摘要
Randic et al. proposed a famous compact graphical representation for visualizing and analyzing DNA sequences. However, it has a disadvantage that observers can not know the composition of DNA sequences except recoding the binary representation from start point. In this paper, we improve randic's model with a new representation Worm Step. Worm Step has several advantages: (1) avoids degeneracy, (2) avoids loss of information, (3) highly compact, and (4) observers can immediately grasp the information about DNA base composition. Applications of Worm Step on similarity analysis and phylogenetic tree study also are presented.
