Abstract
We propose a general method for optimally approximating an arbitrary matrix M by a structured matrix T (circulant, Toeplitz/Hankel, etc.) and examine its use for estimating the spectra of genomic linkage disequilibrium matrices. This application is prototypical of a variety of genomic and proteomic problems that demand robustness to incomplete biosequence information. We perform a simulation study and corroborative test of our method using real genomic data from the Mouse Genome Database [1]. The results confirm the predicted utility of the method and provide strong evidence of its potential value to a wide range of bioinformatics applications. Our optimal general matrix approximation method is expected to be of independent interest to an even broader range of applications in applied mathematics and engineering.
期刊介绍:
IEEE/ACM Transactions on Computational Biology and Bioinformatics emphasizes the algorithmic, mathematical, statistical and computational methods that are central in bioinformatics and computational biology; the development and testing of effective computer programs in bioinformatics; the development of biological databases; and important biological results that are obtained from the use of these methods, programs and databases; the emerging field of Systems Biology, where many forms of data are used to create a computer-based model of a complex biological system
