What do these 10X Genomics sequencing metrics mean?

Question

[Chen Sun]

Some papers report their 10X Genomics barcoded short-reads dataset summary metrics. I can not find the meaning of some metrics on 10X Genomics website.

1. Mean Barcode Richness
2. Mean Barcode Size

What does Barcode Richness and Barcode Size mean here?

I can only find this: https://support.10xgenomics.com/genome-exome/software/pipelines/latest/output/metrics

Hi Chen, I have worked on 10x data from longranger wgs. Where exactly did you find these metrics?

On page 7, Table 1 of this paper: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2017/11/10/217869. Thanks!

Sorry, I have never heard of them. It would be best to contact the authors of the manuscript or 10x Genomics, just to be sure.
