Abstract

A method uses linear prediction analysis to define a first structure factor component for a first reflection from x-ray crystallography data. The x-ray crystallography data includes a set of cognizable reflections. The method includes expressing the first structure factor component as a first linear equation in which the first structure factor component is equal to a sum of a first plurality of terms. Each term includes a product of (1) a structure factor component for a cognizable reflection from the x-ray crystallography data, wherein the cognizable reflection has a separation in reciprocal space from the first reflection, and (2) a linear prediction coefficient corresponding to the separation between the cognizable reflection and the first reflection. The method further includes calculating values for the linear prediction coefficients. The method further includes substituting the values for the linear prediction coefficients into the first linear equation, thereby defining the first structure factor component for the first reflection.
