Only predict class I MHC alleles #18

Closed Yiming-Shen closed 5 years ago

Yiming-Shen commented 5 years ago

Hi,

I am wondering if adding an option of specifying only class I or II alleles to predict at a time will reduce time/resource usage. If it does, I can perform HLA-PRG-LA on a resource-tensive machine with only 32GB memory.

Thanks.

Hi @Yiming-Shen, restricting the output to only class I or class II would not significantly alter performance, as the reads are always aligned to the complete MHC graph.
