MS4 - Multi-Scale Selector of Sequence Signatures: An alignment-free method for classification of biological sequences
Background: While multiple alignment is the first step of usual classification schemes for biological sequences, alignment-free methods are being increasingly used as alternatives...

The Ricean Objection: An Analogue of Rice's Theorem for First-order Theories
We propose here an extension of Rice's Theorem to first-order logic, proven by totally elementary means. If P is any property defined over the collection of all first-order t...

Privacy-aware regression modeling of participatory sensing data
Many participatory sensing applications use data collected by participants to construct a public model of a system or phenomenon. For example, a health application might compute a...

What makes a good model of natural images?
Many low-level vision algorithms assume a prior probability over images, and there has been great interest in trying to learn this prior from examples. Since images are very non G...

On the geometry of graphs with a forbidden minor
We study the topological simplification of graphs via random embeddings, leading ultimately to a reduction of the Gupta-Newman-Rabinovich-Sinclair (GNRS) L1 embedding conjecture t...
