Implementation of DNA Pattern Recognition in Turing Machines

Pattern recognition is the act of taking in raw data and taking an action based on the category of the pattern. DNA pattern recognition has applications in almost any field. It has applications in forensics, genetic engineering, bio informatics, DNA nanotechnology, history and so on. The size of the DNA molecules can be very large that it is a tedious task to perform pattern recognition for the same using common techniques. Hence this paper describes the pattern recognition for DNA molecules using the concept of Turing Machines. It also performs a simulation of the standard Turing Machine that performs DNA pattern recognition on the Universal Turing Machine.
