Abstract. We analyse the mixing time of Markov chains using path coupling with stopping times. We apply this approach to two hypergraph problems. We show that the Glauber dynamics ...
Reconstruction of phylogenetic trees is a fundamental problem in computational biology. While excellent heuristic methods are available for many variants of this problem, new adva...

In the square linear blind source separation problem, one must nd a linear unmixing operator which can detangle the result xi(t) of mixing n unknown independent sources si(t) thro...
The use of frequent itemsets has been limited by the high computational cost as well as the large number of resulting itemsets. In many real-world scenarios, however, it is often ...
—This paper describes an evolutionary music composition system that combines trainable music critics with a bag of notes constraint. Unlike many evolutionary composition systems,...
