Abstract:Features extraction methods, such as k-mer-based methods, have recently made up a significant role in classifying and analyzing approaches for metagenomics data. But, they are challenged by various bottlenecks, such as performance limitations, high memory consumption, and computational overhead. To deal with these challenges, we developed an innovative features extraction and sequence profiling method for DNA/RNA sequences, called PC-mer, taking advantage of the physicochemical properties of nucleotides. PC-me… Show more
