STAR-GPU (Still in Development)

CUDA implementation of STAR aligner.

  • This almost uses 75% code base from nvBowtie (GPU version of Bowtie2 aligner which is part of nvbio).

Changes from nvBowtie:

  • Spliced alignments are the biggest challenege and the difference.
  • Seeding (Maximum mapability length), in other words exact match of biggest substring of the read.
  • Scoring is done by Sharon Entropy principle.
