Assessing strategic, tactical and operational alignment factors for SMEs: Alignment across the organisation's value chain [PDF]

, 2008
The strategic use of Information Technology (IT), better known as strategic alignment, has significantly increased, as a result of the strong dependence of organisational activity on Information Systems (IS) and their related technologies.

Getting aligned on representational alignment

CoRR, 2023
Biological and artificial information processing systems form representations of the world that they can use to categorize, reason, plan, navigate, and make decisions. How can we measure the similarity between the representations formed by these diverse systems? Do similarities in representations then translate into similar behavior?

Multiple alignment by aligning alignments [PDF]

Bioinformatics, 2007
Abstract Motivation: Multiple sequence alignment is a fundamental task in bioinformatics. Current tools typically form an initial alignment by merging subalignments, and then polish this alignment by repeated splitting and merging of subalignments to obtain an improved final alignment. In general this form-and-polish strategy consists of

Aligning alignments exactly [PDF]

Proceedings of the eighth annual international conference on Computational molecular biology - RECOMB '04, 2004
A basic computational problem that arises in both the construction and local-search phases of the best heuristics for multiple sequence alignment is that of aligning the columns of two multiple alignments. When the scoring function is the sum-of-pairs objective and induced pairwise alignments are evaluated using linear gap-costs, we call this problem ...

MP-Align: alignment of metabolic pathways [PDF]

BMC Systems Biology, 2014
Abstract Background Comparing the metabolic pathways of different species is useful for understanding metabolic functions and can help in studying diseases and engineering drugs. Several comparison techniques for metabolic pathways have been introduced in the literature as a first attempt in this direction.

The whole alignment and nothing but the alignment: the problem of spurious alignment flanks [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 2008
Pairwise sequence alignment is a ubiquitous tool for inferring the evolution and function of DNA, RNA and protein sequences. It is therefore essential to identify alignments arising by chance alone, i.e. spurious alignments. On one hand, if an entire alignment is spurious, statistical techniques for identifying and eliminating it are well known. On the

Association between sagittal spinopelvic alignment and femoral head destruction in the early stage of rapidly destructive coxopathy

Bone & Joint Open, 2022
Aims: This study aimed to evaluate sagittal spinopelvic alignment (SSPA) in the early stage of rapidly destructive coxopathy (RDC) compared with hip osteoarthritis (HOA), and to identify risk factors of SSPA for destruction of the femoral head within 12 ...

RayCloudTools: A Concise Interface for Analysis and Manipulation of Ray Clouds

IEEE Access, 2021
We describe a new toolset for the manipulation and analysis of ray clouds (3D maps defined by a set of rays from a moving lidar to the scanned surfaces). Unlike point clouds, ray clouds contain information on free-space (air) as well as surface geometry.

Improving word alignment using syntactic dependencies [PDF]

, 2008
We introduce a word alignment framework that facilitates the incorporation of syntax encoded in bilingual dependency tree pairs. Our model consists of two sub-models: an anchor word alignmentmodel which aims to find a set of high-precision anchor links ...

MoCoUTRL: a momentum contrastive framework for unsupervised text representation learning

Connection Science, 2023
This paper presents MoCoUTRL: a Momentum Contrastive Framework for Unsupervised Text Representation Learning. This model improves two aspects of recently popular contrastive learning algorithms in natural language processing (NLP).
