Many applications in analytical domains often have the need to "connect the dots" i.e., query about the structure of data. In bioinformatics for example, it is typical t...
We present a novel message passing algorithm for approximating the MAP problem in graphical models. The algorithm is similar in structure to max-product but unlike max-product it ...
Life science researchers frequently need to query large protein data sets in a variety of different ways. Protein data sets have a rich structure that includes its primary structu...
