"Spectrogram Analysis of Genomes"
by David Sussillo, Anshul Kundaje, and Dimitris Anastassiou,
in EURASIP Journal on Applied Signal Processing, 2004:1, Hindawi Publishing pp. 29-42

In this paper we perform time-frequency analysis of the genomes from various organisms. Two technologies are used, the pseudo smoothed Wigner-Ville distribution (SPWVD) and the Tricolor spectrogram visualization (TSV). The SPWVD calculates the DNA spectrograms in both time and frequency domains, and the TSV identify several types of distinct visual patterns characterizing specific DNA regions. We focus on the small patterns in relatively \´short\´ DNA segments, and relate these spectrogram patterns to the sequence characteristics of the DNA. Some patterns are explained from the biological nature of the corresponding regions, which relate to chromosome structure and protein coding, and some patterns have yet unknown biological significance
