Abstract:

The pupose of this paper is modeling of Partial Digest Problem (PDP) as a mathematical programming problem. In this paper we present a new viewpoint of PDP. We formulate the PDP as a continuous optimization problem and develope a method to solve this problem. Finally we constract a linear programming model for the problem with an additional constraint. This later model can be solved by the simplex method in which a restricted basis-entry-rule is defined.

Modeling of Partial Digest Problem as a Network flows problem

Restriction Site Mapping is one of the interesting tasks in Computational Biology. A DNA strand can be thought of as a string on the letters A, T, C, and G. When a particular restriction enzyme is added to a DNA solution, the DNA is cut at particular restriction sites. The goal of the restriction site mapping is to determine the location of every site for a given enzyme. In partial digest metho...

Combinatorial optimization in DNA mapping - a computational thread of the Simplified Partial Digest Problem

In the paper, the problem of the genome mapping of DNA molecules, is presented. In particular, the new approach — the Simplified Partial Digest Problem (SPDP), is analyzed. This approach, although easy in laboratory implementation and robust with respect to measurement errors, when formulated in terms of a combinatorial search problem, is proved to be strongly NP-hard for the general errorfree ...

The Simplified Partial Digest Problem: Hardness and a Probabilistic Analysis

Introduction We study the problem of genome mapping using restriction site analysis. In restriction site analysis, an enzyme cuts a target DNA strand into DNA fragments, and these DNA fragments are used to reconstruct the restriction site locations of the enzyme. Two common approaches are the Double Digest Problem and the Partial Digest Problem. The Double Digest Problem is known to be NP-Compl...

The simplified partial digest problem: Approximation and a graph-theoretic model

The goal of the Simplified Partial Digest Problem (SPDP) is motivated by the reconstruction of the linear structure of a DNA chain with respect to a given nucleotide pattern, based on the multiset of distances between the adjacent patterns (interpoint distances) and the multiset of distances between each pattern and the two unlabeled endpoints of the DNA chain (end distances). We consider optim...

Noisy Data Make the Partial Digest Problem NP - hardTECHNICAL

The Partial Digest problem { well-known for its applications in computational biology and for the intriguingly open status of its computational complexity { asks for the coordinates of n points on a line such that the pairwise distances of the points form a given multi-set of ? n 2 distances. In an eeort to model real-life data, we study the computational complexity of a minimization version of...
