GW: ultra-fast chromosome-scale visualisation of genomics data
Baird, D. M.; Kearsey, A.; Cleal, K.
AbstractGenome-Wide (GW) is an interactive genome browser that expedites analysis of aligned sequencing reads and data tracks, and introduces novel interfaces for exploring, annotating and quantifying data. GWs high-performance design enables rapid rendering of data at speeds approaching the file reading rate, in addition to removing the memory constraints of visualizing large regions. We report substantial gains in performance and demonstrate GWs utility in exploring massive genomic regions or chromosomes without requiring additional processing.
