Abstract :
Finding repetitive sequences in DNA is of particular interest in biology due to their role in genetic diseases, human gene mapping, evolution, and many other important and interesting applications. We propose a method for finding hidden periodicities in DNA based on Fourier analysis. It is shown that this approach is effective for finding new repeat patterns that were previously undetected by some of the most popular algorithms published in the literature
