Interactive Exploration on Large Genomic Datasets.

ABSTRACT: The prevalence of large genomics datasets has made the the need to explore this data more important. Large sequencing projects like the 1000 Genomes Project [1], which reconstructed the genomes of 2,504 individuals sampled from 26 populations, have produced over 200TB of publically available data. Meanwhile, existing genomic visualization tools have been unable to scale with the growing amount of larger, more complex data. This difficulty is acute when viewing large regions (over 1 megabase, or 1,000,000 bases of DNA), or when concurrently viewing multiple samples of data. While genomic processing pipelines have shifted towards using distributed computing techniques, such as with ADAM [4], genomic visualization tools have not. In this work we present Mango, a scalable genome browser built
