Background: Distance-based methods are popular for reconstructing evolutionary trees thanks to their speed and generality. A number of methods exist for estimating distances from ...
—In the last few years, long-distance WiFi networks have been used to provide Internet connectivity in rural areas. The strong requirement to support real-time applications in th...
Some alternatives to the standard evalb measures for parser evaluation are considered, principally the use of a tree-distance measure, which assigns a score to a linearity and anc...
We show that the minimum distance of a linear code is not approximable to within any constant factor in random polynomial time (RP), unless nondeterministic polynomial time (NP) eq...
Abstract—Distance estimation is fundamental for many functionalities of wireless sensor networks and has been studied intensively in recent years. A critical challenge in distanc...
