Recent technological advances in Next Generation Sequencing tools have led to increasing speeds of DNA sample collection, preparation, and sequencing. One instrument can produce over 600 Gb of genetic sequence data in a single run. This creates new opportunities to efficiently handle the increasing workload. We propose a new method of fast genetic sequence analysis using the Dynamic Distributed Dimensional Data Model (D4M) - an associative array environment for MATLAB developed at MIT Lincoln Laboratory. Based on mathematical and statistical properties, the method leverages big data techniques and the implementation of an Apache Acculumo database to accelerate computations one-hundred fold over other methods. Comparisons of the D4M method with the current gold-standard for sequence analysis, BLAST, show the two are comparable in the alignments they find. This paper will present an overview of the D4M genetic sequence algorithm and statistical comparisons with BLAST.
The decreasing costs and increasing speed and accuracy of DNA sample collection, preparation, and sequencing has rapidly produced an enormous volume of genetic data. However, fast and accurate analysis of the samples remains a bottleneck. Here we pre
We propose a simple tractable pair hidden Markov model for pairwise sequence alignment that accounts for the presence of short tandem repeats. Using the framework of gain functions, we design several optimization criteria for decoding this model and
PURPOSE: The popularity of germline genetic panel testing has led to a vast accumulation of variant-level data. Variant names are not always consistent across laboratories and not easily mappable to public variant databases such as ClinVar. A tool th
When analyzing the genome, researchers have discovered that proteins bind to DNA based on certain patterns of the DNA sequence known as motifs. However, it is difficult to manually construct motifs due to their complexity. Recently, externally learne
Data from discovery proteomic and phosphoproteomic experiments typically include missing values that correspond to proteins that have not been identified in the analyzed sample. Replacing the missing values with random numbers, a process known as imp
