Passive Filters01:27

Passive Filters

1.0K
Passive filters are utilized to shape the frequency spectrum of signals across a diverse array of applications. These filters, using only passive elements like resistors (R), inductors (L), and capacitors (C), are capable of selectively allowing or blocking certain frequency ranges without the need for external power sources.
Low-Pass Filters
Low-pass filters are designed to transmit signals with frequencies lower than the cutoff frequency, ωc, and attenuate those above it. The cutoff...

Active Filters01:25

Active Filters

1.3K
Active filters are electronic circuits that use operational amplifiers (op-amps), resistors, and capacitors to filter out unwanted frequency components from a signal. A first-order low-pass active filter is designed to pass signals with a frequency lower than a certain cutoff frequency and attenuate frequencies higher than that cutoff frequency. The transfer function for a first-order low-pass active filter is:

Protein Complex Assembly

16.8K
Proteins can form homomeric complexes with another unit of the same protein or heteromeric complexes with different types.  Most protein complexes self-assemble spontaneously via ordered pathways, while some proteins need assembly factors that guide their proper assembly. Despite the crowded intracellular environment, proteins usually interact with their correct partners and form functional complexes.
Many viruses self-assemble into a fully functional unit using the infected host cell to...

Consider a system comprising several point masses. The coordinates of the center of mass for this system can be expressed as the summation of the product of each mass and its position vector divided by the total mass:

Protein Complexes with Interchangeable Parts

2.9K
Groups of proteins may form a complex where each protein in this complex has a different role in the overall execution of the complex’s function. Often some of the proteins in the complex can be replaced by a closely related variant to give a complex that contains many of the same components yet is functionally distinct.
The SCF ubiquitin ligase is a protein complex of five individual proteins. This complex attaches ubiquitin to other target proteins to mark them for degradation. In order...

Area of Science:

  • Computational Biology
  • Cardiac Electrophysiology Modeling

Background:

  • Current human atrial tissue electrophysiology models rely on detailed cellular measurements, often representing a single tissue state.
  • Complex biophysical models are difficult to adapt for dynamic, subject-specific, or disorder-varied electrophysiological properties.
  • There is a need for simpler, yet accurate and tractable models for case-specific simulations and reproductions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a parameter estimation scheme for phenomenological cardiac models using a targeted behavior from complex models.
  • To propose and assess an algorithm incorporating the extended Kalman filter (EKF) for parameter optimization.
  • To compare the EKF's performance against particle swarm optimization (PSO) and sequential quadratic programming (SQP) in terms of robustness and adaptability.

Main Methods:

  • A parameter estimation scheme was developed for a phenomenological cardiac model.
  • The extended Kalman filter (EKF) algorithm was integrated into the parameter estimation scheme.
  • Performance was evaluated by reproducing action potential (AP) waveforms and AP duration (APD) restitution curves for various atrial fibrillation (AF) remodeling states and stimulus protocols, including simulations of 2D wavefront propagation.

Main Results:

  • Particle swarm optimization (PSO) showed superior performance in fitting AP waveforms compared to EKF and SQP.
  • The extended Kalman filter (EKF) demonstrated the best accuracy when considering both AP waveforms and APD restitution curves.
  • EKF yielded more accurate spiral wave reentry simulations and overall superior performance in robustness and adaptability.

Conclusions:

  • The extended Kalman filter (EKF) algorithm provides a robust and adaptable approach for parameter estimation in phenomenological cardiac models.
  • EKF offers superior accuracy for multiscale evaluations, including APD restitution and wavefront propagation, crucial for simulating complex electrophysiological behaviors like those in atrial fibrillation (AF).
  • This method facilitates the creation of simpler, yet biophysically accurate models for case-specific simulations.
