This study delves further into the analysis of genomic data by computing a variety of complexity measures. We analyze the effect of window size and evaluate the precision and recall of the prediction of gene zones, aided with a much larger dataset (full chromosomes). A technique based on the separation of two cases (gene-containing and non-gene-containing) has been developed as a basic gene predictor for automated DNA analysis. This predictor was tested on various sequences of human DNA obtained from public databases, in a set of three experiments. The first one covers window size and other parameters; the second one corresponds to an analysis of a full human chromosome (198 million nucleic acids); and the last one tests subject variability (with five different individual subjects). All three experiments have high-quality results, in terms of recall and precision, thus indicating the effectiveness of the predictor.
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.
