Accurate Solution to Overdetermined Linear Equations with Errors Using L1 Norm Minimization

It has been known for many years that a robust solution to an overdetermined system of linear equations Ax b is obtained by minimizing the L1 norm of the residual error. A correct solution x to the linear system can often be obtained in this way, in spite of large errors (outliers) in some elements of the (m × n) matrix A and the data vector b. This is in contrast to a least squares solution, where even one large error will typically cause a large error in x. In this paper we give necessary and sufficient conditions that the correct solution is obtained when there are some errors in A and b. Based on the sufficient condition, it is shown that if k rows of [A b] contain large errors, the correct solution is guaranteed if (m – n)/n 2k/, where > 0, is a lower bound of singular values related to A. Since m typically represents the number of measurements, this inequality shows how many data points are needed to guarantee a correct solution in the presence of large errors in some of the data. This inequality is, in fact, an upper bound, and computational results are presented, which show that the correct solution will be obtained, with high probability, for much smaller values of m – n.     

Noise Stability of SIS Receivers

There is a strong interest in the submillimeter astronomy community to increase the IF bandwidth of SIS receivers in order to better facilitate broad spectral linewidth and continuum observations of extragalactic sources. However, with an increase in receiver IF bandwidth there is a decrease in the mixer stability. This in turn effects the integration efficiency and quality of the measurement. In order to better understand the noise mechanisms responsible for reducing the receiver stability, we employed a technique first described by D.W. Allan and later elaborated upon by Schieder et al. In this paper we address a variety of factors that degrade the noise stability of SIS receivers. The goal of this exercise is to make recommendations aimed at maximizing SIS receiver stability.     

Calculating Helix-to-Coil Transitions of Duplexes Formed by Phenazine-Conjugated Oligonucleotide, Using Flourescence Melting Data

A novel intercalating phenazine derivative (Pzn) was covalently linked to the 3-end of decathymidylate via a ribose residue of the dye. A fluorescence technique was used to study double helix formation by this conjugate with poly(rA) in aqueous solutions of neutral pH, at the presence of 0.1 and 1 M sodium ions. Proportionality between thermally induced changes in the fluorescence intensity of the free conjugate and bound one was revealed, that made it possible to calculate the helix-to-coil transition from fluorescence melting data using a simple equation. The transition curves were found to be in well conformity with those constructed from absorption measurements. It was shown that the attachment of Pzn significantly enhanced the stability of poly(rA) · (dT)₁₀ duplex due to intercalation of the dye chromophore into the adenine strand. The temperature of half-dissociation was increased by 12°C, and the stabilizing increment of standard free energy was 3.2–3.6 kcal/mol at 37°C.
