Abstract excerpt
The analysis of gene-gene interactions related to common complex human diseases is complicated by the increasing scale of genetic association analysis. Concurrent with the advances in genetic technology that led to these large data sets, improvements have been made in parallel computing with graphics processing units (GPUs). The data-intensive nature of genetic association analysis makes this problem particularly...
