,
HVSeeker has shown better performance, establishing its effectiveness in identifying unknown phage
genomes
