Randomness Testing in DNA Samples Laura Jean Champagne Advisor: Gary Davis

Abstract This project examines the randomization of DNA sequences based on current genome sequencing projects. Using computational programs, mainly R and MATLAB, different mathematical tests for randomness are applied to DNA sequences in an attempt to find patterns or other unique properties. DNA sequences used are obtained from the Virtual Library of Genetics.
