It might be a bit early to call generative adversarial networks (GANs) the next platform for AI evolution, but there is little doubt we will hear much more about this beefed up approach to deep learning over the next year and beyond. …
More than almost any other market or research segment, genomics is vastly outpacing Moore’s Law. …
From its start in 2000, The Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) has been the largest genomic research center in Spain and among the largest in Europe. …
In 2003, the first human genome required $3 billion and fifteen years to fully sequence. …
There is a perfect storm developing that is set to whisk the once esoteric field programmable gate array (FPGA) processor ecosystem off the ground and into the stratosphere. …
When it comes to DNA analysis, large-scale pattern matching algorithms are constantly being refined to add a performance and efficiency boost to speed the time to result and accordingly, the practical implementation of fast analysis for more accurate, timely, personalized medical care and research. …
A team from the Joint Genome Institute at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and researchers from UC Berkeley have used 15,000 cores on the Cray XC30 “Edison” supercomputer to boost the complete assembly of the human genome, bringing the time down to 8.4 minutes. …
Last week we described the recent, explosive growth of Amazon Web Services, which the company says is due in large part to an influx of new users—and existing AWS customers who are scaling their workloads ever higher. …
