Background: With the advent of high throughput biotechnology data acquisition platforms such as micro arrays, SNP chips and mass spectrometers, data sets with many more variables ...
Tree models are valuable tools for predictive modeling and data mining. Traditional tree-growing methodologies such as CART are known to suffer from problems including greediness,...
In this paper we study the class of weakly quasi-threshold graphs that are obtained from a vertex by recursively applying the operations (i) adding a new isolated vertex, (ii) addi...
Background: Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has allowed bacteria to evolve many new capabilities. Because transferred genes perform many medically important functions, such as conf...
Background: Recent development of mass spectrometry technology enabled the analysis of complex peptide mixtures. A lot of effort is currently devoted to the identification of biom...
