Sequence alignment with memory arrays

Abstract

A memory device may be used to implement a Bloom filter. In some examples, the memory device may include a memory array to perform a multiply-accumulate operation to implement the Bloom filter. The memory device may store multiple portions of a reference genetic sequence in the memory array and compare the portions of the reference genetic sequence to a read sequence in parallel by performing the multiply-accumulate operation. The results of the multiply-accumulate operation between the read sequence and the portions of the reference genetic sequence may be used to determine where the read sequence aligns to the reference sequence.
