  abstract = {Mutual information is a concept that is relevant to similarity-based database search, e.g. the search of homologous items in a DNA or protein sequence bank. It is defined as the theoretical information that a given query object contains about the target ones. Here we compute this parameter for DNA sequences, using Fourier transform techniques.}
