When aligning biological sequences, the choice of parameter values for the alignment scoring function is critical. Small changes in gap penalties, for example, can yield radically ...
Complex information systems have numerous design variables that are systematically decided upon during the design process. In high-variability systems, some of these decisions are...
We observe that ranking systems—a theoretical framework for web page ranking and collaborative filtering introduced by Altman and Tennenholtz—and tournament solutions—a well...
To support real-time computation with large, possibly evolving point clouds and range data, we fit a trimmed uniform tensor-product spline function from one direction. The graph ...
Recent efforts attempt to combine together information of different passive methods. Critical issues in this research are the choice of data and how to combine such data in order ...
