Monotonicity is a simple yet significant qualitative characteristic. We consider the problem of segmenting an array in up to K segments. We want segments to be as monotonic as po...
an abstract optimization problem arising from biomolecular sequence analysis. For a sequence A of pairs (ai, wi) for i = 1, . . . , n and wi > 0, a segment A(i, j) is a consecu...
Blurred segments were introduced by Debled-Rennesson et al. [Segmentation of discrete curves into fuzzy segments. In: 9th IWCIA, Electronic notes in discrete mathematics, vol. 12;...
We consider sequential regression of individual sequences under the square error loss. Using a competitive algorithm framework, we construct a sequential algorithm that can achieve...
We discuss the problem of optimally "finishing" a partially sequenced, reconstructed DNA segment. At first sight, this appears to be computationally hard. We construct a...
