UmiCorrectionMetrics

Metrics tracking how well observed UMIs match expected UMI sequences.

These metrics are generated per-UMI and track the distribution of match types (perfect matches, single mismatches, etc.) for each expected UMI.

Fields

  • umi - The expected/corrected UMI sequence (or all Ns for unmatched)
  • total_matches - Total UMI sequences matched/corrected to this UMI
  • perfect_matches - Number of reads with zero mismatches
  • one_mismatch_matches - Number of reads with exactly one mismatch
  • two_mismatch_matches - Number of reads with exactly two mismatches
  • other_matches - Number of reads with three or more mismatches
  • fraction_of_matches - Proportion of all reads matching this UMI
  • representation - Ratio of this UMI’s count to the mean count across all UMIs

Fields

ColumnTypeDescription
umiStringThe corrected UMI sequence (or all Ns for unmatched).
total_matchesu64The number of UMI sequences that matched/were corrected to this UMI.
perfect_matchesu64The number of UMI sequences that were perfect matches to this UMI.
one_mismatch_matchesu64The number of UMI sequences that matched with a single mismatch.
two_mismatch_matchesu64The number of UMI sequences that matched with two mismatches.
other_matchesu64The number of UMI sequences that matched with three or more mismatches.
fraction_of_matchesf64The fraction of all UMIs that matched or were corrected to this UMI.
representationf64The total_matches for this UMI divided by the mean total_matches for all UMIs.
