Fractal Sequences

چکیده
Ever since Benoit Mandelbrot published his book on fractals [1], we’ve become accustomed to seeing fantastic and beautiful fractal images such as the ones at the bottom of the pages of this article. A fractal is a mathematical object that exhibits self similarity — it looks the same at any scale. If you zoom in on an image of a fractal, you see the same structure no matter how far you go, at least to the resolution of the image. In an actual fractal, there is no limit.

Sequence Complexity of Chromosome 3 in Caenorhabditis elegans
The nucleotide sequences complexity in chromosome 3 of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is studied. The complexity of these sequences is compared with some random sequences. Moreover, by using some parameters related to complexity such as fractal dimension and frequency, indicator matrix is given a first classification of sequences of C. elegans. In particular, the sequences with highest and...

متن کاملModelling Discrete Sequences with Fractal Interpolation Functions of Higher Order
We present a method that increases the accuracy of approximation of discrete sequences from fractal interpolation functions. Instead of previously presented models which use affine mappings, we employ polynomials of order d. Comparative results confirm the improvements in the accuracy of the proposed method.
متن کاملKimberling Fractal Sequences
The term fractal is used in a variety of ways, formally and informally. It generally is understood that a fractal exhibits self similarity — that it appears the same at any scale. This concept can be applied to integer sequences with respect to the magnitude and position of terms, various patterns, and so forth. For example, Hofstadter’s chaotic sequence [1], which is produced by the nested rec...
متن کاملClassifying dynamic textures via spatiotemporal fractal analysis
The large-scale images and videos are one kind of the main source of big data. Dynamic texture (DT) is essential for understanding the video sequences with spatio-temporal similarities. This paper presents a powerful tool called dynamic fractal analysis to DT description and classification, which integrates rich description of DT with strong robustness to environmental changes. The proposed dyn...
متن کاملFeature Extraction from Dna Sequences by Multifractal Analysis
This paper presents feature extraction and estimation of multifractal measures of DNA sequences, using a multifractal methodology, and demonstrates a new scheme for identifying biological functionality, using information contained within the DNA sequences. It shows that the Rényi and Mandelbrot fractal dimension spectra may be useful techniques for extracting the information contained in the DN...
