Many real life sequence databases, such as customer shopping sequences, medical treatment sequences, etc., grow incrementally. It is undesirable to mine sequential patterns from s...
In this paper we provide a fast, data-driven solution to the failing query problem: given a query that returns an empty answer, how can one relax the query's constraints so t...
Understanding the variation of recombination rates across a given genome is crucial for disease gene mapping and for detecting signatures of selection, to name just a couple of app...
Abstract. Asymmetric functional divergence of paralogues is a key aspect of the traditional model of evolution following duplication. If one gene continues to perform the ancestral...
In this paper, we study a novel form of continuous nearest neighbor queries in the presence of obstacles, namely continuous obstructed nearest neighbor (CONN) search. It considers...
