When we analyze the state-of-the-art works, we find that there is a pressing need for a flexible, high-performant, and energy-efficient hardware-software co-design to efficiently and effectively solve all the major inefficiencies in the Baum-Welch algorithm for pHMMs.

Unfortunately, it is currently bottlenecked by the computational power and memory bandwidth limitations of existing systems, as many of the steps in genome sequence analysis must process a large amount of data.
