Category Read Filters

Overview

Tests whether a flow based read is "well-formed" -- that is, is free of major internal inconsistencies and issues that could lead to errors downstream. If a read passes this filter, the rest of the engine should be able to process it without blowing up. Note that checks already present in WellformedReadFilter are not duplicated here.

Well-formed flow based reads definition

• Flow order: read group must have flow order
• Quality: should be symtrical within each hmer.
• tp attribute: should be symtrical within each hmer.
• tp attribute: tp+hmer_length should be within [0, maxhmer],
• Hardclipped hmer: is excempted from above checks.
