SEQUENTIAL INFORMATION RETRIEVAL
First Claim
1. A method of retrieving sequential information from a dataset including one or more existing sequences, the method comprising:
- receiving a query sequence representing a sequence against which the one or more existing sequences in the dataset is compared;
adding the query sequence to the dataset;
creating a dotplot of the sequences in the dataset including the query sequence; and
determining whether any of the one or more existing sequences match the query sequence based on the dotplot.

Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for retrieving sequential information from a dataset. More specifically, retrieving sequential information from a dataset including one or more existing sequences can comprise receiving a query sequence representing a sequence against which the one or more existing sequences in the dataset is compared. The query sequence can be added to the dataset and a dotplot of the sequences in the dataset including the query sequence can be created. A determination can be made as to whether any of the one or more existing sequences match the query sequence based on the dotplot. For example, determining whether any of the one or more existing sequences match the query sequence based on the dotplot can comprise performing a line fitting process such as a regression-based line fitting process.

9. A system comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory communicatively coupled with and readable by the processor and having stored therein a series of instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to retrieve sequential information from a dataset including one or more existing sequences by receiving a query sequence representing a sequence against which the one or more existing sequences in the dataset is compared, adding the query sequence to the dataset, creating a dotplot of the sequences in the dataset including the query sequence, and determining whether any of the one or more existing sequences match the query sequence based on the dotplot. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
