collectmultiplemetrics
Run a GPU-accelerated version of GATK’s CollectMultipleMetrics.
This tool applies an accelerated version of the GATK CollectMultipleMetrics for assessing BAM file metrics such as alignment success, quality score distributions, GC bias, and sequencing artifacts. This functions as a ‘meta-metrics’ tool that can run any combination of the available metrics tools in GATK to perform an overall assessment of how well a sequencing run has been performed. The available metrics tools (PROGRAMs) can be found in the reference section below.
See the collectmultiplemetrics Reference section for a detailed listing of all available options.
# This command assumes all the inputs are in INPUT_DIR and all the outputs go to OUTPUT_DIR.
docker run --rm --gpus all --volume INPUT_DIR:/workdir --volume OUTPUT_DIR:/outputdir \
--workdir /workdir \
nvcr.io/nvidia/clara/clara-parabricks:4.4.0-1 \
pbrun collectmultiplemetrics \
--ref /workdir/${REFERENCE_FILE} \
--bam /workdir/${INPUT_BAM} \
--out-qc-metrics-dir /outputdir/${OUTPUT_DIR}\
--gen-all-metrics
The command below is the GATK4 counterpart of the Parabricks command above. The output from this command will be identical to the output from the above command.
$ gatk CollectMultipleMetrics \
--REFERENCE_SEQUENCE <INPUT_DIR>/${REFERENCE_FILE} \
-I <INPUT_DIR>/${INPUT_BAM} \
-O <OUTPUT_DIR>/${OUTPUT_DIR} \
--PROGRAM CollectAlignmentSummaryMetrics \
--PROGRAM CollectInsertSizeMetrics \
--PROGRAM QualityScoreDistribution \
--PROGRAM MeanQualityByCycle \
--PROGRAM CollectBaseDistributionByCycle \
--PROGRAM CollectGcBiasMetrics \
--PROGRAM CollectSequencingArtifactMetrics \
--PROGRAM CollectQualityYieldMetrics
Run collectmultiplemetrics on a BAM file to generate files for multiple classes of metrics.
