For a large class of examples arising in statistical physics known as attractive spin systems (e.g., the Ising model), one seeks to sample from a probability distribution π on an...
—Approximating ideal program outputs is a common technique for solving computationally difficult problems, for adhering to processing or timing constraints, and for performance ...

Background: Existing hidden Markov model decoding algorithms do not focus on approximately identifying the sequence feature boundaries. Results: We give a set of algorithms to com...
We consider the problem of pricing items so as to maximize the profit made from selling these items. An instance is given by a set E of n items and a set of m clients, where each c...
