Accurate Computation of Likelihoods in the Coalescent with Recombination Via Parsimony
Understanding the variation of recombination rates across a given genome is crucial for disease gene mapping and for detecting signatures of selection, to name just a couple of app...

A Hidden Markov Model for Predicting Transmembrane Helices in Protein Sequences
A novel method to model and predict the location and orientation of alpha helices in membrane- spanning proteins is presented. It is based on a hidden Markov model (HMM) with an a...

The Utility of Affect in the Selection of Actions and Goals Under Real-World Constraints
We present a novel affective goal selection mechanism for decision-making in agents with limited computational resources (e.g., such as robots operating under real-time constraint...

Learning with Mixtures of Trees
This paper describes the mixtures-of-trees model, a probabilistic model for discrete multidimensional domains. Mixtures-of-trees generalize the probabilistic trees of Chow and Liu...

DNA sequence evolution with neighbor-dependent mutation
We introduce a model of DNA sequence evolution which can account for biases in mutation rates that depend on the identity of the neighboring bases. An analytic solution for this c...
