Identification of Transcription Factor Binding Site (TFBS) motifs in multiple DNA upstream sequences is important in understanding the mechanism of gene regulation. This identific...
Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) has been successfully applied to those combinatorial optimization problems which can be translated into a graph exploration. Artificial ants build s...
This paper develops rare event simulation methods for the estimation of portfolio credit risk -- the risk of losses to a portfolio resulting from defaults of assets in the portfol...
XPORT is a profile-driven distributed data dissemination system that supports an extensible set of data types, profiles types, and optimization metrics. XPORT efficiently implemen...
Abstract. In this paper, we present a constraint-partitioning approach for finding local optimal solutions of large-scale mixed-integer nonlinear programming problems (MINLPs). Ba...
