报告题目:Identification of rhythmic signals in oscillatory systems with applications to chronobiology

报 告 人:Shyamal Peddada 教授 美国匹兹堡大学

报告地点:数学楼一楼第一报告厅

报告摘要:

There is a growing interest in studying oscillatory systems in a wide range of applications. For example, in pharmacology researchers are interested in understanding circadian clock and estimating the time to peak expression of circadian genes as they may play a critical role in determining optimal time of treatment. Astrophysicists are interested in identifying temporal patterns in the light emitted by stars to classify stars into groups, and so on.  In each of these cases, the fundamental and challenging question of interest is to identify components in the oscillatory system that display a rhythmic pattern. In this talk we describe a very simple and yet a very general framework using constrained statistical inference based methods.  The resulting methodology is robust to the shape of the pattern, thus the method does not limit to cosine type curves. The resulting methodology is applied to some well-known circadian clock data.
