Filtering cells before or after cellsnp-lite #68

If I wanted to only consider real cells is there a way to filter cells that have too low read counts? I see how I could filter the input reads or bam myself before cellsnp-lite but I was wondering what you think. Can vireo filter cells out before running? Thanks.

Hi, cellsnp-lite or vireo can not filter cells with low read counts. This task is more like "cell calling". You may use cell barcodes stored in cellranger folder filtered_gene_bc_matrices, or filter cells based on the UMI/read counts generated from the bam file.
