We introduce a facility location problem with submodular facility cost functions, and give an O(log n) approximation algorithm for it. Then we focus on a special case of submodula...
We investigate how a niching based evolutionary algorithm fares on the BBOB function test set, knowing that most problems are not very well suited to this algorithm class. However...
Various data mining applications involve data objects of multiple types that are related to each other, which can be naturally formulated as a k-partite graph. However, the resear...

Weighted graph matching is a good way to align a pair of shapes represented by a set of descriptive local features; the set of correspondences produced by the minimum cost matchin...
The mechanism of gene regulation has been studied intensely for decades. It is important to identify synergistic transcriptional motifs. Its search space is so large that an effici...
