Closed access Metadata (CSL-JSON)
DOI 10.1145/2975167.2985673
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Time-Frequency (TF) analysis has been extensively used for the analysis of numeric signals in the past decade. In this paper, using the notion of interpretive signal processing (ISP) and by redefining correlation functions for non-numeric sequences, a general class of TF transforms are extended and applied to non-numerical genomic sequences. The technique has been successfully evaluated on synthetic and real DNA sequences. The proposed method is fairly generic and is believed to be useful for extracting quantitative and visual information regarding local and global periodicity, symmetry, (non-) stationarity and spectral color of genomic sequences.
