The protein folding problem consists of predicting the functional (native) structure of the protein given its linear sequence of amino acids. Despite extensive progress made in un...
The connected facility location (ConFL) problem generalizes the facility location problem and the Steiner tree problem in graphs. Given a graph G = (V, E), a set of customers D ⊆...
We present a novel boosting algorithm where temporal consistency is addressed in a short-term way. Although temporal correlation of observed data may be an important cue for classi...
