In this discourse, we use the tools of molecular biology to demonstrate the theoretical encoding of Strassen’s fast matrix multiplication algorithm with DNA based on an n-moduli set in the residue number system, thereby demonstrating the viability of computational mathematics with DNA. As a result, a general scalable implementation of this model in the DNA computing paradigm is presented and can be generalized to the application of all fast matrix multiplication algorithms on a DNA computer. We also discuss the practical capabilities and issues of this scalable implementation. Fast methods of matrix computations with DNA are important because they also allow for the efficient implementation of other algorithms (that is inversion, computing determinants, and graph theory) with DNA. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 Key words: DNA computing, residue number system, logic and arithmetic operations, Strassen algorithm.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125419955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such asymmetries may be associated with different mutational rates in two principal factors. The first one is transcription-coupled repair and the second one is the selective pressure related to optimization of the translation efficiency. The former factor affects both coding and noncoding regions of a gene, while the latter factor is applicable only to the coding regions. Compositional asymmetries calculated at the third position of a codon in coding (exons) and noncoding (introns, UTR, upstream and downstream) regions of human genes are compared. It is shown that the keto-skew (excess of the frequencies of G and T nucleotides over the frequencies of A and C nucleotides in the same strand) is most pronounced in intronic regions, less pronounced in coding regions, and has near zero values in untranscribed regions. The keto-skew correlates with the level of gene expression in germ-line cells in both introns and exons. We propose to use the results of our analysis to estimate the contribution of different evolutionary factors to the transcription-related compositional biases.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126233476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pathway activation arises when production of a certain biomolecule is required due to changing environmental conditions. Under the premise that biological systems have been optimized through evolutionary processes, a biologically meaningful optimal control problem is posed. In this setup, the enzyme concentrations are assumed to be time dependent and constrained by a limited overall enzyme production capacity, while the optimization criterion accounts for both time and resource usage. \u0000Using geometric arguments we establish the bang-bang nature of the solution and reveal that each reaction must be sequentially activated in the same order as they appear in the pathway. The results hold for a broad range of enzyme dynamics which includes, but is not limited to, Mass Action, Michaelis-Menten and Hill Equation kinetics.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124441021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examine performance of the ME filter through frequency and noise variance analysis and compare it with other well known filters developed in the EEG studies. The results show the ME filters to outperform others. Although we only demonstrate a filter design especially for second order derivative of EEG data, these studies still shed an informatic approach of systematically designing a filter for specific purposes.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116851935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show that taking as a starting point the assumption that the sources lie in the general area of the auditory cortex (an area of about 40 mm by 15 mm), our approach is capable of achieving reasonable success in pinpointing active sources concentrated in an area of a few mm's across, while limiting the spatial distribution and number of false positives.","PeriodicalId":119149,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Quantitative Methods","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114577474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
