Abstract:
Bioinformatics analysis often requires the filtering of multi-datasets, based on frequency or frequency of occurrence, for decisions on retention or deletion. Existing tools for this purpose often present a challenge with complex installation, which necessitate custom coding, thereby impeding efficient data processing activities. To address this issue, Filterx, a user-friendly command line tool that written in C language, was developed that supports multi-condition filtering, based on frequency or occurrence. This tool enables users to complete the data processing tasks through a simple command line, greatly reducing both workload and data processing time. In addition, future development of this tool could facilitate its integration into various bioinformatics data analysis pipelines.
