Parameter Details

• Calculation Parameters

• Hardware Parameters

• Metrics Parameters

Calculation Parameters

• CPUs (cpu_count) type: integer: The number of CPUs to run this cube with

  Default: 1 , Min: 1, Max: 128
• Cube Metrics (cube_metrics) type: string: Set of metrics to be collected

  
  

  Choices: cpu, disk, memory, network
• Directional reads (directional) type: boolean: If True, reads are oriented 5’ to 3’ with respect to the UMI extraction pattern. If False, they non-directional (UMI could be at either end).

  Default: False
• Temporary Disk Space (MiB) (disk_space) type: decimal: The minimum amount of disk space in MiB (1048576 B) this cube requires. Due to overhead, request a couple hundred MiB more than required.

  Default: 5120.0 , Min: 128.0, Max: 8589934592
• Hamming distance threshold for clustering UMIs (ed) type: integer:

  Default: 2 , Max: 100
• GPUs (gpu_count) type: integer: The number of GPUs to run this cube with

  Default: 0 , Max: 16
• Instance Tags (instance_tags) type: string: Only run on machines with matching tags (comma separated)

  Default: “”
• Instance Type (instance_type) type: string: The type of instance that this cube needs to be run on
• Memory (MiB) (memory_mb) type: decimal: The minimum amount of memory in MiBs (1048576 B) this cube requires. Due to overhead, request a couple hundred MiB more than required.

  Default: 1800 , Min: 256.0, Max: 8589934592
• Metric Period (metric_period) type: decimal: How often to sample metrics, in seconds

  Default: 60

  Choices: 1, 5, 10, 30, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, Min: 1, Max: 300
• Read group size threshold (min_seq_group_size) type: integer: Minimum number of sequencing reads per UMI

  Default: 5 , Min: 1
• Minimum number of unique UMIs per consensus sequence (min_umi_count) type: integer: Sequences are retained that are represented by at least this many UMIs.

  Default: 2 , Min: 1
• Shared Memory (MiB) (shared_memory_mb) type: decimal: The amount of shared memory to allow a container to address

  Default: 64
• Spot policy (spot_policy) type: string: Control cube placement on spot market instances

  Default: Prohibited

  Choices: Allowed, Preferred, NotPreferred, Prohibited, Required
• UMI extraction method (umi_extract_method) type: string: Method to use with regular expression string to extract UMI

  Default: string

  Choices: regex, string
• Unique molecular identifier extraction pattern (umi_regex) type: string: An extraction pattern for the unique molecular identifier (UMI), which may be a regular expression or a string using {N, C, X}. Be sure to include both 5’ and 3’ unique molecular identifiers. If you would like to demultiplex samples using a barcode table, DO NOT mark the sample barcode in the UMI extraction pattern as a region to be extracted

  Default: “”
• Reverse unique molecular identifier extraction pattern (umi_regex_rev) type: string: For use with non-directional reads only. Ignored if directional is set to True.

  Default: “”
