Optimality and sub-optimality in a bacterial growth law
Organisms adjust their gene expression to improve fitness in diverse environments. But finding the optimal expression in each environment presents a challenge. We ask how good cells are at finding such optima by studying the control of carbon catabolism genes in Escherichia coli. Bacteria show a growth law: growth rate on different carbon sources declines linearly with the steady-state expressi...
متن کاملOptimality and Sub - Optimality Ofiterative Identification and Controldesign Schemes
We demonstrate that some recently proposed iterative identiication and control design schemes do not necessarily converge to a local minimum of the design objective in the case of a restricted complexity model. There is, however, a link between these approaches and a recently proposed iterative optimization based control design procedure based on experimental data. We show that if the achieved ...
متن کاملSub-optimality Approximations
The sub-optimality approximation problem considers an optimization problem O, its optimal solution σ∗, and a variable x with domain {d1, . . . , dm} and returns approximations to O[x← d1], . . . ,O[x← dm], where O[x← d1] denotes the problem O with x assigned to di. The sub-optimality approximation problem is at the core of online stochastic optimization algorithms and it can also be used for so...
متن کاملOptimality and Sub-optimality of PCA for Spiked Random Matrices and Synchronization
A central problem of random matrix theory is to understand the eigenvalues of ‘spiked’ or ‘deformed’ random matrix models, in which a prominent eigenvector (or ‘spike’) is planted into a random matrix. These distributions form natural statistical models for principal component analysis (PCA) problems throughout the sciences. Baik, Ben Arous, and Péché [2005] showed that the spiked Wishart ensem...
متن کاملThe (sub-)optimality of the majority rule
We consider collective choice from two alternatives. Ex ante, each agent is uncertain about which alternative she prefers, and may be uncertain about the intensity of her preferences. An environment is given by a probability distribution over preference-profiles that is symmetric across agents and neutral across alternatives. In many environments, the majority voting rule maximizes agents’ ex-a...
