Which is faster: Bowtie2GP > Bowtie > Bowtie2 > BWA
Abstract
We have recently used genetic programming to automatically generate an improved version of Langmead's DNA read alignment tool Bowtie2 Sect.5.3 RN/12/09. We find it runs more than four times faster than the Bioinformatics sequencing tool (BWA) currently used with short next generation paired end DNA sequences by the Cancer Institute, takes less memory and yet finds similar matches in the human genome.
