—We present an information retrieval model for combining evidence from concept-based semantics, term statistics, and context for improving search precision of genomics literature...
We investigate the runtime of a Binary Particle Swarm Optimizer (PSO) for optimizing pseudo-Boolean functions f : {0, 1}n → R. The Binary PSO maintains a swarm of particles sear...
It is desirable to store data on data storage servers such as mail servers and file servers in encrypted form to reduce security and privacy risks. But this usually implies that ...
Monte-Carlo evaluation consists in estimating a position by averaging the outcome of several random continuations, and can serve as an evaluation function at the leaves of a min-ma...
Similarity search is a fundamental operation for applications that deal with unstructured data sources. In this paper we propose a new pivot-based method for similarity search, ca...
