GPU-Acceleration of Sequence Homology Searches with Database Subsequence Clustering.

Sequence homology searches are used in various fields and require large amounts of computation time, especially for metagenomic analysis, owing to the large number of queries and the database size. To accelerate computing analyses, graphics processing units (GPUs) are widely used as a low-cost, high...
