Detection of palindromes in DNA sequences using periodicity transform

The detection of palindrome sequences in DNA sequences is important in biology. Palindrome is also called inverted repeat and is an important element in the human genome. This paper presents a novel technique of applying modified periodic transform and signal processing methods in the domain of palindrome detection. Palindrome has recently received a lot attention in the research community due to its significance in identifying several key areas in a genome in relation to gene amplification, gene regulation and diseases.
