We address the problem of detecting consensus motifs, that occur with subtle variations, across multiple sequences. These are usually functional domains in DNA sequences such as t...
Variational methods for model comparison have become popular in the neural computing/machine learning literature. In this paper we explore their application to the Bayesian analys...
Data privacy laws have appeared recently, such as the HIPAA laws for protecting medical records, and the PCI guidelines for protecting Credit Card information. Data privacy can be...
Distributed computation of Voronoi cells in sensor networks, i.e. computing the locus of points in a sensor field closest to a given sensor, is a key building block that supports...
If all features causing heterogeneity were observed, a mixture of experts approach (Jacobs et al., 1991) is likely to be superior to using a single model. When unobserved or very n...
