We consider how to allocate bandwidth in a multicast tree so as to optimize some global measure of performance. In our model each receiver has a budget to be used for bandwidth res...
We present a simple statistical model of molecular function evolution to predict protein function. The model description encodes general knowledge of how molecular function evolve...

Gene functions is an essential knowledge for understanding how metabolism works and designing treatments for solving malfunctions. The Modular Multi-Relational Framework (MMRF) is ...
A Direct Sum Theorem holds in a model of computation, when for every problem solving some k input instances together is k times as expensive as solving one. We show that Direct Su...
We present a general boosting method extending functional gradient boosting to optimize complex loss functions that are encountered in many machine learning problems. Our approach...
