The GENIES program is a stand alone code, with an easy to use graphical interface that performs the following tasks:
a) it loads up two genome files (original and mutated);
b) it computes the information entropy spectrum of each genome;
c) it computes the information entropy ratio spectrum;
d) it extracts the number of mutations identified, their index location and then it saves all the data including the spectra;
e) in addition, the program performs a base point to base point comparison of the two genomes to detect the mutations via direct comparison.
The function e) is very important to check the proposed methodology and to facilitate its calibration for predictions of fut
