kmc_tools-complex - complex operations with a number of input databases

kmc_tools complex <operations_definition_file>

This command executes a combination of operations as defined by <operations_definition_file>. It is text file with following syntax:

input1, input2, ..., inputN

names of inputs used to define equation

input1_db_path, input2_db_path, ..., inputN_db_path

paths to k-mers sets

For each input there are additional parameters which can be set:

-ci<value>

exclude k-mers occurring less than <value> times

cx<value>

exclude k-mers occurring more of than <value> times

out_db_path

path to output database

ref_input

one of input1, input2, ..., inputN

oper

one of {*,-,~,+}, which refers to {intersect, kmers_subtract, counters_subtract, union}

Operator '*' has the highest priority. Other operators have equal priorities. The order of operations can be changed with parentheses.

Output parameters:

-ci<value>

exclude k-mers occurring less than <value> times

-cx<value>

exclude k-mers occurring more of than <value> times

-cs<value>

maximal value of a counter
