Background: Ranked gene lists from microarray experiments are usually analysed by assigning significance to predefined gene categories, e.g., based on functional annotations. Tool...
—In this paper, we discuss how to prevent users’ passwords from being stolen by adversaries. We propose differentiated security mechanisms in which a user has the freedom to ch...

Genetic Algorithm (GA) is known as a potent multiobjective optimization method, and the effectiveness of hybridizing it with local search (LS) has recently been reported in the li...
Consider a convex set P in IRd and a piecewise polynomial concave function F: P IR. Let A be an algorithm that given a point x IRd computes F(x) if x P, or returns a concave po...
We present an interior-point penalty method for nonlinear programming (NLP), where the merit function consists of a piecewise linear penalty function (PLPF) and an 2-penalty functi...
