Abstract :
The detection of tandem repeats is important in biology and medicine as it can be used for phylogenic studies and disease diagnosis. This paper presents results obtained with spectral techniques using Fourier analysis for detecting approximate tandem repeats (ATRs) in DNA sequences. These methods are sensitive to ATRs and are robust in the presence of substitutions, insertions, and deletions
