GASAL2: a GPU accelerated sequence alignment library for high-throughput NGS data

Abstract Background Due the computational complexity of sequence alignment algorithms, various accelerated solutions have been proposed to speedup this analysis. NVBIO is the only available GPU library that accelerates sequence alignment of high-throughput NGS data, but has limited performance. In t...
