We propose a method for finding seeds for the local alignment of two nucleotide sequences. Our method uses randomized algorithms to find approximate seeds. We present a dynamic ...
While recent research has advanced our understanding about the structure and dynamics of social tagging systems, we know little about (i) the underlying motivations for tagging (w...
The emergence of multicore processors has increased the need for simple parallel programming models usable by nonexperts. The ability to specify subparts of a bigger data structur...
The area under an ROC curve (AUC) is a criterion used in many applications to measure the quality of a classification algorithm. However, the objective function optimized in most...
In cellular telephone systems, an important problem is to dynamically allocate the communication resource channels so as to maximize service in a stochastic caller environment. Th...
