bcftools is the standard toolkit for handling VCF and BCF variant files, but it processes records on a single core; its --threads option speeds up only compression of the output, not the work done on variant records. Processing large call sets is therefore slow, and users often divide the genome and reassemble the…

We present a GPU implementation of kallisto for RNA-seq transcript quantification. By redesigning the core algorithms: pseudoalignment, equivalence class intersection, and the EM algorithm; for massively parallel execution on GPUs, we achieve a 30–50× speedup over multithreaded CPU kallisto. On a benchmark of 100…

Recent advances in machine learning force fields (MLFF) have significantly extended the reach of atomistic simulations. Continuous progress in this field requires reliable reference datasets, accurate MLFF architectures, and efficient active learning strategies to enable robust modeling of complex molecular and…

Phylogenetic analysis is essential to genomic epidemiology, for example in tracing the origin and evolution of SARS-CoV-2 variants during the COVID-19 pandemic. We previously introduced CMAPLE, a single-threaded implementation of the MAPLE algorithm designed for large-scale epidemiological genomic datasets. CMAPLE can…

The FASTQ file format is the lingua franca of primary data distribution and processing across most of bioinformatics. Over time, the compression, storage, transmission, and decompression of gzip compressed fastq.gz files has become a substantial scalability bottleneck in the modern world of fast and massively parallel…

We now exist in the era of massive datasets from genomics, large language models, and all the known knowledge of humanity right at our fingertips. Much of this data is becoming more accessible; however, processing such data remains an ongoing issue across systems including high performance computing (HPC)…

Background: Pharmaceutical batch scheduling in multi-reactor configurations presents complex optimization challenges under operational uncertainty, yet limited research addresses how parallel processing capacity affects heuristic performance and predictive modeling. Objectives: This study investigated scheduling…

Bayesian optimization (BO) has become increasingly important for experimental optimization across scientific domains, yet implementing BO pipelines requires significant programming expertise and familiarity with specialized frameworks. This creates a barrier for domain experts who could benefit from BO but lack the…
