Numerical data is stored in nucleic acids by producing samples having nucleic acid sequences copy counts corresponding to the numerical data. Data objects of a dataset are encoded by partitioning of bytes into parts and encoding of parts along distinct libraries of nucleic acids. These libraries can be used as inputs for computation on the dataset.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2022Publication date: February 2, 2023Inventors: Nathaniel Roquet, Swapnil P.
