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.

Characterizing long-range correlations in DNA sequences from wavelet analysis.

TL;DR: The wavelet transform microscope is demonstrated and quantify the existence of long-range correlations in genes containing introns and noncoding regions, and the fluctuations in the patchy landscapes of DNA walks are found to be homogeneous with Gaussian statistics.

Synergy between sequence and size in Large-scale genomics

TL;DR: Until recently the study of individual DNA sequences and of total DNA content (the C-value) sat at opposite ends of the spectrum in genome biology, but the dawn of comprehensive genome sequencing has allowed a new synergy between these fields, with sequence data providing novel insights into genome- size evolution, and with genome-size data being of both practical and theoretical significance for large-scale sequence analysis.
