process_sequences(fasta_file, thread_id, total_threads, progress_queue, batch_size=100000, ksize=51, scaled=10000)

Process a subset of sequences to create a FracMinHash sketch.

Each process creates its own MinHash instance and processes sequences assigned based on the thread ID. Progress is reported via a shared queue.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
fasta_file str

Path to the FASTA file.

required
thread_id int

Identifier for the current thread.

required
total_threads int

Total number of threads.

required
progress_queue Queue

Queue for reporting progress.

required
batch_size int

Number of sequences per progress update. Defaults to 100_000.

100000
ksize int

K-mer size. Defaults to 51.

51
scaled int

Scaling factor for MinHash. Defaults to 10_000.

10000

Returns:
