Background: Although short interfering RNA (siRNA) has been widely used for studying gene functions in mammalian cells, its gene silencing efficacy varies markedly and there are o...
We show how a random mutation hill climber that does multilevel selection utilizes transposition to escape local optima on the discrete Hierarchical-If-And-Only-If (HIFF) problem....
The resolution of a Multi-Objective Optimization Problem (MOOP) does not end when the Pareto-optimal set is found. In real problems, a single solution must be selected. Ideally, t...
— Given two versions of a file, a current version located on one machine and an outdated version known only to another machine, the remote file synchronization problem is how t...
Face verification in the presence of age progression is an important problem that has not been widely addressed. In this paper, we study the problem by designing and evaluating dis...
