In previous work on point matching, a set of points is often treated as an instance of a joint distribution to exploit global relationships in the point set. For nonrigid shapes, h...
Motivation: For many biotechnological purposes, it is desirable to redesign proteins to be more structurally and functionally stable at higher temperatures. For example, chemical ...

We present a novel framework based on hidden Markov models (HMMs) for matching feature point sets, which capture the shapes of object contours of interest. Point matching algorith...
For a graph G and a collection of vertex pairs {(s1, t1), . . . , (sk, tk)}, the k disjoint paths problem is to find k vertex-disjoint paths P1, . . . , Pk, where Pi is a path fr...
We propose a number of techniques for obtaining a global ranking from data that may be incomplete and imbalanced — characteristics that are almost universal to modern datasets co...
