As the global need for large-scale data storage is rising exponentially, existing storage technologies are approaching their theoretical and functional limits in terms of density and energy consumption, making DNA based storage a potential solution for the future of data storage. Several studies introduced DNA based storage systems with high information density (petabytes/gram). However, DNA synthesis and sequencing technologies yield erroneous outputs. Algorithmic approaches for correcting these errors depend on reading multiple copies of each sequence and result in excessive reading costs. The unprecedented success of Transformers as a deep learning architecture for language modeling has led to its repurposing for solving a variety of tasks across various domains. In this work, we propose a novel approach for single-read reconstruction using an encoder-decoder Transformer architecture for DNA based data storage. We address the error correction process as a self-supervised sequence-to-sequence task and use synthetic noise injection to train the model using only the decoded reads. Our approach exploits the inherent redundancy of each decoded file to learn its underlying structure. To demonstrate our proposed approach, we encode text, image and code-script files to DNA, produce errors with high-fidelity error simulator, and reconstruct the original files from the noisy reads. Our model achieves lower error rates when reconstructing the original data from a single read of each DNA strand compared to state-of-the-art algorithms using 2-3 copies. This is the first demonstration of using deep learning models for single-read reconstruction in DNA based storage which allows for the reduction of the overall cost of the process. We show that this approach is applicable for various domains and can be generalized to new domains as well.
With the rapid increase of available digital data, DNA storage is identified as a storage media with high density and capability of long-term preservation, especially for archival storage systems. However, the encoding density (i.e., how many binary
Sequencing a DNA strand, as part of the read process in DNA storage, produces multiple noisy copies which can be combined to produce better estimates of the original strand; this is called trace reconstruction. One can reduce the error rate further b
Based on the BioBricks standard, restriction synthesis is a novel catabolic iterative DNA synthesis method that utilizes endonucleases to synthesize a query sequence from a reference sequence. In this work, the reference sequence is built from shorte
