We developed a new approach for the reconstruction of phylogenetic trees using ant colony optimization metaheuristics.Atree is constructed using a fully connected graph and the pro...
The geometric features of images, such as edges, are difficult to represent. When a redundant transform is used for their extraction, the compression challenge is even more dif...
Database columns are often correlated, so that cardinality estimates computed by assuming independence often lead to a poor choice of query plan by the optimizer. Multidimensional...

We show a remarkable fact about folding paper: From a single rectangular sheet of paper, one can fold it into a flat origami that takes the (scaled) shape of any connected polygo...
