In this work, we explore the cross-scale similarity in crowd counting scenario, in which the regions of different scales often exhibit high visual similarity. This feature is universal both within an image and across different images,…
This paper proposed a new method to build the large scale DNA sequences search system based on web search engine technology. We give a very brief introduction for the methods used in search engine first. Then how to build a DNA search…
Challenges of assessing complexity and clonality in populations of mixed species arise in diverse areas of modern biology, including estimating diversity and clonality in microbiome populations, measuring patterns of T and B cell clonality,…
DNA is now firmly established as a versatile and robust platform for achieving synthetic nanostructures. While the folding of single molecules into complex structures is routinely achieved through engineering basepair sequences, much less…
Selecting appropriate datasets is critical in modern computer vision. However, no general-purpose tools exist to evaluate the extent to which two datasets differ. For this, we propose representing images - and by extension datasets - using…
Many DNA profiles recovered from crime scene samples are of a quality that does not allow them to be searched against, nor entered into, databases. We propose a method for the comparison of profiles arising from two DNA samples, one or both…
Efficiently solving NP-complete problems-such as protein structure prediction, cryptographic decryption, and vulnerability detection-remains a central challenge in computer science. Traditional electronic computers, constrained by the…
The population size ("abundance") of wildlife species has central interest in ecological research and management. Distance sampling is a dominant approach to the estimation of wildlife abundance for many vertebrate animal species. One…
Reference-guided DNA sequencing and alignment is an important process in computational molecular biology. The amount of DNA data grows very fast, and many new genomes are waiting to be sequenced while millions of private genomes need to be…
Diversity measurement underpins the study of biological systems, but measures used vary across disciplines. Despite their common use and broad utility, no unified framework has emerged for measuring, comparing and partitioning diversity.…
Artificial synthesis of DNA molecules is an essential part of the study of biological mechanisms. The design of a synthetic DNA molecule usually involves many objectives. One of the important objectives is to eliminate short sequence…
This commentary discusses a recently proposed measure of heterogeneity of DNA sequences and compares with the measures of complexity.
This article concerns testing for equality of distribution between groups. We focus on screening variables with shared distributional features such as common support, modes and patterns of skewness. We propose a Bayesian testing method…
Since the arrival of next-generation sequencing technologies the amount of genetic sequencing data has increased dramatically. This has has fueled an increase in human genetics research. At the same time, with the recent advent of…
For nearly 50 years microbiologists have been determining prokaryotic genome relatedness by means of nucleic acid reassociation kinetics. These methods, however, are technically challenging, difficult to reproduce, and - given the time and…
The goal of clustering is to group similar objects into meaningful partitions. This process is well understood when an explicit similarity measure between the objects is given. However, far less is known when this information is not readily…
Sequencing by synthesis is the underlying technology for many next-generation DNA sequencing platforms. We developed a new model, the fixed flow cycle model, to derive the distributions of sequence length for a given number of flow cycles…
We consider the problem of program clone search, i.e. given a target program and a repository of known programs (all in executable format), the goal is to find the program in the repository most similar to the target program - with…
We use nucleosome maps obtained by high-throughput sequencing to study sequence specificity of intrinsic histone-DNA interactions. In contrast with previous approaches, we employ an analogy between a classical one-dimensional fluid of…
Rapid analysis of DNA sequences is important in preventing the evolution of different viruses and bacteria during an early phase, early diagnosis of genetic predispositions to certain diseases (cancer, cardiovascular diseases), and in DNA…
