Inquiry about incorporating unique k-mer counting into Kraken2 #206

Open rumorej opened 4 years ago

rumorej commented 4 years ago

Hello!

I noticed on your website that there are plans to potentially incorporate unique kmer counting into Kraken2, but however, it is not currently guaranteed. Therefore, I was wondering if this is something that is still in the works? It would be extremely helpful to have a tool that runs as quickly as Kraken2, while at the same time, incorporating unique kmer counting, which I have found to be extremely useful for my research.

Any feedback you can offer is greatly appreciated!

This is currently being worked on and we hope to have a version available ASAP but I do not have a specific date yet for when this will be provided.
