Supporting top-k queries over distributed collections of schemaless XML data poses two challenges. While XML supports expressive query languages such as XPath and XQuery, these la...
Background: Eukaryotic cells have developed mechanisms to respond to external environmental or physiological changes (stresses). In order to increase the activities of stress-prot...
Many important problems involve clustering large datasets. Although naive implementations of clustering are computationally expensive, there are established efficient techniques f...
Background: A transcriptional regulatory module (TRM) is a set of genes that is regulated by a common set of transcription factors (TFs). By organizing the genome into TRMs, a liv...
Background: The availability of various "omics" datasets creates a prospect of performing the study of genomewide genetic regulatory networks. However, one of the major ...
