Bacteriophage Enumeration and Detection Methods

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Application of phages as alternative antimicrobials to combat pathogenic bacteria and their association to a healthy gut microbiome has prompted a need for precise methods for detection and enumeration of phage particles.

HUGE: An Efficient and Scalable Subgraph Enumeration System [PDF]

open access: yesSIGMOD Conference, 2021
Subgraph enumeration is a fundamental problem in graph analytics, which aims to find all instances of a given query graph on a large data graph. In this paper, we propose a system called HUGE to efficiently process subgraph enumeration at scale in the ...

Viability droplet digital polymerase chain reaction accurately enumerates probiotics and provides insight into damage experienced during storage

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Probiotics are typically enumerated by agar plate counting (PC) techniques. PC has several limitations including poor specificity, high variability, inability to enumerate dead cells, viable but non-culturable cells and cells in complex matrices ...

Deep Reinforcement Learning for Join Order Enumeration [PDF]

open access: yesaiDM@SIGMOD, 2018
Join order selection plays a significant role in query performance. However, modern query optimizers typically employ static join order enumeration algorithms that do not incorporate feedback about the quality of the resulting plan.

A generalization of the quadrangulation relation to constellations and hypermaps [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2013
Constellations and hypermaps generalize combinatorial maps, $\textit{i.e.}$ embedding of graphs in a surface, in terms of factorization of permutations.

A bijection between planar constellations and some colored Lagrangian trees [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2003
Constellations are colored planar maps that generalize different families of maps (planar maps, bipartite planar maps, bi-Eulerian planar maps, planar cacti, ...) and are strongly related to factorizations of permutations.

Counting the Undercounted: Enumerating Rural Homelessness in Canada

open access: yesInternational Journal on Homelessness, 2022
Until recently, homelessness in Canada was largely considered to be an urban phenomenon. This assumption has been reinforced by homelessness interventions that primarily focus on urban areas.

GPU-Accelerated Subgraph Enumeration on Partitioned Graphs

open access: yesSIGMOD Conference, 2020
Subgraph enumeration is important for many applications such as network motif discovery and community detection. Recent works utilize graphics processing units (GPUs) to parallelize subgraph enumeration, but they can only handle graphs that fit into the ...

The Essential Role of Empirical Validation in Legislative Redistricting Simulation

open access: yesStatistics and Public Policy, 2020
As granular data about elections and voters become available, redistricting simulation methods are playing an increasingly important role when legislatures adopt redistricting plans and courts determine their legality.
