PlotModeledSegments specific arguments

This table summarizes the command-line arguments that are specific to this tool. For more details on each argument, see the list further down below the table or click on an argument name to jump directly to that entry in the list.

Argument name(s) Default value Summary
Required Arguments
--output
 -O
Output directory. This will be created if it does not exist.
--output-prefix
Prefix for output filenames.
--segments
Input file containing modeled segments (output of ModelSegments).
--sequence-dictionary
File containing a sequence dictionary, which specifies the contigs to be plotted and their relative lengths. The sequence dictionary must be a subset of those contained in other input files. Contigs will be plotted in the order given. Contig names should not include the string "CONTIG_DELIMITER". The tool only considers contigs in the given dictionary for plotting, and data for contigs absent in the dictionary generate only a warning. In other words, you may modify a reference dictionary for use with this tool to include only contigs for which plotting is desired, and sort the contigs to the order in which the plots should display the contigs.
Optional Tool Arguments
--allelic-counts
Input file containing allelic counts at heterozygous sites (.hets.tsv output of ModelSegments).
--arguments_file
read one or more arguments files and add them to the command line
--denoised-copy-ratios
Input file containing denoised copy ratios (output of DenoiseReadCounts).
--gcs-max-retries
 -gcs-retries
20 If the GCS bucket channel errors out, how many times it will attempt to re-initiate the connection
--gcs-project-for-requester-pays
Project to bill when accessing "requester pays" buckets. If unset, these buckets cannot be accessed. User must have storage.buckets.get permission on the bucket being accessed.
--help
 -h
false display the help message
--maximum-copy-ratio
4.0 Maximum copy ratio to be plotted. If Infinity, the maximum copy ratio will be automatically determined.
--minimum-contig-length
1000000 Threshold length (in bp) for contigs to be plotted. Contigs with lengths less than this threshold will not be plotted. This can be used to filter out mitochondrial contigs, unlocalized contigs, etc.
--point-size-allele-fraction
0.4 Point size to use for plotting allele-fraction points.
--point-size-copy-ratio
0.2 Point size to use for plotting copy-ratio points.
--version
false display the version number for this tool
Optional Common Arguments
--gatk-config-file
A configuration file to use with the GATK.
--QUIET
false Whether to suppress job-summary info on System.err.
--tmp-dir
Temp directory to use.
--use-jdk-deflater
 -jdk-deflater
false Whether to use the JdkDeflater (as opposed to IntelDeflater)
--use-jdk-inflater
 -jdk-inflater
false Whether to use the JdkInflater (as opposed to IntelInflater)
--verbosity
INFO Control verbosity of logging.
Advanced Arguments
--showHidden
false display hidden arguments
