Simka and simkaMin are de novo comparative metagenomics tools. Simka represents each dataset as a k-mer spectrum and computes several classical ecological distances between them. SimkaMin outputs approximate (but very similar) results by subsampling the kmer space and requires much less computational resources.
To install this package, run one of the following:
