Background: In order to compute pattern statistics in computational biology a Markov model is commonly used to take into account the sequence composition. Usually its parameter mu...
We investigate the problem of learning a widely-used latent-variable model – the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) or “topic” model – using distributed computation, where ...

Algorithms and computational complexity measures for simulating the motion of contacting bodies with friction are presented. The bodies are restricted to be perfectly rigid bodies...
End-to-end distortion estimation plays an important role in error-resilient video coding. The intuitive method is to simulate the decoding process many times at the encoder, as use...
Likelihood-based marginal regression modelling for repeated, or otherwise clustered, categorical responses is computationally demanding. This is because the number of measures nee...
