Abstract. We develop a probabilistic interpretation of non-linear component extraction in neural networks that activate their hidden units according to a softmaxlike mechanism. On ...
Abstract. Region-based memory management is a form of compiletime memory management, well-known from the functional programming world. This paper describes a static region analysis...
We present a new machine learning approach to the inverse parametric sequence alignment problem: given as training examples a set of correct pairwise global alignments, find the p...
In this paper, we consider the problem of partitioning a small data sample drawn from a mixture of k product distributions. We are interested in the case that individual features a...

When aligning biological sequences, the choice of parameter values for the alignment scoring function is critical. Small changes in gap penalties, for example, can yield radically ...
