Electing a leader is a classical problem in distributed computing system. Synchronization between processes often requires one process acting as a coordinator. If an elected leader node fails, the other nodes of the system need to elect…

Crowdsourcing provides a popular paradigm for data collection at scale. We study the problem of selecting subsets of workers from a given worker pool to maximize the accuracy under a budget constraint. One natural question is whether we…

In this work, we aim to study when learned models are better hash functions, particular for hash-maps. We use lightweight piece-wise linear models to replace the hash functions as they have small inference times and are sufficiently general…

For unstructured experimental units, the minimum aberration due to Fries and Hunter (1980) is a popular criterion for choosing regular fractional factorial designs. Following which, many related studies have focused on multi-stratum…

We present a quantum feature-selection framework based on a higher-order unconstrained binary optimization (HUBO) formulation that explicitly incorporates multivariate dependencies beyond standard quadratic encodings. In contrast to…

High dimensionality in datasets produced by microarray technology presents a challenge for Machine Learning (ML) algorithms, particularly in terms of dimensionality reduction and handling imbalanced sample sizes. To mitigate the explained…

In many real-world problems and applications, finding only a single element, even though the best, among all possible candidates, cannot fully meet the requirements. We may wish to have a collection where each individual is not only…

Complex queries for massive data analysis jobs have become increasingly commonplace. Many such queries contain com- mon subexpressions, either within a single query or among multiple queries submitted as a batch. Conventional query…

DNA sequencing, especially of microbial genomes and metagenomes, has been at the core of recent research advances in large-scale comparative genomics. The data deluge has resulted in exponential growth in genomic datasets over the past…

Collaborative filtering is a useful technique for exploiting the preference patterns of a group of users to predict the utility of items for the active user. In general, the performance of collaborative filtering depends on the number of…

Collaborative filtering models generally perform better than content-based filtering models and do not require careful feature engineering. However, in the cold-start scenario collaborative information may be scarce or even unavailable,…

Within the task of collaborative filtering two challenges for computing conditional probabilities exist. First, the amount of training data available is typically sparse with respect to the size of the domain. Thus, support for higher-order…

The amount of completely sequenced chloroplast genomes increases rapidly every day, leading to the possibility to build large-scale phylogenetic trees of plant species. Considering a subset of close plant species defined according to their…

The particle swarm approach provides a low complexity solution to the optimization problem among various existing heuristic algorithms. Recent advances in the algorithm resulted in improved performance at the cost of increased computational…

Increasing storage sizes and WiFi/Bluetooth capabilities of mobile devices have made them a good platform for opportunistic content sharing. In this work we propose a network model to study this in a setting with two characteristics: 1.…

In this paper, we propose a quantum algorithm that supports a real-valued higher-order unconstrained binary optimization (HUBO) problem. This algorithm is based on the Grover adaptive search that originally supported HUBO with integer…

Counting the frequencies of k-mers in read libraries is often a first step in the analysis of high-throughput sequencing experiments. Infrequent k-mers are assumed to be a result of sequencing errors. The frequent k-mers constitute a…

This work considers clustering nodes of a largely incomplete graph. Under the problem setting, only a small amount of queries about the edges can be made, but the entire graph is not observable. This problem finds applications in…

This work focuses on a comparison between the performances of two well-known Swarm algorithms: Cuckoo Search (CS) and Firefly Algorithm (FA), in estimating the parameters of Software Reliability Growth Models. This study is further…

With the growing popularity, the number of data sources and the amount of data has been growing very fast in recent years. The distribution of operational data on disperse data sources impose a challenge on processing user queries. In such…
