Feature Extraction From DNA Sequences by Multifractal Analysis

Abstract

This paper presents feature extraction and estimation of multifractal measures of DNA sequences using a multifractal methodology and demonstrates a new scheme for identifying biological functionality, using information contained within the DNA sequences. It shows that the Renyi and Mandelbrot fractal dimension spectra may be useful techniques for extracting the information contained in the DNA sequences.
