Although the DRM standard recommends a distribution of the pilot tones in staggered rows in the OFDM frame, we considered a preamble distribution for the purpose for our method.
Our simulation showed that for the 27 year time frame we considered, the microsatellite FST was not influenced by the mutation rate, if this mutation rate was lower than 10−3 (Fig. S5).
Because times of exposure and symptom onset are rarely reported exactly, the minimum time frame we considered was a one hour range.
As a reference frame, we considered less than 1,000 mRNA molecules per 1 ng of total RNA as a low expression level, between 1,000 and 10,000 as a moderate expression level, and >10,000 as a high expression level.
When using compression on multiple input frames, we consider both individual- and difference-frame methods as described below.
Instead of considering absolute independence between AV frames, we consider a conditional independence assumption that is the coherency of an AV frame can be estimated independent of other frames given a context of a few (K) neighbor frames.
Unlike the previous experiment, which used a time-frequency footprint with the same number of neighbor frequencies and time frames, we consider now that these two values may differ.
The analysis frames we consider are of odd length N = 2H + 1 = 513 samples (the duration, in seconds, of the analysis window being T = N/F s ), with the estimation time 0 set at their center.
To ensure meaningful comparisons of the correlations between spatial firing patterns in linear and planar reference frames, we considered only those bins (1) that were actually visited by the rat in both configurations and (2) in which at least one spike was fired.
