The number of broa.dband three-component seismic stations in southern California. has more tb an tripled recently. In th is study we use the teleseismic receiver function technique to determine the crustal thicknesses and Vp / Vs ratios for th ese stations and map out t he lateral variation of Moho dept h under southern California. It is shown t hat a. receiver function can provide a very good ...

Currently, statistical techniques for analysis of microarray-generated data sets have deficiencies due to limited understanding of errors inherent in the data. A generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) test based on an error model has been recently proposed to identify differentially expressed genes from microarray experiments. However, the use of different error structures under the GLR test has no...

MOTIVATION An important area of research in biochemistry and molecular biology focuses on characterization of enzyme mutants. However, synthesis and analysis of experimental mutants is time consuming and expensive. We describe a machine-learning approach for inferring the activity levels of all unexplored single point mutants of an enzyme, based on a training set of such mutants with experiment...

[1] The seismic structure of the crust and upper mantle of the southwestern United States is examined using receiver functions calculated from teleseismic arrivals recorded in the Colorado Plateau–Rio Grande Rift–Great Plains Seismic Transect (LA RISTRA) experiment. We apply receiver function estimation and filtering methods developed by Wilson and Aster (2005) to produce receiver functions wit...

This paper investigates the problem of multiuser detector (MUD) for direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) system. A radial basis function (RBF) receiver provides the optimum receiver performance. We propose a fuzzy implementation of the RBF receiver. This fuzzy receiver provides considerable computational complexity reduction with respect to RBF receivers. The fuzzy receiver p...

S–P travel-time residuals and receiver-function images are used to infer the Vp/Vs (compressional to shear wave velocity) ratio of the lithospheric mantle beneath southern African and the topography of the underlying 410-km discontinuity. Low Vp/Vs ratios provide evidence independent of geochemical observations for a highly depleted root (Mg#f92–94) beneath the Kaapvaal craton. The receiver-fun...

S U M M A R Y Teleseismic waves can convert from shear to compressional (Sp) or compressional to shear (Ps) across impedance contrasts in the subsurface. Deconvolving the parent waveforms (P for Ps or S for Sp) from the daughter waveforms (S for Ps or P for Sp) generates receiver functions which can be used to analyse velocity structure beneath the receiver. Though a variety of deconvolution te...

So, due to this reason implementation of optimum receiver is very difficult. And this noise(undesirable disturbance) is the sum of Guassian noise and impulsive interference . So, alternate PDF is proposed by many authors which...

By solving the Marchenko equations, the Green’s function can be retrieved between a virtual receiver in the subsurface to points at the surface (no physical receiver is required at the virtual location). We extend the idea of these equations to retrieve the Green’s function between any two points in the subsurface; i.e, between a virtual source and a virtual receiver (no physical source or phys...
