Abstract: A new version of DNA walks, where nucleotides are regarded unequal in their contribution to a walk is introduced, which allows us to study thoroughly the “fine structure” of nucleotide sequences. The approach is based on the assumption that nucleotides have an inner abstract characteristic ...

DETERMINING THE BEST MUTATION PROBABILITIES OF A

Firstly, we generated 10 ETC matrices which we then used to run the GA3SM algorithm 10 times (once for each matrix). Afterwards, we computed the mean of the result ...
