We describe a novel hardware architecture for genomic and proteomic sequence alignment which achieves a speed-up of two to three orders of magnitude over Smith-Waterman dynamic pr...
: In biological sequence analysis, position specific scoring matrices (PSSMs) are widely used to represent sequence motifs. In this paper, we present a new nonheuristic algorithm, ...

: Partially-observable Markov decision processes provide a very general model for decision-theoretic planning problems, allowing the trade-offs between various courses of actions t...
We develop a new motion planning algorithm for a variant of a Dubins car with binary left/right steering and apply it to steerable needles, a new class of flexible beveltip medica...
