Swarm
Description
A robust and fast clustering method for amplicon-based studies. The purpose of swarm is to provide a novel clustering algorithm that handles massive sets of amplicons. Results of traditional clustering algorithms are strongly input-order dependent, and rely on an arbitrary global clustering threshold. swarm results are resilient to input-order changes and rely on a small local linking threshold d, representing the maximum number of differences between two amplicons. swarm forms stable, high-resolution clusters, with a high yield of biological information.

Upcoming modulesystem change alert!
Due to large number of applications and their versions it is not practical to keep them explicitly listed at our wiki pages. Therefore an upgrade of modulefiles is underway. A feature of this upgrade will be the existence of default module for every application. This default choice does not need version number and it will load some (usually latest) version.
You can test the new version now by adding a line
source /cvmfs/software.metacentrum.cz/modulefiles/5.1.0/loadmodules
to your script before loading a module. Then, you can list all versions of swarm and load default version of swarm as
module avail swarm/ # list available modules module load swarm # load (default) module
If you wish to keep up to the current system, it is still possible. Simply list all modules by
module avail swarm
and choose explicit version you want to use.
