Fractal proteins are an evolvable method of mapping genotype to phenotype through a developmental process, where genes are expressed into proteins comprised of subsets of the Mande...
In this paper we extend the notion of multi-unit combinatorial reverse auction by adding a new dimension to the goods at auction. In such a new type of combinatorial auction a buye...
Modern query optimizers select an efficient join ordering for a physical execution plan based essentially on the average join selectivity factors among the referenced tables. In ...
Genomic maps often do not specify the order within some groups of two or more markers. The synthesis of a master map from several sources introduces additional order ambiguity due ...
We consider the problem of learning mixtures of distributions via spectral methods and derive a tight characterization of when such methods are useful. Specifically, given a mixt...
