A new decoding algorithm for hidden Markov models improves the prediction of the topology of all-beta membrane proteins
Background: Structure prediction of membrane proteins is still a challenging computational problem. Hidden Markov models (HMM) have been successfully applied to the problem of pre...

Delaunay-Triangulation Based Complete Coverage in Wireless Sensor Networks
—One of the major issues in a wireless sensor network (WSN) is how to cover an interested area. In this paper, we consider the area coverage problem for variable sensing radii WS...

Maximizing the Number of Independent Labels in the Plane
In this paper, we consider a map labeling problem to maximize the number of independent labels in the plane. We first investigate the point labeling model that each label can be ...

Proof labeling schemes
The problem of verifying a Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) was introduced by Tarjan in a sequential setting. Given a graph and a tree that spans it, the algorithm is required to check...
