Abstract

Microarrays are used for collecting information about a large number of different genomic particles simultaneously. Conventional fluorescent-based microarrays acquire data after the hybridization phase. During this phase, the target analytes (e.g., DNA fragments) bind to the capturing probes on the array and, by the end of it, supposedly reach a steady state. Therefore, conventional microarrays attempt to detect and quantify the targets with a single data point taken in the steady state. On the other hand, a novel technique, the so-called real-time microarray, capable of recording the kinetics of hybridization in fluorescent-based microarrays has recently been proposed. The richness of the information obtained therein promises higher signal-to-noise ratio, smaller estimation error, and broader assay detection dynamic range compared to conventional microarrays. In this paper, we study the signal processing aspects of the real-time microarray system design. In particular, we develop a probabilistic model for real-time microarrays and describe a procedure for the estimation of target amounts therein. Moreover, leveraging on system identification ideas, we propose a novel technique for the elimination of cross hybridization. These are important steps toward developing optimal detection algorithms for real-time microarrays, and to understanding their fundamental limitations.
