In a previous paper (Physica A 312 (2002) 458) we presented an analysis, which established that DNA sequences exhibit significant nonlinear structure. More specifically, we found that both coding and non-coding sequences exhibit nonlinearity, but coding sequences are more nonlinear than...

In this paper, we apply the principles of information theory that relate to the definition of nonlinear predictability, which is a measure that describes both the linear and nonlinear components of a system. By comparing this measure to a measure of linear predictability, one can assess whether...
