We present a framework for generating procedure summaries that are precise -- applying the summary in a given context yields the same result as re-analyzing the procedure in that ...
Currently, large-scale projects are underway to perform whole genome disease association studies. Such studies involve the genotyping of hundreds of thousands of SNP markers. One o...
Identifying gene clusters, genomic regions that share local similarities in gene organization, is a prerequisite for many different types of genomic analyses, including operon pred...
Biological data, such as gene expression profiles or protein sequences, is often organized in a hierarchy of classes, where the instances assigned to "nearby" classes in...
Most relational query optimizers make use of information about the costs of accessing tuples and data structures on various storage devices. This information can at times be off b...
