The repeatscore plot
A sliding window is ran over the entire sequence to divide it into all substrings of a given length. (in this case 2).

The resulting matrix is then plotted as an image:

A Linear time algorithm
• The plots shown would take hours to construct using traditional methods.
• The algorithms used would not scale linearly
• It is not feasible to create these plots on large sequences unless more advanced algorithms are used.

Application to other sequences
• Analysing writing styles
• Finding plagiarised text
• Any sequence that may contain motif based, language like structure.

Conclusion
• This new visualisation technique can highlight repeat structure in sequences.
• In genomic sequences this maybe useful in generating annotation.
• There are applications in other areas worth pursuing.
• Our next step is to allow the repeatscore plot to be easily interrogated by a user in order to better understand the repeat structure.
