Frequency spectra and the color of cellular noise.

ABSTRACT: The invention of the Fourier integral in the 19th century laid the foundation for modern spectral analysis methods. This integral decomposes a temporal signal into its frequency components, providing deep insights into its generating process. While this idea has precipitated several scientific and technological advances, its impact has been fairly limited in cell biology, largely due to the difficulties in connecting the underlying noisy intracellular networks to the frequency content of observed single-cell trajectories. Here we develop a spectral theory and computational methodologies tailored specifically to the computation and analysis of frequency spectra of noisy intracellular networks. Specifically, we develop a method to compute the frequency spectrum for general nonlinear networks
