摘要: The most widely used algorithm for the comparison of two sequences DNA are O(m*n) on lengths, m and n, been compared. authors present a that is O(nlog n) length, longer sequence. This uses techniques developed rapid discrete signals, in particular, cross-correlation using fast Fourier transform (FFT). treat as signal with each nucleotide base represented by single point signal. There only four possible values can assume which they represent one complex numbers. made performing cross correlation between conjugate other. Any significant peak resulting indicates strong similarity sequences. results strains human immunodeficiency virus simian viruses. Their suggest this technique powerful method comparing very long DNA. >
