Support for sparse datasets

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Currently datasets can be stored as numpy arrays in memory or as hdf5 file on disk.
As Genomics is full of sparse datasets, it makes sense to introduce a storage option for sparse data.

To this end, a SparseGenomicArray needs to be implemented that utilizes scipy.sparse matrices.

This has been implemented.
