A database of phylogenetically atypical genes in archaeal and bacterial genomes, identified using the DarkHorse algorithm
Background: The process of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is believed to be widespread in Bacteria and Archaea, but little comparative data is available addressing its occurrence ...

Rate-Distortion via Markov Chain Monte Carlo
We propose an approach to lossy source coding, utilizing ideas from Gibbs sampling, simulated annealing, and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The idea is to sample a reconstructio...
