Predicting prostate cancer recurrence via maximizing the concordance index
In order to effectively use machine learning algorithms, e.g., neural networks, for the analysis of survival data, the correct treatment of censored data is crucial. The concordan...

Quasirandom Load Balancing
We propose a simple distributed algorithm for balancing indivisible tokens on graphs. The algorithm is completely deterministic, though it tries to imitate (and enhance) a random ...

Distributed Detection over Time Varying Networks: Large Deviations Analysis
—We apply large deviations theory to study asymptotic performance of running consensus distributed detection in sensor networks. Running consensus is a stochastic approximation t...

Algebraic correction methods for computational assessment of clone overlaps in DNA fingerprint mapping
Background: The Sulston score is a well-established, though approximate metric for probabilistically evaluating postulated clone overlaps in DNA fingerprint mapping. It is known t...
