EE376A/STATS376A Information Theory Lecture 13 - 02/20/2018 Lecture 13: Method of Types Lecturer: Tsachy Weissman Scribe: Fang Cai, Rob Jones, Yi Sun, Can Wang In last lecture we framed the problem of lossy compression and gave the main theorem that characterizes the tradeo between the rate and the distortion in the context of lossy compression. With that as our motivation, this week we are going to talk about the method of types, expand our tools related to typical sequences, the notion of strong typicality and the notion of conditional types, which are not only interesting in their own right, but ...

NPTEL – Bio Technology – Genetic Engineering & Applications MODULE 5- LECTURE 1 GENE TRANSFER TECHNIQUES: BIOLOGICAL METHODS 5-1.1. Introduction The main gene transfer methods using biological means are as follows: • Bacterial gene delivery i.e. bactofection. • Delivery using a viral vector i.e. transduction 5-1.2. Bactofection It is a method of direct gene transfer using bacteria into the target cell, tissue, organ or organism. Various bacterial strains that can be used as vectors in gene therapy are listed in Table 5-1.2. The genes located on the plasmids of the transformed bacterial strains are ...
