The performance of many supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms is very sensitive to the choice of an appropriate distance metric. Previous work in metric learning and ada...
Background: Large-scale sequence comparison is a powerful tool for biological inference in modern molecular biology. Comparing new sequences to those in annotated databases is a u...
The time required to simulate a complete benchmark program using the cycle-accurate model of a microprocessor can be prohibitively high. One of the proposed methodologies, represe...
Abstract--For the management of a virtual P2P supercomputer one is interested in subgroups of processors that can communicate with each other efficiently. The task of finding these...
Drawing on the correspondence between the graph Laplacian, the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a manifold, and the connections to the heat equation, we propose a geometrically motiva...
