99.83% accuracy score with the Precision FDA Truth Challenge V2 benchmarking data.3
Analyze whole genomes, exomes, methylomes, and transcriptomes with a single platform.
Fully process a 34× whole human genome in ~36 minutes2, Reduce FASTQ file sizes up to 5× with DRAGEN ORA Compression
The DRAGEN team has introduced powerful machine learning (ML) and improved graph genome mapping. These new advancements propel DRAGEN to lead accuracy across all read technologies in all benchmark regions and the MHC region. In this blog, we show the results collected in the PrecisionFDA Truth Challenge V2, compare the latest DRAGEN accuracy against the challenge submissions across all read technologies, and describe the methods used to reach high accuracy levels.
Read BlogThe DRAGEN Platform enables labs of all sizes and disciplines to do more with their genomic data. The DRAGEN Platform uses highly reconfigurable field-programmable gate array technology (FPGA) to provide hardware-accelerated implementations of genomic analysis algorithms, such as BCL conversion, mapping, alignment, sorting, duplicate marking, and haplotype variant calling. DRAGEN ORA lossless genomic compression technology enables significant storage cost savings on FASTQ files. Fundamental features of the DRAGEN Platform address common challenges in genomic analysis, such as lengthy compute times and massive volumes of data.
Without compromising accuracy, the DRAGEN Platform delivers quickness, flexibility, and cost efficiency. The reprogrammable nature of the DRAGEN Platform enables Illumina to develop custom algorithms and allows for improvements to accommodate future applications.
