The general problem of answering top-k queries can be modeled using lists of data items sorted by their local scores. The most efficient algorithm proposed so far for answering to...
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are very commonly used as function optimizers, basically due to their search capability. A number of different serial and parallel versions of GA exist. ...
Background: Sustained research on the problem of determining which genes are differentially expressed on the basis of microarray data has yielded a plethora of statistical algorit...
Background: The development, in the last decade, of stochastic heuristics implemented in robust application softwares has made large phylogeny inference a key step in most compara...
