Query expansion is a long-studied approach for improving retrieval effectiveness by enhancing the user's original query with additional related words. Current algorithms for ...
Background: The preprocessing of gene expression data obtained from several platforms routinely includes the aggregation of multiple raw signal intensities to one expression value...
We propose a new dimensionality reduction method, the elastic embedding (EE), that optimises an intuitive, nonlinear objective function of the low-dimensional coordinates of the d...
