Compressive Sensing DNA Microarrays

Compressive Sensing DNA Microarrays

Compressive sensing microarrays (CSMs) are DNA-based sensors that operate using group testing and compressive sensing (CS) principles. In contrast to conventional DNA microarrays, in which each genetic sensor is designed to respond to a single target, in a CSM, each sensor responds to a set of targets. We study the problem of designing CSMs that simultaneously account for both the constraints f...

Michael B. Wakin is the Ben L. Fryrear Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the Colorado School of Mines (CSM). Dr. Wakin received a B.S. in electrical engineering and a B.A. in mathematics in 2000 (summa cum laude), an M.S. in electrical engineering in 2002, and a Ph.D. in electrical engineering in 2007, all from Rice University. He was an NSF...

Compressive Sensing

Compressive sensing is a new type of sampling theory, which predicts that sparse signals and images can be reconstructed from what was previously believed to be incomplete information. As a main feature, efficient algorithms such as l1-minimization can be used for recovery. The theory has many potential applications in signal processing and imaging. This chapter gives an introduction and overvi...

Accurate identification of large numbers of biological agents in a given environment remains an important and challenging research problem. The DNA microarray is one of the most frequently employed technological solutions for microbe detection and classification. It is an array of genetic sensors or spots, each containing a large number of DNA sequences termed probes. Each probe is capable of i...
