Abstract:Abstract-The generation of a correlation matrix from a large set of long gene sequences is a common requirement in many bioinformatics problems such as phylogenetic analysis. The generation is not only computationally intensive but also requires significant memory resources as, typically, few gene sequences can be simultaneously stored in primary memory. The standard practice in such computation is to use frequent input/output (I/O) operations. Therefore, minimizing the number of these operations will yield mu… Show more
“…Its computation has been recently investigated for single computer platforms [17,18]. It is re-programmed for our experiments in this paper by using the Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) provided in our distributed computing framework.…”

“…All-to-All Comparisons are a key calculation stage in Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA) and also in studying phylogenetic diversity in protein families [16]. In general, big data processing in these problems include calculation of a cross-similarity matrix between each pair of the data sequences [17,18]. This calculation is followed by several data grouping stages.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
