Evaluating performance of image segmentation criteria and techniques
The image segmentation problem is to delineate, or segment, a salient feature in an image. As such, this is a bipartition problem with the goal of separating the foreground from the background. An NP-hard optimization problem, the Normalized Cut problem,

Multi-machine energy-aware scheduling
The traditional set of manufacturing scheduling problems concern general and easy-to-measure economic objectives such as makespan and tardiness. The variable nature of energy costs over the course of the day remains mostly ignored by most previous ...

QR Factorization of Tall and Skinny Matrices in a Grid Computing Environment [PDF]
Previous studies have reported that common dense linear algebra operations do not achieve speed up by using multiple geographical sites of a computational grid. Because such operations are the building blocks of most scientific applications, conventional

Spaced seeds improve k-mer-based metagenomic classification [PDF]
Metagenomics is a powerful approach to study genetic content of environmental samples that has been strongly promoted by NGS technologies. To cope with massive data involved in modern metagenomic projects, recent tools [4, 39] rely on the analysis of k ...

On the design of custom packs: grouping of medical disposable items for surgeries [PDF]
A custom pack combines medical disposable items into a single sterile package that is used for surgical procedures. Although custom packs are gaining importance in hospitals due to their potential benefits in reducing surgery setup times, little is known

SUPERT: Towards New Frontiers in Unsupervised Evaluation Metrics for Multi-Document Summarization
We study unsupervised multi-document summarization evaluation metrics, which require neither human-written reference summaries nor human annotations (e.g. preferences, ratings, etc.).

Reaction Mechanism of [NiFe] Hydrogenase Studied by Computational Methods.
[NiFe] hydrogenases catalyze the reversible conversion of molecular hydrogen to protons and electrons. This seemingly simple reaction has attracted much attention because of the prospective use of H2 as a clean fuel.
