Coriolis: enabling metagenomic classification on lightweight mobile devices.

ABSTRACT:

Motivation

The introduction of portable DNA sequencers such as the Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION has enabled real-time and in the field DNA sequencing. However, in the field sequencing is actionable only when coupled with in the field DNA classification. This poses new challenges for metagenomic software since mobile deployments are typically in remote locations with limited network connectivity and without access to capable computing devices.

Results

We propose new strategies to enable in the field metagenomic classification on mobile devices. We first introduce a programming model for expressing metagenomic classifiers that decomposes the classification process into well-defined and manageable abstractions. The model simplifies resource management in mobile setups an
