A steepest descent calculation of RNA pseudoknots
We enumerate possible topologies of pseudoknots in single-stranded RNA molecules. We use a steepest-descent approximation in the large N matrix field theory, and a Feynman diagram formalism to describe the resulting pseudoknot structure. An RNA molecule is a heteropolymer strand made up of four types of nucleotides, uracil (U), adenine (A), guanine (G), and cytosine (C). The sequence of these n...
متن کاملSteepest Descent
The steepest descent method has a rich history and is one of the simplest and best known methods for minimizing a function. While the method is not commonly used in practice due to its slow convergence rate, understanding the convergence properties of this method can lead to a better understanding of many of the more sophisticated optimization methods. Here, we give a short introduction and dis...
متن کاملApproximate Steepest Coordinate Descent
We propose a new selection rule for the coordinate selection in coordinate descent methods for huge-scale optimization. The efficiency of this novel scheme is provably better than the efficiency of uniformly random selection, and can reach the efficiency of steepest coordinate descent (SCD), enabling an acceleration of a factor of up to n, the number of coordinates. In many practical applicatio...
متن کاملSteepest descent on factor graphs
x f(x, θ) log f(x, θ) exists for all θ and θ. In principle, one can apply the sum-product algorithm in order to find (1), which involves the following two steps [2]: 1. Determine f(θ) by sum-product message passing. 2. Maximization step: compute θmax △ = argmaxθ f(θ). This procedure is often not feasible, since • When the variable x is continuous, the sum-product rule may lead to intractable in...
متن کاملCalculation of the reaction cross section from a rate constant by the method of steepest-descent.
The reaction cross section of a bimolecular reaction has been calculated from the corresponding rate constant by the inverse Laplace transform. In carrying out the inverse Laplace transform, the method of steepest-descent has been used. As applications, the reaction cross sections for the rate constant of k(T) = k' T(n)e(-E0/kT) and for the rate constant of the absolute reaction rate theory hav...
