Hierarchical structure of cascade of primary and secondary periodicities in Fourier power spectrum of alphoid higher order repeats.

TLDR
DFT provides a robust detection method for higher order periodicity and is robust with respect to monomer insertions and deletions, random sequence insertions etc.
Abstract
Background Identification of approximate tandem repeats is an important task of broad significance and still remains a challenging problem of computational genomics. Often there is no single best approach to periodicity detection and a combination of different methods may improve the prediction accuracy. Discrete Fourier transform (DFT) has been extensively used to study primary periodicities in DNA sequences. Here we investigate the application of DFT method to identify and study alphoid higher order repeats.

Understanding Long-range Correlations in DNA Sequences

TL;DR: A review of the literature on statistical long-range correlation in DNA sequences can be found in this paper, where the authors conclude that a mixture of many length scales (including some relatively long ones) is responsible for the observed 1/f-like spectral component.

Measure representation and multifractal analysis of complete genomes

TL;DR: Spectral analyses performed indicate that these measure representations, considered as time series, exhibit strong long-range correlation and the multifractal property of the measure representation and the classification of bacteria.

Direct mapping of symbolic DNA sequence into frequency domain in global repeat map algorithm

TL;DR: This work presents several case studies of GRM use, and presents the use of complete set of a K-string ensemble which enables a new method of direct mapping of symbolic DNA sequence into frequency domain, with straightforward identification of repeats as peaks in GRM diagram.

Coexistence of different base periodicities in prokaryotic genomes as related to DNA curvature, supercoiling, and transcription.

TL;DR: The comparison with available experimental data indicates that promoters with the most pronounced periodicities may be related to the supercoiling-sensitive genes.

Random Two-Component One-Dimensional Ising Model for Heteropolymer Melting

TL;DR: In this paper, a leading-order approximation for an additive physical quantity in the melting region is introduced; it is intimately connected with the microscopic statistical herteropolymer structure, which allows one to derive the heteropolymer distribution function (over the length and composition of the sections) directly from experimental data.

Analysis of Apparent 1/fα Spectrum in DNA Sequences

- 20 Aug 1993 - 
TL;DR: The question whether the correlations in DNA sequences are long ranged or short ranged is addressed by an extensive analysis of genetic sequences and the results do not support the notion of critical properties of sequential distribution of nucleotides.
