The (undirected) Node Connectivity Augmentation (NCA) problem is: given a graph J = (V, EJ ) and connectivity requirements {r(u, v) : u, v ∈ V }, find a minimum size set I of n...
Abstract. A fundamental problem in computational biology is the determination of the correct species tree for a set of taxa given a set of possibly contradictory gene trees. In rec...

This paper presents empirical results that contradict the prevailing opinion that entity extraction is a boring solved problem. In particular, we consider data sets that resemble ...
We study the convergence properties of an alternating proximal minimization algorithm for nonconvex structured functions of the type: L(x, y) = f(x)+Q(x, y)+g(y), where f : Rn → ...
While scalable data mining methods are expected to cope with massive Web data, coping with evolving trends in noisy data in a continuous fashion, and without any unnecessary stopp...
