Use of whole genome DNA spectrograms in bacterial classification
We developed the SpectCMP method, which is suitable for the classification of bacteria at different taxonomic levels. The SpectCMP method is an alignment-free method that is based on DNA spectrogram comparisons. The SpectCMP method works with whole genome sequences; it does not require retrieving protein coding regions from the genome.
