Bluetooth standard allows the creation of piconets, with one node serving as its master and up to seven nodes serving as slaves. A Bluetooth ad hoc network can also be formed by in...
The usual data mining setting uses the full amount of data to derive patterns for different purposes. Taking cues from machine learning techniques, we explore ways to divide the d...
In gene expression microarray data analysis, selecting a small number of discriminative genes from thousands of genes is an important problem for accurate classification of diseas...
