Regression testing is an essential activity to assure that software code changes do not adversely affect existing functionalities. With the wide adoption of Continuous Integration (CI) in software projects, which increases the frequency of…

Time series forecasting is a challenging task with applications in a wide range of domains. Auto-regression is one of the most common approaches to address these problems. Accordingly, observations are modelled by multiple regression using…

The ability to identify the designer of engineered biological sequences -- termed genetic engineering attribution (GEA) -- would help ensure due credit for biotechnological innovation, while holding designers accountable to the communities…

Thanks to unprecedented language understanding and generation capabilities of large language model (LLM), Retrieval-augmented Code Generation (RaCG) has recently been widely utilized among software developers. While this has increased…

Modern DNA sequencing technologies enable geneticists to rapidly identify genetic variation among many human genomes. However, isolating the minority of variants underlying disease remains an important, yet formidable challenge for medical…

Imitation learning demonstrates remarkable performance in various domains. However, imitation learning is also constrained by many prerequisites. The research community has done intensive research to alleviate these constraints, such as…

Software engineers use regular expressions (regexes) across a wide range of domains and tasks. To support regexes, software projects must integrate a regex engine, whether provided natively by the language runtime (e.g., Python's re) or…

Robots are increasingly becoming part of our daily lives, interacting with both the environment and humans to perform their tasks. The software of such robots often undergoes upgrades, for example, to add new functionalities, fix bugs, or…

We introduce ADAPQUEST, a software tool written in Java for the development of adaptive questionnaires based on Bayesian networks. Adaptiveness is intended here as the dynamical choice of the question sequence on the basis of an evolving…

In recent years, several machine learning approaches have been proposed to predict gene expression and epigenetic signals from the DNA sequence alone. These models are often used to deduce, and, to some extent, assess putative new…

Evolutionary algorithms rely very heavily on randomized behavior. Execution speed, therefore, depends strongly on how we implement randomness, such as our choice of pseudorandom number generator, or the algorithms used to map pseudorandom…

Regression testing is performed to provide confidence that changes in a part of software do not affect other parts of the software. An execution of all existing test cases is the best way to re-establish this confidence. However, regression…

This paper introduces a distributed, GPU-centric experience replay system, GEAR, designed to perform scalable reinforcement learning (RL) with large sequence models (such as transformers). With such models, existing systems such as Reverb…

NeuroEvolution is one of the most competitive evolutionary learning frameworks for designing novel neural networks for use in specific tasks, such as logic circuit design and digital gaming. However, the application of benchmark methods…

In general, we can not use algebraic or enumerative methods to optimize a quality control (QC) procedure so as to detect the critical random and systematic analytical errors with stated probabilities, while the probability for false…

Genetic algorithm (GA) is typically used to solve nonlinear model predictive control's optimization problem. However, the size of the search space in which the GA searches for the optimal control inputs is crucial for its applicability to…

We propose to use a quality estimator and evolutionary methods to search the latent space of generative adversarial networks trained on small, difficult datasets, or both. The new method leads to the generation of significantly higher…

A challenge in developing machine learning regression models is that it is difficult to know whether maximal performance has been reached on a particular dataset, or whether further model improvement is possible. In biology this problem is…

Metamorphic testing is a popular approach that aims to alleviate the oracle problem in software testing. At the core of this approach are Metamorphic Relations (MRs), specifying properties that hold among multiple test inputs and…

The main contribution of this paper is a simple semi-supervised pipeline that only uses the original training set without collecting extra data. It is challenging in 1) how to obtain more training data only from the training set and 2) how…
