HeteroGenome is a non-redundant catalog of DNA periodicity regions in a number of complete genomes of various organisms. It shows the results of an automated spectral-statistical approach to the genome-wide heterogeneity (latent periodicity) search. The significance level of revealed heterogeneities is 10 -6 and below. Heterogeneity regions listed in the database are potential regions of a late...

A periodicity extraction method is introduced to analyze voiced sounds with a complex excitation behavior. Although general voiced sound has only one periodicity, some voiced sounds such as the pathological voice and the singing voice often have multiple periodicities. A method for estimating multiple periodicities from voiced sounds to deal with these kinds of voices is proposed in this articl...

An earlier reported method for revealing latent periodicity of the nucleotide sequences has been considerably modified in a case of small samples, by applying a Monte Carlo method. This improved method has been used to search for the latent periodicity of some nucleotide sequences of the EMBL data bank. The existence of the nucleotide sequences' latent periodicity has been shown for some genes....

We introduce and test several novel approaches for periodicity detection in unevenlyspaced sparse datasets. Specifically, we examine five different kinds of periodicity metrics, which are based on non-parametric measures of serial dependence of the phase-folded data. We test the metrics through simulations in which we assess their performance in various situations, including various periodic si...

Striae periodicity refers to the number of cross-striations between successive lines of Retzius in tooth enamel. A regular time dependency of striae periodicity, known as the circaseptan interval, has been proposed. Previous studies on striae periodicity have been carried out on both modern and early humans given its potential applications in forensic age estimations and anthropology. Neverthel...
