Chaos Game Representation of a genetic sequence

Chaos Game Representation is a graphical representation of a sequence. It is a method of converting a long one-dimensional sequence (in our case a genetic sequence) into a graphical form. It is a novel holistic approach that provides a visual image of a DNA sequence quite different from the traditional linear arrangement of nucleotides. CGR can recognize patterns in the nucleotide sequences, obtained from databases of a class of genes using the techniques of fractal structures and by considering DNA sequences as strings composed of four units, A, T, C and G. Such recognition of patterns relies on visual identification. It is an application of non-random input to an iterated function system. The method was first proposed for the DNA sequence, now it is being used for any arbitrary symbols. <a href="https://towardsdatascience.com/chaos-game-representation-of-a-genetic-sequence-4681f1a67e14">Website</a>
