We implement a data mining technique based on the method of Independent Component Analysis (ICA) to generate reliable independent data sets for different HIV therapies. The ICA algorithm has been used to generate different patterns of the HIV dynamics under different therapy conditions. By converting the sequences of nucleotides and polypeptides into digital genomic signals, this approach offers the possibility to use a large variety of signal processing methods for their handling and analysis. It is also shown that some essential features of the nucleotide sequences can be better extracted using this representation. New tools for genomic signal analysis, including the use of phase, aggregated phase, unwrapped phase, sequence path, stem representation of components' relative frequencies, as well as analysis of the transitions are introduced at the nucleotide, codon and amino acid levels, and in a multiresolution approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
