Abstract. Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation has become a frequently used technique for the treatment of liver cancers, but still remains very difficult to plan. In this paper, w...
We discuss the problem of optimally "finishing" a partially sequenced, reconstructed DNA segment. At first sight, this appears to be computationally hard. We construct a...
Modern medical imaging systems often rely on complicated hardware and sophisticated algorithms to produce useful digital images. It is essential that the imaging hardware and any ...
Simulated annealing (SA) and deterministic continuation are well-known generic approaches to global optimization. Deterministic continuation is computationally attractive but produ...
The problem of computing low rank approximations of matrices is considered. The novel aspect of our approach is that the low rank approximations are on a collection of matrices. W...
