On the Fractal Geometry of DNA by the Binary Image Analysis

Abstract: The multifractal analysis of binary images of DNA is studied in order to define a methodological approach to the classification of DNA sequences. This method is based on the computation of some multifractality parameters on a suitable binary image of DNA, which takes into account the nucleotide distribution. The binary image of DNA is obtained by a dot-plot (recurrence plot) of the indicator matrix. The fractal geometry of these images is characterized by fractal dimension (FD), lacunarity, and succolarity. Th… Show more

“…This method allows the display of the nucleotide patterns in 2 dimensions with preservation of autocorrelation between symbols of sequence [19]. In this studies we have considered only 4 symbols, in particular Adenine (A), Cytosine (C), Thymine (T) and Guanine (G) that form the DNA sequences.…”

“…In this paper, the BIIM was used to convert uni-dimensional symbolic sequences (such as DNA sequences) in 2-D images and to compute the FD and lacunarity. This method allows to visualize a typical patterns of nucleotide that looks like a fractal arrangement such as demonstrated by Cattani in recent works and in the study of complexity of Caenorhabditis elegans [2,19,[24][25][26].…”

“…To understand this aspect better, we may take the case of estimating information entropy from DNA sequences as a concrete example. While entropy is close to two bits, based on the distribution of nucleotide bases [14], it becomes significantly lower than two bits when sequential correlations are taken into account [69] (for recent studies on DNA sequences, we refer to [70][71][72][73][74][75]). …”
