A Framework for Designing Efficient Deep Learning-Based Genomic Basecallers
View through CrossRef
Abstract
Nanopore sequencing generates noisy electrical signals that need to be converted into a standard string of DNA nucleotide bases using a computational step called basecalling. The performance of basecalling has critical implications for all later steps in genome analysis. Therefore, there is a need to reduce the computation and memory cost of basecalling while maintaining accuracy. We present

RUBICON
by developing
RUBICALL
, the first hardware-optimized mixed-precision basecaller that performs efficient basecalling, outperforming the state-of-the-art basecallers. We believe
RUBICON
offers a promising path to develop future hardware-optimized basecallers.
