Background: Support Vector Machines (SVMs) ? using a variety of string kernels ? have been successfully applied to biological sequence classification problems. While SVMs achieve ...
In situ staining of a target mRNA at several time points during the development of a D. melanogaster embryo gives one a detailed spatio-temporal view of the expression pattern of ...
Random sampling is an appealing approach to build synopses of large data streams because random samples can be used for a broad spectrum of analytical tasks. Users are often inter...
