In many data-publishing applications, the data owner needs to protect sensitive information pertaining to individuals. Meanwhile, certain information is required to be published. T...
Abstract. Haplotype inference has relevant biological applications, and represents a challenging computational problem. Among others, pure parsimony provides a viable modeling appr...
In this paper we present a general logical framework for (weighted) MAX-SAT problem, and study properties of inference rules for branch and bound MAX-SAT solver. Several rules, wh...
The problems of dimension reduction and inference of statistical dependence are addressed by the modeling framework of learning gradients. The models we propose hold for Euclidean...
