High-throughput sequencing of DNA molecules has revolutionized biomedical research by enabling the quantitative analysis of the genome to study its function, structure and dynamics. It is driving sequencing-based experiments in life sciences as evidenced b ...
The intrinsic high entropy metadata, known as quality scores, are largely the cause of the substantial size of sequence data files. Yet, there is no consensus on a viable reduction of the resolution of the quality score scale, arguably because of collatera ...
Cloaking via transformation optics was introduced by Pendry, Schurig, and Smith for the
Maxwell system and Leonhardt in the geometric optics setting. They used a singular change
of variables which blows up a point into a cloaked region. The same transforma ...
A RNA interference, also called a gene knockdown, is a biological technique which consists of inhibiting a targeted gene in a cell. By doing so, one can identify statistical dependencies between a gene and a cell phenotype. However, during such a gene inhi ...
We present and analyze a novel wavelet-Fourier technique for the numerical treatment of multidimensional advection–diffusion–reaction equations based on the COmpRessed SolvING (CORSING) paradigm. Combining the Petrov–Galerkin technique with the compressed ...
The diffusion strategy for distributed learning from streaming data employs local stochastic gradient updates along with exchange of iterates over neighborhoods. In this work we establish that agents cluster around a network centroid in the mean-fourth sen ...
We study jump-penalized estimators based on least absolute deviations which are often referred to as Potts estimators. They are estimators for a parsimonious piecewise constant representation of noisy data having a noise distribution which has heavier tail ...
Driven by the need to solve increasingly complex optimization problems in signal processing and machine learning, recent years have seen rising interest in the behavior of gradient-descent based algorithms in non-convex environments. Most of the works on d ...
Driven by the need to solve increasingly complex optimization problems in signal processing and machine learning, there has been increasing interest in understanding the behavior of gradient-descent algorithms in non-convex environments. Most available wor ...
In a typical video rate allocation problem, the objective is to optimally distribute a source rate budget among a set of (in)dependently coded data units to minimize the total distortion. Conventional Lagrangian approaches convert the lone rate constraint ...
