Short Paper - The Binary Linearization Complexity of Pseudo-Boolean Functions

open access: yesOpen Journal of Mathematical Optimization
We consider the problem of linearizing a pseudo-Boolean function $f : \lbrace 0,1\rbrace ^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ by means of $k$ Boolean functions. Such a linearization yields an integer linear programming formulation with only $k$ auxiliary variables.

PATHLOGIC-S: a scalable Boolean framework for modelling cellular signalling. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Curated databases of signal transduction have grown to describe several thousand reactions, and efficient use of these data requires the development of modelling tools to elucidate and explore system properties.

Generating reversible circuits from higher-order functional programs

open access: yes, 2016
Boolean reversible circuits are boolean circuits made of reversible elementary gates. Despite their constrained form, they can simulate any boolean function.

Symbolic Model Checking for Asynchronous Boolean Programs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Software model checking problems generally contain two differ ent types of non-determinism: 1) non-deterministically chosen values; 2) the choice of interleaving among threads. Most modern software model check ers can handle only one source of non-determinism efficiently, but not both.

A Special Role of Boolean Quadratic Polytopes among Other Combinatorial Polytopes

open access: yesМоделирование и анализ информационных систем, 2016
We consider several families of combinatorial polytopes associated with the following NP-complete problems: maximum cut, Boolean quadratic programming, quadratic linear ordering, quadratic assignment, set partition, set packing, stable set, 3-assignment.

Generalized Totalizer Encoding for Pseudo-Boolean Constraints

open access: yes, 2015
Pseudo-Boolean constraints, also known as 0-1 Integer Linear Constraints, are used to model many real-world problems. A common approach to solve these constraints is to encode them into a SAT formula.

Pseudo Boolean Programming for Partially Ordered Genomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Comparing genomes of different species is a crucial problem in comparative genomics. Different measures have been proposed to compare two genomes: number of common intervals, number of adjacencies, number of reversals, etc. These measures are classically used between two totally ordered genomes.

Rewriting Models of Boolean Programs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We show that rewrite systems can be used to give semantics to imperative programs with boolean variables, a class of programs used in software model-checking as over- or underapproximations of real programs. We study the classes of rewrite systems induced by programs with different features like procedures, concurrency, or dynamic thread creation, and ...

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Optimization-Based Approaches to Control of Probabilistic Boolean Networks

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2017
Control of gene regulatory networks is one of the fundamental topics in systems biology. In the last decade, control theory of Boolean networks (BNs), which is well known as a model of gene regulatory networks, has been widely studied.
