Spatial normalization improves the quality of genotype calling for Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays
Background: Microarray measurements are susceptible to a variety of experimental artifacts, some of which give rise to systematic biases that are spatially dependent in a unique w...

Observing the swarm behaviour during its evolutionary design
Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) can be used for designing Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms that work, in some cases, considerably better than the human-designed ones. By...
