On the Cost of Essentially Fair Clusterings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Clustering is a fundamental tool in data mining. It partitions points into groups (clusters) and may be used to make decisions for each point based on its group. However, this process may harm protected (minority) classes if the clustering algorithm does

Context-Aware Hierarchical Online Learning for Performance Maximization in Mobile Crowdsourcing

open access: yes, 2018
In mobile crowdsourcing (MCS), mobile users accomplish outsourced human intelligence tasks. MCS requires an appropriate task assignment strategy, since different workers may have different performance in terms of acceptance rate and quality.

The Non-Uniform k-Center Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper, we introduce and study the Non-Uniform k-Center problem (NUkC). Given a finite metric space $(X,d)$ and a collection of balls of radii $\{r_1\geq \cdots \ge r_k\}$, the NUkC problem is to find a placement of their centers on the metric ...

Earthquake Arrival Association with Backprojection and Graph Theory

open access: yes, 2019
The association of seismic wave arrivals with causative earthquakes becomes progressively more challenging as arrival detection methods become more sensitive, and particularly when earthquake rates are high.

Multi-Objective Optimization Method for Multi-Module Micro–Nano Satellite Components Assignment and Layout

open access: yesAerospace
The assembly optimization design of satellite components is a crucial element in the overall design of satellites. In this paper, a novel three-dimensional assembly optimization design problem (3D-AODP) for multi-module micro–nano satellite components is

A nonmonotone GRASP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A greedy randomized adaptive search procedure (GRASP) is an itera- tive multistart metaheuristic for difficult combinatorial optimization problems. Each GRASP iteration consists of two phases: a construction phase, in which a feasible solution is ...

Deciphering transcriptional plasticity in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma reveals alterations in sensory neuron innervation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pancreatic sensory neurons innervating healthy and PDAC tissue were retrogradely labeled and profiled by single‐cell RNA sequencing. Tumor‐associated innervation showed a dominant neurofilament‐positive subtype, altered mitochondrial gene signatures, and reduced non‐peptidergic neurons.

Data-Collection for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: a Network-Flow Heuristic

open access: yes, 2002
The goal of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey is ``to map in detail one-quarter of the entire sky, determining the positions and absolute brightnesses of more than 100 million celestial objects''. The survey will be performed by taking ``snapshots'' through a

Functional Connectivity Linked to Cognitive Recovery After Minor Stroke

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Patients with minor stroke exhibit slowed processing speed and generalized alterations in functional connectivity involving frontoparietal cortex (FPC). The pattern of connectivity evolves over time. In this study, we examine the relationship of functional connectivity patterns to cognitive performance, to determine ...

A computational comparison of several formulations for the multi-period incremental service facility location problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Multi-period Incremental Service Facility Location Problem, which was recently introduced, is a strategic problem for timing the location of facilities and the assignment of customers to facilities in a multi-period environment. Aiming at finding the
