Background: With the completion of the Human Genome Project and recent advancements in mutation detection technologies, the volume of data available on genetic variations has rise...
Background: It has been repeatedly observed that gene order is rapidly lost in prokaryotic genomes. However, persistent synteny blocks are found when comparing more or less distan...
Background: Similarity inference, one of the main bioinformatics tasks, has to face an exponential growth of the biological data. A classical approach used to cope with this data ...
Background: Data clustering is a powerful technique for identifying data with similar characteristics, such as genes with similar expression patterns. However, not all implementat...
In this work we present a backjumping technique for Disjunctive Logic Programming (DLP) under the Answer Set Semantics. It builds upon related techniques that had originally been p...
