Method for quantifying amplitude of a response of a biological network

One or more measurement signatures are derived from a knowledge base of casual biological facts, where a signature is a collection of measured node entities and their expected directions of change with respect to a reference node. The knowledge base may be a directed network of experimentally-observed casual relationships among biological entities and processes, and a reference node represents a perturbation. A degree of activation of a signature is then assessed by scoring one or more “differential” data sets against the signature to compute an amplitude score.

In one particular embodiment, the amplitude score is a weighted average of adjusted log-fold changes of measured node entities in the signature, wherein an adjustment applied to the log-fold changes is based on their expected direction of change. In an alternative embodiment, the amplitude score is based on quantity effects.

Production of diffraction limited holographic images

An apparatus for the production of a holographic image of a subject disposed at a subject plane includes a source of coherent light divided by a beamsplitter into a reference beam and a subject beam. The subject beam is directed towards the subject through a beamsplitter and a quarter-wave plate. The front surface of an opaque subject or a mirror behind a transparent subject reflects the subject beam back through the quarter-wave plate to the beamsplitter where it is deflected towards a photo-sensitive recording medium through an imaging lens. The reference beam is simultaneously directed toward the recording medium at a predetermined angle of incidence. After exposure and development of the medium, it is illuminated from the conjugate direction by the redirected reference beam. Image rays exactly retrace their original paths back through the optical system and provide a three-dimensional real-image reconstruction at the subject plane. The images produced may be microscopically examined or studied through optical processing and interferrometric techniques. A method utilizing the above-described apparatus is also disclosed.

Optical associative identification device

Active multi-stage cavity sensor

In accordance with the present invention, an optical sensing device and method are provided for processing with extremely low energy requirements. Spontaneous emissions from an excited optical gain medium generate a propagating waveform. Either a spatial modulator or the pattern under investigation modulates the optical wavefront generated by the fluorescing gain medium to impose a first spatial pattern thereon. When the first spatial pattern imposed on the wavefront has duality with another spatial pattern imposed by the other of the pattern under investigation or the SLM, light is directed back along pathways through a cavity defined by the gain medium, a reflector, the SLM, and the object under investigation to induce stimulated emission and eventually resonance in the cavity.

Optical correlation employing an optical bit delay

This invention relates to a pattern recognition correlator and method for correlating input data with one or more reference patterns. The input data 2, which may be for instance digital amplitude modulated optical data, is used to modulate 6 an optical signal 8 to form a phase modulated optical signal. This temporal phase modulated optical signal is then converted into a spatial optical phase pattern, preferably through use of an optical delay, 141 ... 14N and incident on a reference spatial phase pattern displayed on an optical phase modulator 18, such as an SLM. When there is a correlation between the input data spatial phase pattern and the reference spatial phase pattern the emerging wavefront is plane and can be strongly focussed 20 to a point detector 22. In the absence of correlation the emergent wavefront is not plane and so is not focussed as strongly to the detector. The detector output can therefore be used as an indication of correlation.
