Parallel algorithm for sensitive sequence recognition from long-read genome data with high error rate by Cheng ZHONG, Hui SUN

“…To solve the problem that existing algorithms were difficult to effectively identify sensitive sequences in genomic data for long-read with high error rate, a recognition algorithm using hybrid CPU and GPU parallel computing, called CGPU-F3SR, was proposed.Firstly, the long-read in genomic data were partitioned into multiple short-read, and the Bloom filtering mechanism was used to avoid repeated calculation of the short-read.Secondly, the k-mer coding strategy was used to extract in parallel the error information of all short-read, the recognition accuracy was promoted by improving the sequence similarity calculation model.Finally, CPU and GPU were used to coordinate and parallel to accelerate the calculation of short-read similarity to improve recognition efficiency.As a result, both two types of sensitive sequences including short tandem repeats and disease related sequences could be identified efficiently and accurately from genome data for long-read with high error rate.The experimental results of recognizing sensitive sequences from genomic data for long-read with length 100～400 kbp each show that, compared with existing parallel algorithm, the average recognition accuracy and precision rate of proposed CPU/GPU parallel algorithm CGPU-F3SR are increased by 7.77% and 43.07% respectively, its average false positive rate is reduced by 7.41%, and its average recognition throughput is increased by 2.44 times.…”
