We propose a fast algorithm, EMD-L1, for computing the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) between a pair of histograms. Compared to the original formulation, EMD-L1 has a largely si...
Abstract. Extensions of the randomized tournaments techniques introduced in [6, 7] to approximate solutions of 1-median and diameter computation of finite subsets of general metri...
—DNA matching is a crucial step in sequence alignment. Since sequence alignment is an approximate matching process there is a need for good approximate algorithms. The process of...

Immense amounts of raw instrument data (i.e., images of fluorescence) are currently being generated using ultra high-throughput sequencing platforms. An important computational cha...
This paper describes and demonstrates the e ectiveness of several metrics for data level comparison of direct volume rendering (DVR) algorithms. The focus is not on speed ups from...
