Acceleration of Algorithms for Approximate String Matching
Voženílek, Jan ; Kořenek, Jan (referee) ; Martínek, Tomáš (advisor)
The objective of this bachelor's thesis is to design and implement architecture for FPGA chips that accelerates matching of two strings and scoring them for similarity. Used processes come from bioinformatics algorithms, especially Needleman-Wunsch and Smith-Waterman. Due to general design and generic implementation in VHDL the unit is able to compare any sequences of characters, which is a task widely used in many branches of informatics from database searches (where approximate matching allows discovery of spelling errors) to spam detection. Depending on task specification the acceleration speed up against common software solution can reach orders of hundreds or even thousands.
