Chaining fragments is a crucial step in genome alignment. Existing chaining algorithms compute a maximum weighted chain with no overlaps allowed between adjacent fragments. In prac...
A distinction is usually made between wavelet bases and wavelet frames. The former are associated with a one-to-one representation of signals, which is somewhat constrained but mos...
The scores returned by support vector machines are often used as a confidence measures in the classification of new examples. However, there is no theoretical argument sustaining ...
We present an efficient "sparse sampling" technique for approximating Bayes optimal decision making in reinforcement learning, addressing the well known exploration vers...

In this paper, we present an improved method for decomposing multivariate polynomials. This problem, also known as the Functional Decomposition Problem (FDP) [17, 9, 27], is class...
