Background: There are many important clustering questions in computational biology for which no satisfactory method exists. Automated clustering algorithms, when applied to large,...
Efficiency enhancement techniques--such as parallelization and hybridization--are among the most important ingredients of practical applications of genetic and evolutionary algori...
In the past few years, Rapid Thermal Processes (RTP) have gained acceptance as mainstream technology for semi-conductors manufacturing. These processes are characterized by a sing...
This paper presents a system for rapid editing of highly dynamic motion capture data. At the heart of this system is an optimization algorithm that can transform the captured moti...
It has been conjectured that in a braid group, or more generally in a Garside group, applying any sequence of monotone equivalences and word reversings can increase the length of a...
