Proposal of Smith-Waterman algorithm on FPGA to accelerate the forward and backtracking steps.
In bioinformatics, alignment is an essential technique for finding similarities between biological sequences. Usually, the alignment is performed with the Smith-Waterman (SW) algorithm, a well-known sequence alignment technique of high-level precision based on dynamic programming. However, given the...
