Abstract: The presence of repeated sequences is a fundamental feature of biological genomes. The detection of tandem repeats is important in biology and medicine as it can be used for phylogenic studies and disease diagnosis. A major difficulty in identification of repeats arises from the fact that the repeat units can be either exact or imperfect, in tandem or dispersed, and of unspecified length. Many of the methods for detecting repeated sequences are part of the digital signal processing field. These methods involve the application of a kind of transformation. Applying a transform technique requires mapping the symbolic domain into the numeric domain in such a way that no additional structure is placed on the symbolic sequence beyond that inherent to it. Therefore the numerical representation of genomic signals is very important. This paper presents results obtained by combining grey level spectrograms with two novel numerical representations to isolate position and leng!
