Category Read Filters

Overview

This filter is intended to ensure that only reads that are likely to be mapped in the right place, and therefore to be informative, will be used in analysis.

Usage example

     java -jar GenomeAnalysisTk.jar \
         -T ToolName \
         -R reference.fasta \
         -I input.bam \
         -o output.file \
         -rf MaxInsertSize \
         -maxInsert 10000
