Background: A relevant problem in drug design is the comparison and recognition of protein binding sites. Binding sites recognition is generally based on geometry often combined w...
In this paper, we explore fast algorithms for computing on encrypted polynomials. More specifically, we describe efficient algorithms for computing the Discrete Fourier Transform,...
The direct application of standard ranking techniques to retrieve individual elements from a collection of XML documents often produces a result set in which the top ranks are dom...
The task of identifying redundant information in documents that are generated from multiple sources provides a significant challenge for summarization and QA systems. Traditional ...
