Streaming Algorithms for Partitioning Integer Sequences

by Christian Konrad
"... Abstract. We study the problem of partitioning integer sequences in the one-pass data stream-ing model. Given is an input stream of integers X ∈ {0, 1,...,m}n of length n with maximum element m, and a parameter p. The goal is to output the positions of separators splitting the input stream into p co ..."

Muscle: multiple sequence alignment with high accuracy and high throughput

by Robert C. Edgar - NUCLEIC ACIDS RES , 2004
"... We describe MUSCLE, a new computer program for creating multiple alignments of protein sequences. Elements of the algorithm include fast distance estimation using kmer counting, progressive alignment using a new profile function we call the logexpectation score, and refinement using tree-dependent r ..."

A Highly Adaptive Distributed Routing Algorithm for Mobile Wireless Networks

by Vincent D. Park, M. Scott Corson , 1997
"... We present a new distributed routing protocol for mobile, multihop, wireless networks. The protocol is one of a family of protocols which we term "link reversal" algorithms. The protocol's reaction is structured as a temporally-ordered sequence of diffusing computations; each computat ..."

"... Computer codes for computation and comparison of RNA secondary structures, the Vienna RNA package, are presented, that are based on dynamic programming algorithms and aim at predictions of structures with minimum free energies as well as at computations of the equilibrium partition functions and bas ..."

Interior Point Methods in Semidefinite Programming with Applications to Combinatorial Optimization

by Farid Alizadeh - SIAM Journal on Optimization , 1993
"... We study the semidefinite programming problem (SDP), i.e the problem of optimization of a linear function of a symmetric matrix subject to linear equality constraints and the additional condition that the matrix be positive semidefinite. First we review the classical cone duality as specialized to S ..."
Abstract - Cited by 547 (12 self) - Add to MetaCart
mechanical way to algorithms for SDP with proofs of convergence and polynomial time complexity also carrying over in a similar fashion. Finally we study the significance of these results in a variety of combinatorial optimization problems including the general 0-1 integer programs, the maximum clique

Factoring wavelet transforms into lifting steps

by Ingrid Daubechies, Wim Sweldens - J. FOURIER ANAL. APPL , 1998
"... This paper is essentially tutorial in nature. We show how any discrete wavelet transform or two band subband filtering with finite filters can be decomposed into a finite sequence of simple filtering steps, which we call lifting steps but that are also known as ladder structures. This decompositio ..."

Davenport-Schinzel Sequences and Their Geometric Applications

by Pankaj K. Agarwal , Micha Sharir , 1998
"... An (n; s) Davenport-Schinzel sequence, for positive integers n and s, is a sequence composed of n distinct symbols with the properties that no two adjacent elements are equal, and that it does not contain, as a (possibly non-contiguous) subsequence, any alternation a \Delta \Delta \Delta b \Delta \ ..."

Approximate Frequency Counts over Data Streams

by Gurmeet Singh Manku, Rajeev Motwani - VLDB , 2002
"... We present algorithms for computing frequency counts exceeding a user-specified threshold over data streams. Our algorithms are simple and have provably small memory footprints. Although the output is approximate, the error is guaranteed not to exceed a user-specified parameter. Our algorithms can e ..."

Multilevel hypergraph partitioning: Application in VLSI domain

by George Karypis, Rajat Aggarwal, Vipin Kumar, Shashi Shekhar - IEEE TRANS. VERY LARGE SCALE INTEGRATION (VLSI) SYSTEMS , 1999
"... In this paper, we present a new hypergraphpartitioning algorithm that is based on the multilevel paradigm. In the multilevel paradigm, a sequence of successively coarser hypergraphs is constructed. A bisection of the smallest hypergraph is computed and it is used to obtain a bisection of the origina ..."

Recovering non-rigid 3D shape from image streams

by Christoph Bregler, Aaron Hertzmann, Henning Biermann - Conf. on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition , 2000
"... This paper addresses the problem of recovering 3D nonrigid shape models from image sequences. For example, given a video recording of a talking person, we would like to estimate a 3D model of the lips and the full face and its internal modes of variation. Many solutions that recover 3D shape from 2D ..."
