Using this approach we derive techniques to discover latent relationships between organisms such as significant motifs and evolutionary features. Doubly singular value decomposition is defined and the significance of this adaptation is demonstrated by finding a phylogeny of twenty prokaryotes. Minimal killer words are used to define families of organisms from negative information. The application of these words makes it possible to automatically retrieve the coding frame of a sequence from any organism.}, identifier = {05659449}, }
