The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a 5-year, $243,087 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York, doing business as Stony Brook University. The grant supports research to develop powerful, dynamic compressed indexes capable of efficiently handling a versatile set of queries and data representations for highly compressible datasets like DNA collections. Key goals include creating new algorithms for constructing compressed indexes, utilizing and improving modern suffix sampling techniques, and studying lower bounds for compressed index computations. This research aims to make it significantly cheaper, faster, and more energy-efficient to store and share large, compressible datasets, unlocking the potential of advances in DNA sequencing. The project will also integrate research experiences for underrepresented students and outreach to non-computer science students.
